Washington, Sept. 24.-The lives oi
American soldiers are of far more mo-
ment' than the sordid, meroenary
considerations which are being urged
in this senate and by international
bankers throughout the land, for the
league of nations Senator Freling-
huysen, republican. New Jersey, de-
clared today in an address attacking
the league covenant and President
Wilson.

inghuysen said, that we should de-
vote our energies to our own troubles
of which the Boston police strike and
the ominous reception given the pres
ident at Seattle are but symptoms,
Referring to the Shantung settle
ment, Senator Frelinghuysen said the
president mot merely tolerates, but
approves and asks us to approve a
dastardly piece of work" The presi-
dents real excuse, he added, is that
Japan otherwise would not sign the
treaty.
III it costs so much to induce Japan
to enter, what price must be paid to
keep her in?" he asked.
Senator Fire inghuysen said he
would vote for all committee amend
ments to the treaty and the four res
eryations to the league covenant and
that he would hesitate to approve the
attack, unless the amendment re-
turning Shan,ung to China was
adopted.

Judgment and understanding by the
American people"
The senator declared visitors to New
Jersey would be told by the vast ma
1ority of people, including many
democrats, that President Wilson was
an autocrat Few of his constituents,

him as an internationalist,

IS AMENDMENT Of
JOHNSON SLATED
FOR SLAUGHTER?
Runor Says That Californian S
Pet Change In League of
Nations May Be Defeated;
No Vote Until Next Week,


Washington, Sept. 24.-Most of the
work on the peace treaty today was
carried on outside the senate cham
Der.
While Senator F1elinguysen, repub-
lican of New Jersey, was delivering "a
Two hour attack on the treaty and its
league of nations covenant, republi-
cans We're trying to reach an agree
ment respecting the method of deal
ing with the amendment by Senator
johnson, republican, California, for
equa.izing the voting power of the
United States and Great Britain in the
league assembly
The Johnson amendment has been
laid aside to be taken up at an ildefi-
mite date, but there were scores of
rumors concerning possible procedure
and one persistent report was that
Senator johnson might insist upon
calling ii up at any moment Some
league advocates put forth the claims
that enough promises had been OBJ
.ained from republicans to make GER
tain its defeat, largely because of the
argument that its adoption might ne
cessitate re-oponlng Of the whole
question of peace negotiations with
Germany
There were no positive statements
from leaders df either side, but there
were more informal conferences than
usual, with the promise that almost
anything might happen on the floor TO
disturb tbs routine proceedings
Under The motion adopted by the
senate Tuesday, when republicans took
actual hold of the handing of the
treaty, a number of amendments by
Senator Fall, republican, New Mexico,
which would relieve the United states
from service on foreign commissions
created by the treaty will be the order
of business Friday. The business,
however, will be mainly speech-mak-
ing, for no vote is expected until next
week
Senator New, republican. Indiana,
expected to speak today but at the last
moment he announced that he would
not speak until tomorrow. Senator
Smith, democrat, Maryland, also gave
notice that he would discuss the treaty
tomorrow, and Senator Cummins, re-
Iowa, has prepared an ad-
dress he hopes to deliver this week.

Paris, Sept. "a (by the AS
sociated Press) In an ex-
planation to the Chamber OF
Deputies, today, Premier Gle
menceau, after declaring that
the league of nations could ex-
ist even though rejected by
the United States senate, as
serted that it was precisely be-
cause the French felt that the
league of nations was an in
sufficient guarantee for some
years to come that the protec-
tive treaties of alliance be-
tween France, Great Britain
and the United States were
arawn up.
The possibility of non-rati-
fication of the peace treaty and
tire covenant of the league of
nations, by the United States
senate; the consequences, in
such event, to the guarantees
for the future of France, and
the question whether the
league could exist without the
United States as a member, oc-
cupied the entire afternoons
debate.
The vote in the United States
senate yesterday, postponing
consideration of one of the
amendments, is regarded as
significant, and caused surprise
in the French chamber. Louis
Barthou repeatedly asked the
government for explanations.
Andre Tardieu and NJ. Pinchon, the
foreign minister, replied, but the
chamber was not satisfied. Premier
Clemenceau then declared that even
in the event of the United States sem
ate not voting for the league of ma
tions covenant. the league could exist.
The treaties constituting a protective
alliance between France, Great Brit
ain and the United States, he added,
were not dependent upon the league.
They would come into force, and
France would be protected.
During the course of NJ Tardieu's
speech, M Barthou interrupted and
demanded an immediate reply as TO
what situation France would be placed
in should the United States not ratify.
He added that it was through delicacy
Il eli
question before, as he wished and
hoped that the senate would finally
begin the discussion and reach its
conclusions But now this seemed
hopeless, and the question must be
settled Immediately as American rati-
fication was distant "if it occurred at
all"
NJ Tardieu declared that he person.
ally was satisfied that the United
States senate would ratify the treaty.
M. Barthou countered, saying that
he was far from satisfied, and citing |
the vote of AZ to 40 on Senator Lodges |
motion for postponement. 'as fair |
warning of the ultimate fate of the |
pact
NJ Pichon's reply that, legally |
speaking the league could exist with |
out Americas participation brought |
the retort from NJ. Barthou that what
France wanted was political guaran-
tees, not legal guarantees. He assert
ed that the government must face the
issue Immediately.
Premier Clemenceau said
Should the United States reject the /
league of nations, two treaties of all-
ance between France and Great Brit
ain and France and the United I
States exist. Nevertheless, it was pre-
cisely because we felt that the league
of nations was an insufficient guar
antee for some years to come that
these treaties We're drawn up The I
league for the present has nothing to
do with the Franco British American
treaties. which constitute sufficient
guarantees for France"
