Ill are now beginning to
ring with insistent de-
mands that something be done
about the railroads and be

Americas many reconstruc-

failed in almost every instance.
As regards the biggest of these
problems so far has written

committee on interstate COM
meree has finally reported out
the revised Cummins bill, but
nothing will be done with it un-
til the opponents of the peace

tire of obstruction and agree to
vote on the question of raifica-

mefce is still awaiting the re-
report of the subcommittee or
five on the Esch bill. There is
little prospect of the houses

for a wholly new arrangement .
but for amending the present
laws to facilitate the return of

AMENDMENTS IN

III AVING been beaten OF
~ their program of am
endments to the treaty
of peace, Senator Lodge and
his associates on the foreign re-
lations committee are now try
ing to amend the treaty under
the cover of reservations.
When they vote for reserva-
tions which must be accepted
by three of the allies before the
resolution for ratification be-
comes effective they are in re-
ality voting for amendments.
Three of the allies have no
power to bind the other govern
ments that signed the treaty,
and they certainly have no
power to bind Germany. Twen-
ty-eight nations signed this
treaty through their accredited
representatives. Many of them
have already ratified it. None
of them ever vested in three of |
the allies the authority to ac-l
cept reservations in their name.

Senator Lodge is still trying
to burke the treaty, and a
packed committee on foreign
relations is still assisting him.
Even though three of the allies
consented to the reservations
that are now demanded, a new
diplomatic situation would be
created which might easily re-
quire months to untangle. In
the mean time the United
States would be kept in a state
of war, which is evidently

know Albert's inward feelings

of that; what did he think of
