Senate Foreign Relations
Committee Continues New
Program for Qualified
Acceptance Of Treaty.

Washington, Oct. 23.-Four more
reservations were approved by the
senate foreign relations committee
| today as part of its new program
for qualified acceptance of the peace
treaty.
The action brought the number of
reservations approved by the COM
mittee up to Ia, and while it was
said no more were to be considered
for the present, it is considered
likely there will be additions as sem
ate consideration of the treaty pro-
ceeds.
The four accepted by the commit
tee majority today provide for de-
cision by congress as 10 who shall
represent this country in the league
of nations as to what other inter-
national representatives shall be
chosen under the treaty; for valida-
ton of proceedings relative to
enemy. property only insofar as
such proceedings do not violate the
laws of the United States; for re-
nunciation by this government of
any. part>of the German colonies;
and for blanket provision to con-
serve the national honor and vital
interests" of this nation.
Debate Johnson Condition.
One of the, subjects on which
reservations still are to be drafted is
the equality of voting power in the
league, action being delayed until
the senate has acted on two pend
ing committee amendments dealing
with voting strength in the council
and assembly. One of these, by
Senator Johnson, republican, of
California. was debated in the SEN
ate all of today and may be brought
to a roll call tomorrow. 1t gen.
orally is conceded that both will be
defeated.
Not all of the reservations adopted
in committee today had the solid
support of the reservation forces.
