Hope Of quick ratification Of the

Wants People to Decide.
The position announced By Senator
Lodge Is that the reservations which
were rejected by the Senate did moth
ing.mcre than Americanize the treaty.
Therefore, he wants the people to de-
eide whether there is anything OBJ
jectionable or un-American In them.
He wants to have them studied In
"ever-' household, In every shop and
factc:y throughout the land" so that
the people may decide in electing their
representatives to the next Congress
and in electing the next President
whether or not the treaty should be
accepted as 1t Is or rejected unless
the Americanizing reservations are
attached to It.

be the Craftsmanship of the ways and

reports that William S. Leib, resident

While the inaugural crowds were
gathering the gubernatorial parties
assembled at the executive depart

rived early, gathered his officials
about him and the Sproul party met
in the bgi reception room. There did
not appear to be much cordiality. The
retiring Governor refused to max e
any statements and kept close to his
own friends.
The Governors statement last
write a history evoked considerable e
comment from state officials. They
refused to make statements for pub
lication and some might have burned

their words.
