had been proposed by Lenroot as .
substitute for the defeated johnson
amendment weeks ago.
McNary, Lenroot, and other Repub-
lican Senator'S working for early
ratification did not attach much inn
portance to Hitchcock taking the
same view of the reservation as Vts-
count Grey. They expressed conf
dence that the treaty would be salts

month, or between January 20 and
February /. anyhow.
Senator Lodge Of Massachusetts,.
the Republican leader. was to confer
with Senator Pomerene Of Ohio, one
of the most influential Democratic
Senators, today at the Capitol Consid-
erable Importance was attached to
the expected conference, as Pomerene,
like Senator Underwood, Democrat OF
Alabama, is desirous that . reserve
tion program be adopted without fur
ther delay that will pave the way to
early ratification
1t was predicted that Hitchcock
would not be inclined to raise any
serious objection to the Lenroot res
ervation. especially ~ 1t would be
placing him in the position OF SEEM
ing to reflect the attitude OF Brit
ish official like Viscount Grey.
Pomerene was said to be among
those Democratic Senators who re-
sented the idea Of British Official
'meddling" with a reservation involv-
ing the safeguarding Of American
rights and interests.
The Ohio Senator was to report the
result of his scheduled conference
with Lodge to a gathering of the
Democratic members of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee to be
held tonight at Hitchcock's residence

have been held since the Christmas
recess began, were to be thoroughly
gone into at this gathering, and its
outcome is expected to have an I'M

Republican and Democratic Sena-
tors identified with what has become
known as the "early ratification
group" appeared hopeful that the
dawn Of the New Year would md
both sides approaching an agreement
that would insure ratification not

GIRL SAVES HER GARTER

at the wrong moment nearly wrecked
Oakland's $1,000 patrol wagon!
The wagon was answering a hurry
call. At Twelfth street and Broad
way, in the center of the downtown
district. a girl gowned in silk and
furs started across the street. Half
way over she halted, turned pale and
made q wild clutch for her knee
Pedestrians shouted a warning, but
the girl was oblivious. She stopped
over and began to tumble. The pa
troll wagon opened its siren, executed
a fancy curve, missed the girl by an
inch, careened past a telephone pole
by a narrow margin and righted again.
Then only did the girl streighten
up, bring something blue into view and
continue modestly on her way. She
got the garter, but the patrol Wagon
driver got the scare of his life.
