Dead Issue' Unless Wilson
Resubmits 1t, He Asserts,
but Hitchcock Contends 1t
Hasn't Been Disposed Of
Deadlock Is frightened
Compromise Reservations
Likely To Be Delayed
Until After HOLIDAYS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-The dead
treaty apparently had frightened to-
night, and Republican leaders agreed
to defer action temporarily on the
Lodge resolution, proposing to declare
the war with Germany at an end, al
though meeting of the Foreign Re-
lations Committee for Wednesday was
arranged, Senator Lodge said his
resolution probably would await dspo-
sition by the House of similar pro
posal.
Senator Lodge and Senator Hitch
leader, to-day indicated complete dis
agreement regarding future steps as
to the treaty. The former declared
the next move must come from Presi-
dent Wilson, while Senator Hitchcock,
with equal emphasis, said the Senate
must act first.
Treaty Dead, Says Lodge
"The treaty is dead so far as the
Senate is concerned, unless it is re-
vived by the President" said Senator
Lodge, commenting on Senator Hitch
cocks contention and the Presidents
statement to Mr. Hitchcock that he had
"shifted responsibility to other shoul
ders," and did not contemplate with
drawal and re-submission Of the
treaty
"The Senate has gone as far as the
parliamentary situation permits" the
Massachusetts Senator added. "Unless
the President withdraws and resubmits
the treaty, the Senate can take no
further action. The recent vote on re-
consideration was final The President,
however, has power to withdraw the
treaty and resubmit it, with or with
out suggestions"
"The Senate itself is required to act
on the treaty" said Mr.. Hitchcock.
"Under the Constitution, the President
is required to submit treaties to the
Senate for disposition. He has done
this with the German treaty.
Says Senate Must Act
"The Senate has not acted finally nor
disposed of it. 1t merely has refused
to adopt proposed amendments, reser-
fication. The treaty still is pending in
the Senate on the desk of the Vice
President, and the President is not re-
quired to withdraw and resubmit it..
The duty Of disposing of the treaty
still devolves itself upon the Senate
without other action by the President"
Senator Hitchcock reiterated his op-
position to bringing the treaty before
the Senate again "to have it kicked
around like a football" before COM
promise is reached"
Active negotiations on possible COM
promise reservations, it is expected,
will be delayed until the Senate con-
venes following the holidays.

C,aptain d'AnnunziO
Plans to Fly From
Japan to America
Soldier-Poet Says He Will
Start by Air for U. S.
as Soon as F iu m e
Settlement Is Reached

FICME, Dec. (By The Associated
Press Captain Gabrielle d'Annunzio
plans to visit America after the liumc
situation has been adjusted, he told
The Associated Press to-day. The SOL
dier-aviator-poet declared he would
make his trip to the United States by
airplane, going by way of Japan.
"I yearn to reach America on wings"
he said. II will fly to America across
the Pacific and land on your fair Pacific
Coast. When my task in Fiume is done
and when Fiume is a part of Italy s
realm | am going to Toxic through the
clouds. Then l. will look across that
vast expanse of the Pacific, lift myself
from this earth and start toward your
land, your free America, stepping from
weather now, but it will be favorable
in February, and If Fiume is ours
will do it then"
The insurgent Italian commander as
sured the correspondent that he was
not preparing an expedition against
Spalato or Laibach. He gave his word
of honor that this statement was true.
ROME, Dec. 1.-THE "Popolo Ro-
mano" says to-day that Gabrielle dan
nunzio has assured the Italian govern
ment that he will not undertake any
new expeditions or go beyond the
armstce line.
Major Giuriat, chief of the cabin,
Of Gabrielle d'Annunzio, accompanied
by Commander Rizzo, of the d'Annun-
zio naval forces, arrived in Rome to-
day from Fiume. 1t is reported they
are the bearers of d'Annunzio's sug-
gestions for solution of the Fiume
and Zara questions.
1t is rumored that d'Annunzio's
funds are exhausted and that he is in
an embarrassing situation. There is
much speculation in Rome as to how
he will manage to pay his troops unless
an agreement is reached with the Ital-
ian government.
D'Annunzio was credited in London
from Dalmaian sources on
Saturday with having arranged an am
bilious scheme for the advancement of
his cause, revolving about an attack on
Spalato.
1t was also declared that efforts were
being made to instigate uprisings in
Montenegro and Albania as a part of
the Spalato undertaking, and that the
Balgarians were being urged to attack
the Jugo-Slavs. 1t was suggested that
the project, as reported, was not en-
tirely dAnnunzio's plan, but had the
support of his adherents in Italy.
Laibach is the capital of Carniola, in
Jugo-Slavia.

War Guilt Inquiry TO Go On
Berlin to Curb Witnesses
Political PrOnaoarda

BERLIN, Dec. 7.-Rumors current
abroad that the committees investipa..
ing the war guilt of German leaders in
1914 have discontinued their meeting,
are entirely wrong, according to
semi official parliamentary political
news agency. which issued statemen,
here to-day.
ION the contrary" the statement
says, sit is intended to conduct the IN
vestigations with every energy to
conclusion, but new methods will be
adopted which will make it impossible
for witnesses to misuse for party po-
litical purposes the accommodating
spirit shown them.
"The Investigating committee intends
to conclude its inquiry into the man
ner in which President Wilson's peace
tentatives were received as soon as
possible, so that the peace possibilities
of the spring and early summer Of
1917 can be subjected to scrutiny"

mans to the loss of the two provinces.
Germany does not understand the YER
dict Of the election of November 16
last. By every artifce Germany has
tried to fnlsify that vote: For ten
months past she has been flooding the
retrieved provinces with so-called au-
tonomist literature. The nation Of
pillagers has one sentimental romance

ever, a casus belll.
German Rule ut End
Germany never dared organize Il
France obtained unanimity of votes
at the elections, which constituted q

virtue of the now universally recog-

themselves, Germany can never again,
by any title, reclaim the territory she
held only by the obsolete right of con-

DIR. Mahain Blames u. S.
For Cermany's Defiance
Belgian Professor and Vatican
Choir Sail on La
Touraine

The French liner La Touraine de-
layed in port several days through lack
of coal, got away yesterday for Havre
with $50 saloon and $50 steerage pas
sengers.
Among the travellers on board was
Dr. Ernest Mahain, professor Of politi-
cal economy and international law at
the University of Liege, who had repre-
sented Belgium at the International
Labor Conference in Washington. He
said he believed the refusal Of the
Germans to sign the peace protocol and
their generally disdainful attitude
toward the Allies was brought about
through the action of the United States
said Senator Lodge had taken great
responsibility upon himself by oppos-
ing the Presidents wishes with regard
to the treaty.
The Vatican Choir, which has given
fifty-siX concerts in forty-six cities
here. departed for Rome via Havre on
the Touraine. Mgr. Rafaele Casimiri,
the choirmaster, said the tour was not
a financial success and that it was not
intended to be such. The singers, COM
prising boys and men ranging in age
from ten to sixty-three, he said, were
unable to assimilate American food
and many Of them suffered from indi-
gestion.
Shortly before the liner sailed per-
mission to depart was denied to Charles
Berenik, editor Of a Czecho- Slovak
labor paper published in Chicago. A
representative of the French Consulate
came aboard and revoked the consul's
wise of Berenik's passport. Berenik
his detention was due to efforts Of in
fuential Czecho-Slovaks in this city.

Albert Thomas, Socialist, ascended
the tribune amid terrific "booing," but
he was unable to make himself heard
for fifteen minutes. Finally, obtaining
a relative measure or silence, he sue

to speak for a few moments. The

Seated Socialists "Booed"
The Deputies, with the exception of
eight Socialists who remained seated,
among them Marcel Cachin, listened to
