tack" connived at by Senator Hitch
cock, the Democratic leader, to de-
feat the treaty.
Among the Democrats, Senators
Walcott, of Delaware and Tram
nell of Florida assailed the proposal
as an attempt to drag politics into
the treaty fight, while Senator Borah,
Republican of Idaho, leader of the ir-
reconcilables, declared the effort of
Senator Lodge to amend the self de-
termination feature was a political
move which it was hard to find words
to describe.
Republicans Work in Vain.
The first roll call on the reserva-
ton came while the senate was work
ing in committee Of the whole and
| when the result was seen Republican
leaders tried in vain to stave off the
second vote until tomorrow. They
ran into a whirlwind of objections
among the reservations friends. Sen
ator Ashurst, Democrat, of Arizona,
stirring the galleries to applause
when he conclude plea against
delay by declaring the country was
tired of the treaty debate.
Under Senate rules, all the reser-
vations had to be acted on again
when the treaty was reported out Of
the committee Of the whole, and in
the end all Of them were approved
without change.
Senator Simmons, Democrat, Of
North Carolina made a final attempt
to get a modification in the reserva-
ton to Article 10, but his substitute
was laid on the table, As to "a, Sena-
tor Lodge serving notice that the
last change in that reservation had
been made and that he had reached
the parting Of the ways on compro-
mise negotiations.
An attempt to secure unanimous
consent that q vote be taken on rati-
fication of Dhe peace treaty tonaor-
row, was blocked by Senator Lenroot,
Republican, of Wisconsin, leader of
the mild reservationists, and the sem
ate adjourned after II p. m. Most
leaders predicted that a final vote
would be reached late tomorrow
night.

HOOVER BOOM IS
DOUBLE BARRELED
Something Unprecedented in the
History of American Poll
tics.

The News and Courier.
Washington. March 19.-Watchers
upon the political towers have been
trying hard for some months to
make up their minds which way the
Hoover cohorts are moving.
Mr.. Hoover himself has been a
puzzle to the politicians in his per-
sonal outgivings. Indeed, he has in
this respect puzzled a great many
who are not politicians.
It has been the general assump-
ton that the former food controu-
er's chances of nomination are practl-
cally confined to the Democratic
party; and yet he takes pains to
make the remark that he is pro-
gressive Republican thereby embar-
RAISING some of his warmest Demo-
cratic admirers.
Besides, what does Mr.. Hoover
| mean by saying that he must see
what the platforms Of the parties con-
tain before committing himself as to
the current campaign? Surely he
should know, say the hard shelled
politicians, that our American par
ties nominate their candidates first
and choose their platforms after
wards. If man waits to see the
platform, he can not be nominated;
the nomination will already have
been made. This is veritable "kin-
dergarten stuff" in politics.
After Both Big Prizes.
Nevertheless, the Hoover boom
goes merrily on, and the old time
politicians in the Democratic party
are afraid of it in much the same
way the old liners in the Republican
camp fear the advance of the Wood
boom. It is fact that Wood is the
best advertised of the avowed Re-
publican candidates for the nomina-
ton, and possibly the best political
organizer among them. Hoover is
the best advertised individual in the
world today, who is not avowedly in
politics, and his reputation as an or
ganizer needs no description.
The fact is not generally realized,
and of course can not be "officially
confirmed" that the Hoover presi-
Dental boom is double barreled af-
fair, aiming at both of the great ma
tional conventions. The managers of
this boom, whoever they be, are
rather obviously planning to capture
| one nomination if they miss the
other. Less obviously they are also
contemplating the possibility of cap
turing both conventions and making
the election Unanimous"
Very few of the political on look
ers believe that it is possible to
bring down both of these big birds
with the same gun, yet the very
audacity of the idea challenges in
terest. and audacity is an important
factor in politics. The Hoover cam
oa:el seems to be predicated upon
. l.. principle thai there is nothing in
u.1ess the public develops such a

TREATY RATIFICATION is
DEFEATED IN SENATE
Final Vote 49 to 35-Looked Upon
on All Sides as Definitely Throw
ing Issue Into Campaign.

Washington, March 19.-The
treaty of Versailles failed Of ratif-
cation for the fourth time tonight
and then the senate voted to send
it back to President Wilson with a
notification that it had finally ere
fused to advise and consent to its
ratification.
On the decisive roll call the vote
was 49 for ratification to 35 against,
the opposition numbering in it's ranks
20 Democrats who were unwilling to
see the treaty 60 through with the
Republican reservations objected to
by the president, and three Demo
Gratis and IL Republican irreconcil-
ables. Twenty-one Democrats quit
the presidents lead and voted for
ratification, but the detection failed
by seven votes of providing the two
thirds requisite to ratify.
Pushed Into 1920 Campaign.
The result was regarded every
where in the capital as having put
over into the political campaign for
decision the long and bitter fight be-
tween the. chief executive and the
senate majority. A move to recon-
slider the vote and try once more to
ratify collapsed in it's inception, lead
ers on both sides agreeing that fur
ther ratification efforts would be a
waste of time as long as the senate
membership remains as it is.
Whether the president would re-
turn the treaty to the senate re-
manned undetermined, but the Re-
publicans served notice that if he did
it would repose for many weeks to
come in committee pigeon hole. In
the vote of Al to 81, by which the
senate washed it's hands Of the sub
ject and sent the treaty to the White
House, the Republican leaders had
the support of the mild reservation
lists as we'll as the irreconcilables of
their party while the Democrats
voted almost solidly in opposition.
May Declare State of Peace.
The next step planned by the SEN
ate majority is a declaration of a
state of peace to relieve the nation of
the war status which the Democrats
maintain can be ended only by the
treaty's ratification. A fight on that
proposal probably will begin when
the senate reconvenes Monday.
The roll call on ratification came
four months, almost to the hour,
after the failure of three attempts at
ratification on November 19. On that
occasion the greatest strength de-
veloped for ratification with the Re-
publican reservations was al votes,
only esven Democrats voting with the
Republicans in the affirmative. The
vote against was 81, made up of 13
Republicans and SO Democrats. To-

MEN CHANGED BY BATTLE
Soldiers Have Learned What Can BE
Accomplished by the Use of Force,
Sternly and EfficieitIy
Applied.
Article TX
BY FRANK

Making d soldier out of a civilian
does more than change the clothes he
wears. 1t changes the man. Men
who had never owned a revolver
or rifle, who had never ever shot ore
off, Sho had never killed anything in
their lives, were given firearms. They
were drilled, taught to shoot. taught
10 kill. The education was thorough
and scientific. They learned to look
down the sight of a rifle, pick out a
human heart for a target, fire and
eagerly watch for the man to fall.
They were trained to rush madly at
q wall of human beings and drive bay
onets into mems heads and bowels.
Many of these men a few years be-
fore would have tainted in a stock
yards where cattle. We're being killed.
For four years they have been in a
human slaughterhouse. not only as
spectators, but as part of the place.
II steeled these men. Many of them
contracted the undertaker's point Of
view towards life, u fatalism without
fear.
Experience I'm battle taught them
the meaning of the word force"
They discovered that the individual
was only important and efficient when
he acted in concert with a great group.
Everything depended upon team work.
Men learned that a group Of men
working in harmony, with nerve and
rifles with fixed ~bayonets, could do
objective. In other words, take the
thing they wanted and needed. When
these men came back into civil life
and took off khaki and put on over-
alls. the taking off of the Khaki aud
the putting on of mutt did not erase
from their minds this lesson the war
had taught them.
This lesson has borne fruit. The
men look at the employer ar an en-
envy. The employer thinks of them
as q commodity. Hatred IL cordial.
The men want something. They de-
mand it. The employer refuses.
Their objective is to get the thing
they want and need. The war taught
them there is a way, a weapop-Force.
Today i'm Europe men reason, "if we
can't get what we want, and need, we
must take It. We have the force"
Having grown habited to suffering, ac-
customed TO blood and death, they
look with indifference on the question
of danger, Of price. They saw that
when nations could not agree they re-
sorted to force. They discovered that
victory generally. went to the nation
possessing the greatest force.
