Knox Explains His Vote
Il have voted in the Committee on
Foreign Relations and also in the Sem
ate for the reservations that are at
tached to this resolution of ratifica-
ton, but / intend to vote against the
resolutions of ratification" said Sem
ator Knox of Pennsylvania.
Il voted for the reservations because
wanted to make the treaty as little
harmful and as little obnoxious to our
Constitution as possible, keeping in
vie" the temper of the comm .ttee and
the temper Of the Senate But while
these reservations have been helpful
in that direction, in my deliberate iudg-
ment, formed after the most careful
and painstaking study of this instru-
ment, study undertaken with no
orig nal attitude of unfriendiness to-
ward it, as it stands with these reser-
vations, it is my judgment that it i'm
poses obligations upon the United
States which under our Constitution
cannot be imposed by the treaty-mak-
ing power
"It delegates powers and functions to
an extraneous body of such nature
that only the people of the United
States, by m amendment to the Con-
stitutlon, can confer, and think that
no man need make an apology who

to vote for the resolution Of ratifca-
ton Of this treaty lie would be con-

jury, perjury to the oath of office to
support the Constitution against for-
eign and domestic enem!es-and it has
been assailed by both--and converting
his seat here from seat of honor to
a seat of d shonor."

"The will of the majority in this
chamber is entitled to honest recogni-
ton, and it isn't getting it. The q..ss-
tion now is whether the majority that

Mr.. Underwood warned the Repub-
licans that they would have to shoulder
the responsibility for defeating the
treaty. and declared that the issue
would be taken to the polls in the next
Presidential election.
Senator Harding. Republican,, OF
Ohio, said that the Democrats could
not shift the responsibility for the re-
lection. The Republicans. he said. made
efforts to obtain a compromise on res
ervations all during the Senatc's con-
slderation of the treaty starting in the
Foreign Relations Committee. The
Democrats would not discuss any COM
promise. he said. and he declared that
he would welcome the submission of
the issue to the voters.
There was but one man in TIE
Urited States" said Senator Harding.
"who apparently did not know tnat this
treaty could not be rat fled without
reservations. Why won't YOU accept
the treaty with reservations? We are
giving you the league of nations in it,"
Senator Underwood replied by as
serting that the Democrats again would
vote. against the Lodge resolution of
ratification.

leave the obligations imposed upon the
United States. He continued:
'But your treaty does not mean
peace, far, very far, from it," said Mr..
Borah. "If we are to judge. the future
b the past it means war. Is there any
guaranty of peace other than the guar
anty which comes of the control of the
war-making power by the people? Yet
what great rule of democracy does the
treaty leave unassailed? The people

In his busy day of refusing COM

Leader Hitchcock, after telling Sena-
tor Lenroot, who offered to compromise
ny eliminating the preamble REQUIRE
ment that three of the four principal
powers should assent in writing to the
reservations, that he could not talk
compromise, refused an offer Of Sena-
tor Lodge to permit motion to sub

the Lodge resolution.

No Pledges, Declares Lodge
"If the Senator thinks that Senators
on this side are voting because of
pledges he is mistaken" retorted Mr..
Lodge. "No pledges have been given.
The votes here are free and undic ated,
and on tits side they will not be modi-
fed in my Judgment"
Senator Hoke Smith then surprised
his colleagues by a fat declaration
that ratification with the Lodge re err
vations would be "vastly better" than
ratification with no reservations at
all, although he thought some of the
reservations were too strong.
"Without clarifcation of the lam

understandings would lead 10 disputes.
