In Chicago, the ever caution
"News" takes this definite non-par
tisan stand:
'The fate that has befallen the
amendment thus far voted upon should
overtake al the other unnecessary and
unmeritorious textual amendments o
the treaty. The American public /.
opposed to further delays and i'd,
talk that merely serve to put off th'
return OF peace. II demands enlight
ened action. The treaty can and shou
be ratified with explicit, CAREFUL
drawn reservations designed TO safe
guard established American principles
and policies to prevent friction and
misunde RS landing in the future. The
moderate members of the Senate, re-
CARELESS Of party, have the right view
Of the duty Of that body. Obstinate
and wiiifu. men on either sid" OF the
chamber would wreck the league of

On the other hand, the vote also
showed the treaty could not be rati-
fed without reservations; and. later.
Senator McCunber, by h 8 stand in

lean side were ready to support
strong reservations, as the text Of
the proposed reservations on this

In view Of this deadlock the de-

NlSTINCT signs are at last
visible in the countrv's
- opinion that debate on the
peace treaty may end and
and quickly. The long partisan
vrangle must stop. The Senate
must get together on reservations
and ratify. An increasing amount
Of sober-minded Republican and
Democratic opinion is uniting on
this view.
The defeat of the Shantung
amendment by decisive vote gave
proof that the extremists, Senators
Johnson. Borah, Reed and Gore,
had finally lost their fight to amend
or defeat the league.

Toward View That Treaty
Deadlock Must End

proof that textual changes cannot
9ass and declares:
Although friends Of the treaty had
.wenty votes advantage over those who
proposed to kill the pact by this
amendment they still lacked the two
thirds majority. necessary to carry
ratification. The result, therefore, is
further indication of what amounts
virtually to q deadlock wherein each
side is strong enough to rob the other
Of victory but not strong enough itself
TO achieve triumph.
ut thus becomes increasingly evident
that the only way ratification can be
brought about within reasonable time
is for those opposed to amendments
that would necessitate resubmission
Of the treaty to the signatory powers
to get together in the spirit of compro-
mise and work out program that
will save the situation. It is as futile
now for any group to demand ratifica-
tion without reservations as it is for
another group to insist that the league
Of nations is q delusion which the
United States cannot adopt without
contamination"
inp0l,a.t Republican papers are
taking similar stand. The New
York Tribune has throughout ad-
vocate reservations as against
amendments. "The Philadelphia
less,' a Republican friend of the
eague, now says:
THE real issue now is will the treaty.
De adopted with reservations?
Fourteen reservations are before

Il is expected that they will be re-
ported favorably. They are not equally
meritorious, but it is believed that
majority Of the Senate will vote
for-Nost Of tire reservations as framed.
It will thensssbr. up to the Senate to
adopt the treaty with these reserva-
tionssor elsa defeat it altogether. We
do not believe that the opponents of
