Senate Rejection of Peace
President and Followers True Obstruciionisis,
Says Baltimore Paper; Greatest Crime, Asserts
SsSt Louis STAR; Comment of Some Others

The reaction Of tho nations pres,
to the Senate's rejection of the peace
treaty is epitomized in the following
abstracts from special dispatches tt
The Tribune:
Baltimore News
"As the result stands, the Presiden,
Of the United States and his small
minority following are the true OBJ
structionists of peace, and it Is sin.
cerely to be hoped that when the treaty
is brought back to the Senate next
month he, or at least the needed share
Of his minority group, will truly sense
their position and obligation to the
country"
Baltimore Sun
"Tre friends of the treaty in the Sen
ate, as we'll as it's avowed enemies, as
distinguished from its camouflaged ene-
mics did well in voting gainst the
Lodge mang'ed Documents"
Baltimore American
"Mr. Lodge did not mean to kill the
treaty. Mr.. Lodge wanted to make the
treaty presentable to the Americans OF
the generations to follow. He desired
to make it American in real spirit and
service"
St. Louis Globe Democrat
"The defeat of the treaty and the
sudden adjournment of the Senate is
an amazing event. blow to the coun-
try and a blow to mankind"
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Senator Lodge demonstrated con-
clusively that he could ruin, but could
not rue. The disgrace of the Senate e
impotent conclusion is that this great
epochal measure was defeated by q
technicality on account of personal
vanity and resentment, malice and
selfish pxrtisanship"
Kansas City Star
IA great feeling OF relief swept over
the country this morning when it
earned that the visionary attempt to
plunge the United States into the in
trigues of Old World politics has been
defeated. The vote in the Senate rep
resented the sentiment Of the nation"
St. Paul Pioneer Press
What the people have demanded was
that the treaty should be ratified with
certain reservations. The Republican
majority tried to kill it. Like the Re-
publican majority, the Democratic
minority has consistently given the
country the impression that it is far
more interested in the political eff
'ects of action on the treaty than in
the welfare of the United States"
Detroit Free Press
"Woodrow Wilson is primarily re-
sponsible for the failure of the Paris
treaty to obtain ratification in the
United States Senate. He had been
given plenty of warning regarding
what would happen if he undertook
to impose his particular program or
the Senate against the better judgment
If the majority Of its members, but
lie refused to listen to advice. His
refusal to give in to the moderate res
ervationists under the leadership of
Senator Lodge may have been politics,
but it was not craftsmanship"
San Francisco Chronicle
"lf. says Senator Borah, in sub
stance, we take part in formulating the

morally bound by such decisions. no

Scanning these votes, however, and
taking into account Senators who were
paired, it appeared that only fifteen
Senators voted against ratification in
every form. Fourteen of these were
Republicans; one was Democrat. On
the other Eand, eighty Senator'S voted
for ratification of the treaty in some
form.
"In my opinion, if the President
sends the treaty back to the Senate in

now on | believe that the sentiment of

That will be the keynote Of the popular

Property Rights an Issue

atoVVHty nights an Issue
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 (By The As.
sociated Press).-The Senate's failure
to ratify the peace treaty left on the
hands OF the Administrat on big col.
lection OF knotty problems, chief
erty rights in German ships and other
property of emery aliens seized by the
government in this country. The State
department experts say there is nc
legal sanction for retention Of this
property unless the treaty, which con-
tains provision legalizing 1t, is rati-
fed.
AS corollary to this problem stands
the question of what is to become of the
vast American interests in Germany, es-
pecially if the technical state of war
is to continue and no American consuls
or diplomatic representatives are to be
sent to take up the subject directly.
In these property questions is under
stood to lie one of the chief objections
Of the Administration to the plan Of
Republican leaders to declare the state
OF war ended by a resolution of Con-
gress. Without the treaty provisions,
officials say, n state of peace would leave
this country in an awkward position
when it came to establishing its title to
the German ships and the other German
ntc~es s taken over and in many cases
liquidated by the Alien Enemy Property
Custodian.
Little Effect on A. E. F.
1t was pointed out that the effect of
the Senate's failure to act would be of
a negative Character on with regard
to the American troops in occupied
portions Of Germany War Depart
ment officials said it would mean no
change. in the present disposition,
which had been based entirely on the
terms of the armislce, and which did
not depend in any respect on the terms
of the treaty.
The occupation of Coblenz is regard
ed both by Administration officials and
by all elements in the Senate to be
clearly within the limits of the Presi-
dents power as commander in chief of
the army. His authority to use troops
to carry out any provisions of the
treaty is an entirely different question,
and the War Department already has
conceded the stand of opposition SEN
ators that no such action could be
taken until the Senate had acted.
Although force Of American SOL
'iers has been sent to Coblenz with q
view to their rossb'e use ultimately to
Lelp police the plebi cite in Upper
Siesia Secretary Baker has announced
that they will remain a part of the
Coblenz garrison unless the Senate, by
ratifying the treaty, makes American
participation in the plebiscite strictly
,egal.
In military sense the Senate delay
continues a state Of "suspended hos
tilities," say the War Department off :
cia]s. some Of whom are turning over
N their minds the possibilities Of the
situation should a separate peace with
Germany be necessary. They said this
might be taken up by President Will
son and Secretary Baker as soon as the
Secretary returned from his trip to
Camp Taylor, Kentucky.
