RELIGION, WAR,
BUT NOT TREATY
IS SENATE TALK
Seven-Hour Session Accom-
plishes Nothing = Hopes
of Ending Fight This
Week Dwindle = Ignore
Pending Business F or
''More Timely" Subjects
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE peace
treaty drifted into a doldrums again
today, the senate talking for seven
hours and accomplishing nothing.
Tonight each side was blaming the
other for the delay and hopes of wind
ing up the whole treaty fight this week
were waning rapidly. Technically, the
committee reservations TO article 10
of the league of nations covenant was
before the senate but the debate was
about almost everything else. Start
ing with the Mormon religion. it shiftd
to the IA points, and eliminated in
long speech by Senator Reed, democrat
of Missouri, assailins, the administra-
tion's war policy.
The immediate pending business,
motion by Senator Walsh, democrat of
Montana, to amplify the committee
reservation, scarcely was mentioned.
Although some of the irreconcilable
republicans continued to regard it as
trick to load down the reservations
with obnoxious features, others of that
group were understood to favor its
adoption, and the leaders thought the
vote would be very close.
Senator Reed read to his democratic
colleagues from the democratic cam
paign text book of 1916 to support his
claim that the party's fight for re-
election was based upon a policy of
non-interfernce in European affairs
which he said now had been reversed.
In replying, Senator Robinson. demo-
crat, Arkansas, drew republican Lead
er lodge into the debate by quoting
from a senate address made by MIR.
Lodge last December, declaring it was
the duty Of this country to help the
new weak nations to get on their feet.
81 thought then" said the republican
leader, "and still think it was our duty
TO help establish certain states who
were to be a barrier against Germany,
and to help those states to make a
start. But when I made that state
ment, l had no idea we were to be
handed out a document which would
bind us for all time everywhere.
And, since then, several things have
| happened. We have deprived Poland
of her seaport at Danzig. We have
| declined to give France the left bank
/ of the Rhine and for that reason. we
/ have pending a treaty of alliance tc
/ protect France. We have meddled al
/ Fiume. We have taken Thrace from
the Greeks to whom it belonged. The
| government that so manages Other
\ peoples affairs, ought to get out o.
the business-the sooner the better.

CAN'T AGREE ON
WAGE QUESTION
[RepubIican A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON. Nov. 11.-After
four hour conference today, agree
ment between the railroad administra-
tion and the four brotherhood leaders
apparently was as far away tonight
as at any time since the brotherhood
demands for time and half for over
time in road service and revision of
working conditions were laid before
Director General Hines several months
ago.
Conferring with the director general
were Timothy Shea, president of the
firemen and enginemen; L. z. Shep-
herd. president of the conductors; W.
G. Lee, president of the trainmen and
j. ]. Corrigan, acting for w. s. Stone,
president of the engineers. When the
meeting adjourned, 1t was stated that
the session would resume tomorrow.
While union leaders were understood
TO be insistent in their demands, it
was indicated that all discussions were
amicable. The brotherhood men were
said to realize the force of Director
General Hines argument that he could
make no agreement which further in
cveases pay because of the short time
of the termination of federal control

Simplicity Marks
Nation sW elcome
To English Prince
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-With
simplicity in keeping with ideals of
democracy, Edward prince of Wales,
was welcomed to Washington today
and became the guest of the nation.
Owing partly to the Illness of Presi-
dent Wilson, which prevented his per-
sonal participation, the reception cere-
monies on the arrival of the prince
fwere very informal, although Vice
President Marshall, members of the
cabinet and high officers of the army
and navy stood in drizzling rain at
the station to greet the distinguished
visitor.
The more formal welcome was ex-
tended tonight by Mr.. Marshall, acting
for the president, at his dinner given
in the princes honor at the Perry Bel
mont home, set aside for the use of
the royal party during its three-day
stay in Washington.
After the brief greetings on lis ar
rival and a ride through wet streets
behind a cavalry escort, Prince Ed
wards time was taken up with receiv-
ing formal calls until he broke away
to pay a brief visit to the white house
and make personal inquiries as to the
health of the president. He was re-
ceived by Mrs. Wilson and Miss Mar
garet Wilson but will not see Mr.. Will
son until Thursday. The prince then
will be Mrs. Wilson's guest at tea and
will visit Mr. Wilson in his sick room

KNOX SITS IN SILENCE
(By John Edwin Nevin.)

Senate Chamber, Capitol, Wash
ington, July 10.-Q. N. S.l-The
United States senate today was given
complete power to finish the task OF
ending the war with Germany. Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson, fresh from the.
peace conference at Paris, laid be-
fore the senate--authoriZed under the
Constitution to ratify all treaties
the complete tone of the document
signed by the German delegates and
the representatives of the allied and
associated powers at Versailles. Un-
til that document is ratified or re-
lected, the technical state of war
must continue.
The president raised the issue of
the league Of nations in clear and
unmistakable terms. He told the
senate that the peoples of the world,
"bled white" wanted permanent
peace. He warned that If the league
of nations was not created and its
future assured, there must be an
other and a final war and the world
must be swept clean of every power
that could renew the terror" The
president reviewed the changed atti-
tude of the European statesmen to-
ward the league and then demanded:
"They saw it as the hope of the
world and that hope that they did not
dare disappoint. Shall we or any
other free people hesitate to accept
this great duty? Dare we reject 1t
and break the heart of the world?"
The president was listened to ear
nestly. When he declared that his
services and all the information he
possessed dealing with the treaty
was at the disposal of the foreign
relations committee and of the sem
ate. the advocates Of ratification
nodded their approval.
Harding, of Ohio, and Sterling, of
South Dakota, were among the re-
publican senators who applauded the
president from time to time. Other
republican senators, like Knox, of
Pennsylvania, and Mccormick. OF
Illinois, were among the senatorial
opponents of the league of nations
who did not join the applause.
The presidents tribute to the part
Americas moral force played in
the struggle was greeted with cheer
ing and applause. 1t was a continue
alton of the applause which had
greeted him as he took his place In
front of the presidents chair.
The president read his address
from small typewriter cards, and his
voice was t1rm and carried 10 tne re-
mote portions of the chamber.
The presidents announcement that
he did not intend to confuse the issue
by presenting the special pact be-
tween Great Britain, France and the
United States at this time was re-
ceived with approval by the majority
of the senators. 1t had been recog-
nized that there would be material
opposition to this proposed treaty
even from senator's who favored rati-
fication of the German treaty.
