ALBERT THINKS HATRED
WILL LAST FOR YEARS

London. Sept 2.--Belgian hatred OF
the Germans must continue for years
I do not doubt that commercial rela-
tions will be resumed; that is natural.
but you can imagine that the hate will
live for a long time" said King Al
bert of the Belgians.
The worst thing the Boches did
after violating our neutrality was to
shoot six hundred civilians Then
there was wanton destruction OF fac
tories and the deportation or civilians,
which took the Germans back to the
pre-mediaeva times. These things
will never be forgotten and forgiven.
Nobody at the beginning thought
the war would last as long as it did
and everybody was surprised it
ended so quickly"
Belgium's people expected more from
the Peace Conference. King Albert
said, but he thought the success or
the league of nations depended on the
spirit in which the nations entered it

Attacks on the peace treaty by
Democratic Senators overshadowed
yesterday all other developments in
the treaty Tight in the Senate.
Senator Reed. in a speech which
held the Senate spellbound from 2
until 6 o'clock. denounced the whole
treaty as "a shameful and traitorous
bargain" and virtually charged
President Wilson with having sur
rendered into the hands of Great
Britain the control of American at-
fairs.
Senator Ashurst sent a telegram to
the President notifying him that he
and about seven other Senators on
the Democratic side would be un-
able to vote against the johnson
amendment to give the United States
the same number OF votes as the
British empire in the league OF ma
tions assembly.
Prepares New Reservations.
Senator Hoke Smith announced that
he had prepared a set Of reserva-
tions which will be similar to those
proposed by the Foreign Relations
Committee, in that they will have
to be accepted by the other powers
before the United States completely
ratihes the treaty. The principal res
ervation will be directed against Ar
ticle X OF the league covenant.
Senator Thomas made public let
ter written by him to the Democratic
committee Of his State. in which he
declared he could not support the
treaty in it's present form and would
vote for strong reservations. Sem
ator Thomas said he was unable to
