Constitutional Convention Has
Hard Shedding in House.
Friends Claim They Will Win;
That Vote Was Not Real Test.
LOSES AMENDMENT
Says He Never Expected To
Win, but Played for Delay.
Speaker LambertsOn Drove
Democrats to Other Side.

The real fight on the convention res
olution came on the Martin amend
ment to restrict the powers of the con-
vention. There was never a chance
that the amendment Would be adopt
ed. Martin says they never hoped
for such luck; that they sought
two things-delay and an opportunity
to disorganize the administration fol-
lowing. They won delays sand even
the convention supporters in the house
contributed to the DISCRIMINATION.
Speaker Lambertson's ruling in re-
fusing the floor to Connolly of Bour-
bon, a emocrat, when he had spoken
ten minutes in opposition to the res
olution was the final act in the trou-
BILE. Earlier in the week the Demo-
Gratis had adopted a caucus agreement
to give unanimous support to the res
olution. Speaker Lambertson's ruling
and the sledgehammer attack of Mar
tin and his followers drove the Id
Democrat votes to the ants.
Martins motion to amend the reso-
luton seemed to be a test vote. 1t
won 48 supporters, while the opposl-
ton, with the backing of the admins
tration, registered but 55 votes.
Twenty-one members were not in the
hall. In a second test-on the Harvey
motion to strike out the resolving
clause-the administration gained
three votes. A total of AS voted for

MAY NOT GO BACK
Wilson's Second Trip to Europe
Not Necessary.
Action of Peace ENJOYS Points
That Way Now.

Paris. Feb. 1.-The peace confer
ence has developed so marked a ten
dency to accept practical application
of the fourteen principles, and to speed
Up it's work the belief was expressed
today that President Wilson may find
a second trip to France unnecessary.
Whether the president will return
after his departure for the United
States two weeks hence is known to
depend not only upon disposition of
the most important problems in the
interim, but also upon the trend of the
conferees' policy after he has with
drawn from the councils and their in
clination to work along the general
lines of the American program.
Just six weeks after his arrival in
France the president felt confident to-
day that the pivotal victories had al
ready been won and that future ac-
ton by the conference will be in strict
adherence to the broad principles in
cluded in the armistice terms. With
in a few days the delegates will have
accomplished the framing of a con-
stitution for the league of nations. in
conformity with the principle of no
annexations, the president believes.
This, in his opinion, will be one of
the most vital accomplishments of the
peace settlement.
Advocates Use of System.
wilson is advocating decentralization
of the peace work to the utmost, in
order to hurry the handling of all de-
tails. The plan for reference of each
great problem to a special committee
is now known to have been adopted
largely at his suggestion. 1t developed
today that he also is urging that more
committees be created to take care of
the lesser questions. leaving the peace
bureau free to center its attention on
only the broad lines of the settlement
and to make decisions on the findings
of the committees.
With all these committees function
| ing simultaneously a pace could be
maintained that would bring the sign
ing of the treaty several weeks nearer
! than was believed possible. The policy
of his intensive work for ten hours
| day is telling on the president. The
last few days, during which he fought
consistently against the policy of
spoliation, were particularly trying.
Despite the fact he is working longer
and harder than at any time since he
| assumed office, the president con-
| tinues to urge a hurry. up policy
| and finds mean for carrying it out.
