SENATORS IN CONFERENCE.
Trying to Formulate Policy On League
of Nations.

WASHINGTON, April 30.-Republican
leaders III the next senate last night took
steps toward ascertaining party senti-
ment toward the revised league of nations
covenant and toward the unification of
all Republican senators on the course to
be pursued when the peace treaty, in
Guiding the covenant, comes before the
senate for ratification
The attitude of the Republican sena-
tors will be decided upon at party CON
ference to be held prior to the convening
of congress.
Senator Lodge conferred during the day
with Senator Borah of Idaho, one of the
leading critics of the league of nations
proposal and who has announced that he
could not support the covenant despite
its revision. After the conference the
/ Idaho senator said the discussion had been
+ entirely satisfactory.
Senator Lodge later conferred with Sen
ator Brandegee of Connecticut, a Repub
lican member of the foreign relations
committee This conference was followed
by meeting of Senators Borah, johnson
of California and Norris of Nebraska. AL
though it was admitted that the leagu,
of nations covenant had been discussed
no announcement was made as to the
course of the discussions.
| Senator McNary of Oregon, Republi
can, announced that he would suppor
the league covenant as finally adopted
In my opinion he said, ''the cove
nant has been amended to meet all tn,
/ legitimate objections raised against it

tails or not is insignificant as compared
with the high principle it is calculated
