publican senate filibuster. President.

The presidents statement follows:
"a group Of naen in the senate

and to make arbitrary use Of powers
intended to be employed in the in

It is also my duty to be in close con-
tact with the. public business during

make my choice between these two
duties, and I confidently hope that the
people Of the country will think that

ut Is not in the interest Of the right
conduct Of public affairs that !
should call the congress in special
session while it is impossible for me
to be In Washington because .

who have obstructed and prevented
the passage of necessary legislation

Closes.

Washington. March 4.-Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, brought. the
long enate debate on the league of
nations to a climax last midnight with
the introduction of a resolution pro-
posing that the senate record itself
against acceptance of the league con-
stitution as now drawn. He. read to
the senate the names of 81 members
of the new senate which will pass on
the peace treaty, who, he said, had
signed or approved the resolution.
This move by the Massachusetts
ences among Republican leaders and
communications with members and
members-elect who were not in
Washington, came as a surprise to
most. Democratic leaders, but when
the senator asked unanimous consent
for consideration Of the. resolution,
Satisfied that there would be no OPP
jected and the resolution went over.
Satisfied that there would. be on op-
p%ortunity to bring the resolution to a
vote before adjournment of congress,
Senator Lodge then read the list of
senator's thus placing their names in
the record.
Pointing out that 81 Haembers of
the senate could prevent ratification
of the peace treaty because of the re.
quirement Of a two-thirds majority OF
the senator's, Republican leaders said
the effect of their move was to notify
President Wilson and the peace con
ference that as now framed the league
of nations plans was not acceptable
to the new senate.
