time for pussy-foOting was passed"
and "it was up to the leaders Of the
Republican majority of the next Con-

know where Republicans were going

Nations"
As Republican Senators continued
today to flock back to the Capitol a.
a result Of the publication of the new
covenant, Senator Lodge. one OF the
first to return, found himself con-
fronted with a situation invested with
more than one serious aspect, il was
stated.
G. o. p. Opinion Divided.
A canvass OF Republican Senators
disclosed a divergence of opinion as
10 how the Republican attitude to-
ward the amended covenant should
lie presented to the country. A num-
her of them expressed the hope that
the Republicans would be able to pre-
gsnt a united front on a subject upon
,Shich so many possibilities hinged.
hut they admitted that they were "at
sea- as TO Just what course Of action
certain Republican Senators were like
lv 10 pursue when the Senate was
called upon to act finally on the
covenant
Senator Borah was insistent that
Republican Senators all disclose
their exact position with relative to
Ebe covenant. It was stated that he
ihad NOT abated one jot or title in his
opposition to the United States being
committed to a league Of nations in
ienv form Whatsoever. Borah's friends
Iedded that he would fight the pro-
posed League OF Nations plan II he
had "to fight it alone"
a bitter debate on the covenant
when il is called UP for consideration
,Sn the Senate, in which Senator'S like
Borah and Sherman will participate,
was foreshadowed by the biting
criticisms already made by them OF
the new document. How extensive
that debate will be was still prob
llematical, it was declared: Senator
Lodge was expected to confer with
other Old Guard Senators like Pen
lSose and Knox Of Pennsylvania, and
iBrandegee of Connecticut before the
weekend.
] 1t was also the prevailing belief
ut the Capitol that a conference OF
abe thfrty-nine Republican Senators
who signed the round robin Of protest
against the original covenant was a
mot unlikely development Of the near
9uture, q conference that might have
considerable TO do with the trend
haken by the caucus the Republican
majority OF the Senate will hold
shortly before the next Congress con-
Nenes.
Upon the attitude assumed by some
of the Old Guard Senators relative to
ahe amended covenant may even
swing, il was also declared, the. still

next Senate.
1t can be stated authoritatively
chat certain Progressive Senators,

terested in the outcome Of the series Of
conferences between Republican Sena-
tors which began today at the Capt.

/ think IL not necessary to di-
rect your attention to other mat
ters, we have previously dis
cussed--the capital significance
of this covenant, the hopes which
are entertained as to the effect it
will have upon steadying the at
fairs Of the world and the obvious
necessity that there should be .

world to maintain Justice in in
ternational relations, the relations
between people and between the
nations OF the world.
Article v Il Altered.
II Baron Maxine will pardons
me for introducing a matter
which absent-mindedly over
looked, it is necessary for me TO
propose the alteration OF several
words in the first line OF Article
V. Let me say that in several
parts OF the treaty. OF which this
covenant will form a part, certain
duties are assigned to the council
o: the League of Nations. In some
instances it is provided that the
action they shall take shall be by
a majority vote. IT is, therefore,
necessary to make the covenant
conform with the other portions
OF the treaty by adding these
words. / will read the first line
and add the words:
Except where otherwise eX-
pressly provided in this covenant,
or by the terms OF this treaty, de-
cisions at any meeting of the as
sembly or OF the council shall re-
quire the agreement of all the
members of the league represent
ed at the meeting.
Except where otherwise eN-
pressly provided in this COW
enant," is the present reading.

the terms OF this treaty. With

PAST WINTER SETS
WARMTH RECORDS
More Sunshine and Less Snow
Than Ever Before in
History.


WASHINGTON, March 25.-There
was more sunshine and less snow
throughout most Of the United States
during the winter Just passed than
ever before in the memory Of the pres
ent generation. In only one section Of
the Countrywide plateau region-was
the weather severe and there low tenn
p%erRture records were established, Snow
falling in November In the plateau re-
gion remained throughout the winter.
Everywhere else, reports to the
weather bureau made available today
show, precipitation was so light n
the temperature so high that nov only
stayed on the ground In a few isolated
instances more than a day or two.
Heretofore low temperatures v
prevailed during winters and there was
a light fall of snow, with the result
that crops, especially or winter wheat
and oats, have suffered. During the
past winter, however, the combination
OF light snow precipitation and high
temperatures have resulted in the rapid
and sturdy growth Of grains. Gener-
ally the temperatures over virtually the
entire country were from five to 10
degrees above normal,
Frequent warm rains and absence OF
severe ''cold snaps also helped crops.
Only in some districts OF the North
east vas there any damage worth re-
cording due to freezing and thawing
with insufficient snow cover. Continued
good weather recently has been help
full especially to fruit bearing plants
and trees and a bumper crops Is prom
ised, Grazing lands likewise have been
benefited.
Bureau statistics show the rather gen.
eral notion that the past winter actually
was the mildest ever known, instead
Of merely one of the mildest, is err
roneous. The winter of 1876 was
considerably warmer as was the win
ter Of 1S77-78. The winter Of 1sS1-s2
was about like that Just past and in
lSSs-1S90 1t was considerably warmer
in the section east Of the Mississippi
river. The winter of 1905 -06 fell slight
y. short Of being as mild a that Of
19l8-19.
