form builders went seriously to work tonight on the more troublesome of the blanks remaining to be fashioned
 One of these was the declaration or the treaty of Versailles and the league of nations, Q subject of long standing and bitter controversy. Another dealt with industrial relations, bringing into contrast widely diverse schools of eco homie thought. A third related to Mexico, always a" topic Of debate and now somewhat complicated by recent ] developments south of the Rio Grande. Platform Harmony Predicted
 On all these, entire harmony was predicted by all the party leaders al i though most of them conceded that some interesting scrimmages, passibly reaching the convention floor, would have to be fought out.
 Complicating the task. temporarily was reaction against the platform program worked out by soma of the leaders in Washington. The move ment against that program. apparently l leaderless, was based on an objection 1 that Republican senators had taken too l free hand in pre- convention platform i construction.
 With the belated arrival from Wash lngton of several senators, represent ! ing extremes of Republican opposition on the treaty, the long senate fight over the league of nations virtually was transferred here. They will make a renewed effort for a program on which all Republicans can stand. 1 To Carry Fight to Convention i The irreconcilab1es and the mild i reservationists of the senate are pre- l pared for hard battle on the treaty plank. Senator Borah Of Idaho, a l leader of the frreconcilables, arrived 1 late in the day with a. plank which will I have the backing of the Johnson forces. I The mild f-pgprx-a fonfafu f,af1 errr.er

 We will submit our plank to the l resolution committee" said Senator Rorah, and if we don't see 1t in tho platform we will offer 1t in the con vention.
 The men of our group think we are entitled to straight-out affirmative ] declaration for the maintenance Of the l foreign policies handed down bv 1 George Washington anl James Monroe
 and as advocated and reaffirmed many times in Republican politics since 1S60"
 Senator Borah was not ready to
 make the Johnson -Borah plank public
 but said it would be presented to the l resolution committee.
 It was learned that the mild reser d Yationists plank would demand con structive policy for ratification Of the Versailles treaty with protective reser- vations and in endorsement of the stand of senators who voted for the i Lodge reservations. Senator Lodge. who arrived today, predicted that au 1 agreement between the various groups would be reached.
 ! There was a general feeling that 1it- i tie trouble would be encountered in l bringing an agreement on the Nexi- ] aa at Washington by Senator Fall of New 1 Mexico however providing for Ameri- can intervention unless Mexico Amended its ways. ran into some oppo- sition and it was suggested that it might be modified 10 omit altogether the reference to possible military in- terferenee by this government in the southern republic.
 May Oenounee Wilson Policy Tn that case, the plank would de- clare that recognition of the new re- zine in Mexico City should be with held until certain guarantees had hbeen nEde. There also would be an attack on President Wilson's Mexican policy and a general statement of the neces- sity of protecting American rights Two former American ambassadors to Mexico, Henry P. Fletcher of Pennsyl- diana, are in consultation here with l.Other leaders on the subject.
 
 Shaping the industrial plank revived many old animosities and brought into focus several of the issues raised by recent strikes and unrest. On this plank the supporters of Senator John 1 son are generally expected to have n program of their own and various ele- ments of the party are counted on to bring in proposals that will run coun- ter to the views Of some delegates. None of these elements has yet dis n-sz whole subject is in flux.
 Although only the less controversial platform declarations have heretofogs been taken up in the conference here, the leaders declared that so far they had been able to reach comulete agree
 To Seek Farm Plank
