HITCHCOCK ADMITS

Viscount Said the Colonies
Would Object to Voting
Reservation.

Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, the
democratic leader in the treaty fight in
the Senate, today admitted that Wis
coun Grey had told him, while he was
object to the Senate reservations"
He said, however" continued Senator
Hitchcock, that there would be serious
objection on the part of Canada. Aus
tralia and the other British provinces
to the reservation regarding the voting
league. 1 think that the effect of the
Grey letter has been magnified-"
VIII Not Object to New Move.
Senator Hitchcock said that the
democrats would not oppose taking
up the treaty on Monday. He said
he had given notice he would move
to take it up on Tuesday only because
Monday was the regular day for the
calendar to be considered in the Sem
ate. He said that the democrats had
not determined what their course
would be in regard to some of the
parliamentary questions which must
be settled when the motion of Senator
Lodge to suspend the rules and take
up the treaty is made on Monday.
"a meeting of the democrats will
be held Saturday" said Senator Hitch
cock. ito discuss what their course
shall be-"
Only those democrats friendly to
the treaty are expected to attend the
meeting. 1t is likely that they will
discuss how far they are willing to
go in meeting the Senate reservations.
as well as what the procedure shall
be in the Senate.
Senator Hitchcock returned to
Washington today from Omaha, Neb.,
where he went last week.
Cloture Move Fails.
The move to put new cloture pro-
vision into the Senate rules in time

Poindexter Satiric on Grey.
In a satiric comment upon viscount
Grey's letter to the London Times Sena-
tor Miles Poindexter republican,
Washington. last night deplored the
remarkable influence which has been
exerted in this country by the letter"
as evidence of the growth Of interna-
tionalism directly begotten by the league
of nations idea.
cit seems" Senator Poindexter said,
that a large number of people in this
country, including many senators, are
inclined to take a different view of the
reservations in the interest of the inde-
pendence of the United States since
they have found that Great Britain
has no objection to them.
However, this apparent willingness
on the part of many to accept the lead
ership of foreigner in a question which
involves American independence is en-
tirely consistent with the entire league
of nations program
"WhiIe 1t is very desirable" he added.
"that we should maintain intimate and
friendly relations with our great kindred
ration across the sea, this is quite a
different matter from forming a govern
mental union with her."

What Figures Do Indicate.
However, the New York figures in
dictate unmistakably that the women
there are interested in politics, and
the ballot, and the same spirit may
logically be assumed to exist in other
states where woman suffrage is a re-
Gently acquired feature. The political
managers show their admission of this
assumption by the eagerness with
which they are inviting women into
the practical councils of the demo-
cratic and republican parties and to
take part in the actual management of
affairs. There will be women unQues-
tionably on the platform committees
of both national conventions to have a
voice in the framingiof national plat
forms. a
Up to this time the party managers
have seemed to have the idea that the
women were principally concerned in
the exercise of the ballot to assure
legislation for the betterment of the
industrial condition of woman. They
have, therefore. gone to great pains to
ascertain what the women ara likely
to demand and to promise IT outright.
Indeed. they go farther and say: IF
you don't see what you want, ask for
it," declaring their willingness to grant
anything they might have overlooked.
Woman political workers say that the
men are missing their guess if they
think the women are intent only upon
extracting justice, which is theirs by
right. and should have been granted
before the women seized upon the bal
lot as club to hammer it out OF the
men. and that it will be found that the
women are as deeply interested in Do
litical. party and national questions as
in merely enforcing industrial and
economic equality.
Furthermore, they say. the women
are to have a say in the nomination
of candidates. This is leap year in
more ways than one.

BILL is INTRODUCED

Senator Gronna. republican, North
Dakota, today introduced a cold stor-
age regulation bill. designed as a
substitute for the measure framed by
Representative Hutchinson. repub-
lican, New Jersey, which has already
passed the House. The Gronna bill
modified some of the more drastic
provisions of the House measure.

preted as applying to the storage of
provisions in private homes and
framed his bill to apply only to ware
houses and cold storage plants.
Under the provisions of the Gronna
bill produce in cold storage would
be stamped with the date after thirty
days. The bill carries an appropria-
ton of 5000, 900 for enforcement.
