SHANTUNC kept
IN The TREATY
Foes of the Pact Are Defeated
in Senate Test Vote
on Deal.
RECORD STANDS S. TO IS
Fourteen Republicans Voted Against
the Amendment While but Three
Democrats Favored the Change
in the Treaty of Peace.

Washington, Oct. 1S.-The senate
voted to place the seal of it's ratitica-
ton on the Shantung settlement.
By a vote of 55 to 35, the foreign
relations committee amendment re-
storing Shantung to China was re-
jected.
Senator Lodge, Republican leader,
Immediately upon the announcement
of the roll call, gave notice that he
would offer a motion later to wipe all
reference to Shantung from the
treaty.
The result was no surprise, although
the majority against the amendment
was somewhat larger than had been
anticipated This was caused by the
detection of IA Republicans, all or
whom, however, declared they would
insist upon reservation expressing
Americas disapproval of the Shan
tung award. Most of these senators
opposed the amendment, not because
of any lack of sympathy with its pur-
poses, but because they feared an
amendment might destroy the
treaty.
For the same reason, some of them
will vote against the Johnson amend
ment, to give the United States as
many votes in the league as the Brit
ish empire, and indications ere that
the Johnson amendment will meet the
same fate as the Shantung amend
ment.
