 WHAT IT REALLY MEANT
Bullitt StartleS Comm. When He Relates His
 Talk With Lansing.
SENATORS BURST
 INTO LAUGHTER

Washington. Sept. 12-Wil- liam C. BuIIitt Of Philadelphia. formerly attached to the Amer jean peace mission, testified before the Senate Foreign Re Iations Committee today that Secretary Lansing told him in Paris last May that if the Sen ate and the American people knew what the treaty meant, ii would be defeated"
 MT, Lansing told me the day ! re- signed" the witness said, that he was opposed to that part of the league covenant relating to a mandate for Armenia. He said he considered the Shanturg award and the League of Nations bad-that the league would be entirely useless; that the nations had arranged the world to suit them selves. and that England and France got what they wanted.
 After saying he realized the Sen ate would defeat the treaty if it real ized it's meaning, MT. Lansing ex- pressed the opinion that Senator knoN really would understand the treaty that Mir. Lodge would, but that Mir. Lodges position would become pure Iy political"
 The committee senators burst into laughter and BuIlitt said he begged to be excused from reading any more from the memorandum of his con versations.
 Bullitt said he was sent to Russia by Secretary Lansing in February tc obtain from the Soviet Government a statement of exact terms on which il would agree to stop fighting on all fronts. Before proceeding, Bullitt said he asked Colonel House a number ot questions bearing on the American DO sition. and House told him. he said that if the Bolsheviki were ready to stop fighting and declare an armistice the United States would approve.
 BuIlitt was in Russia one week and on his return to Paris sent a report tc President Wilson.
 There was serious discussion of con- ditions in Russia and the question of withdrawing troops, Bullitt testified, and it was because of this that he was directed to proceed to PetrOgrad
 From HelsingfOrs Bullitt sent conf idential telegran< to the president Secretary Lansing and Colonel House explaining conditions as he founo them. and saying Lenine and others associated with him realized the need of peace. They were ready, he said to pay their foreign debts. Asked how this information was received by the American mission. Bullitt replied: Colonel House wrote me a, telegram of reorganization, but because it was signed House and Mission it was not sent. The Colonel gave it to me when I got back to Paris
