OPPOSES PEACE RESOLUTION.
President Asks House Democrats to Kill
the Project.

WASHINGTON, March 3l-President
Wilson has sent word to the house Dem
ocrats to make every effort to kill the
resolution declaring peace between the
United States and Germany, which Re
publican leaders hope to force through the
lower branch of congress this week.
The view of the President was obtained
by Democratic members of the house for
egn affairs committee. These members
are understood to have asked the state
department for an opinion on the effect
iveness of the resolution, such as is being
planned by the Republican leaders.
The reply was that the resolution would
not be acceptable to the President, and
that he desired the members of his party
in congress to defeat it, if possible. The
.esult may be that the adoption Of the
neace resolution viii be delayed, but its
adoption is certain.

terms of peace.

rary defeat of the treaty 10 days ago is I
just beginning to crystalize For time
it seemed as if the executive branch of !
the government would do nothing but |

peace by joint resolution. But it begins
to look now as if at the psychological !
moment-possibly when the Joint resolu- =,
ton is up for passage or has been vetoed
by the President, the treaty will be sent
back to the senate. In order to get at
the viewpoint of the administration, the
writer asked a member of the cabinet to
give his Interpretation Of the present
status of the treaty He said:
1T is not up to the proponents of the
treaty to say what shall be done. Say
what you please about the personnel of
the peace commission, it is fact that
they were duly appointed by the constitu-
| tionally authorized executive and they
were fully empowered to negotiate a
treaty That treaty is now the law of the
land of Canada, England, France, Italy
and the world 1t is international law
today The efforts of certain members of
congress to try to make peace by a court
plaster resolution will not succeed We
must come to the treaty Of Versailles. A
resolution of congress is only one-sided.
Either we must accept the treaty of Yer
sailes or negotiate new treaty.
How can that be done? Shall we ask
other governments to reassemble their

treaty? But the treaty Of Versailles is
