26 ORGANIZATIONS ASK
THAT TREATY BE SIGNED
Descend Upon Senate
and Present "Mnnifesto" Dcmand-
ing Immediate Ratification.

HY JAMES II. NOURS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-Represen-
tatives of twenty-siN civic and reiig-
lous organizations descended upon the
Senate today To present n manifesto"
demanding immediate ratification of
the treaty of peace.
From Senators Lodge and Hitchcock
TO whom the manifesto" was present
ed, they obtained two very substan-
tial reasons why ratification is i'm
probable.
First. Senator Lodge speaking: The
reservations now before the Senate
are in themselves q compromise be-
tween the two extreme viws OF the
Senate. and they represented as they
do now. the views Of the majority I
shall be glad to consider any modifica-
tion that may be proposed by the MI
nority.: but they will have 10 get Ga
votes.'
This from Senator Hitchcock: ut is
difficult matter 10 compose the diff
ferences among Senator'S OIL reserva-
tons. The difficulties are enhanced
by the fact that the Democrats cannot
go any farther than agreeing TO res
ervations which they believe the Presi-
dent will accept"
