ment on the treaty
Senators who supported the amend
ment in the foreign relations commit
tee believe there Is little that can be
said in opposition to II, Senator Hiram
Johnson, who introduced it, said that
he could not imagine what argument
could be made against such PROPOSE
ton. He said:
Only Thing Against it,
The only thing that could be said
against IL would be said by those VINO
do not believe that the United Stat es
is entitled to the same representation
az the British empire in such an or
ganization as is proposed to settle
international difficulties.
The sentiment which inspired this
amendment is closely akin to the de-
mand made for defeat OF the treaty by
representatives of the cause OF Irish
freedom, which was so eloquently and
30 forcefuiiy presented to the commit
tee last Saturday. Already the reac-
ton from the presentation of the Irish
plea has set in and senators are being
eeIuged with letters and kilograms
from constituents demanding that they
vote against the treaty as whole.
The committee will give an audience
tomorrow to spok esmsn for Sweden In
the matter of the disposition OF the

poses to give TO Finland
Representations on behalf of Persia
