| G. 0. P. LEADERS ARE SEEKING FOR WAY TO ENTER LEAGUE
(ContInued From Page one)

in the so-called Wilson league. there
 would be no objection from him or from the great majority of his associates in
 the Senate.
 Of course, Senator Harding and Senator Fall, and most of the republicans, would
 like to have the Wilson stigma entirely
 wiped away from the association of na-
 tions in which America is to participate,
 and efforts in that direction unquestion- ably will be made. But as the machin- cry for calling the nations together ex- ists in the league now functioning at Geneva, that machinery may be made use of, and the same nations which make up the league may set about the table
 when the new association is formed, or when the league covenant is modified to meet the terms America may lay down. The method of approach to the nations of the world to join with the Uniteo States is receiving consideration at this tirne Senator Fall thinks that the na- tions of Europe and of South America should come to the United States and ask that this country take the leadership
 in the new arrangements. He thinks the , nations should invite themselves to a conference to be held in Washington, and he feels that the desire of the rest Of the world to have the United States CO., operate is so great that the other nations will not hesitate to take this course. Sen ator Fall does not profess to speak for Senator Harding on this, but he is known as one of the closest men, politically and socially, to the President-elect. Fur thermore, he made his statements on this subject in the presence of the President elect. It is MT. Falls idea that the United States has an opportunity to as- sume the leadership of the world once more, and the best way to make this leadership both apparent and paramount is to have the other nations come to us for guidance and direction.
 Lord Robert Cecil, at Geneva some time ago, gave out an interview in which he
 said the other nations would not come to Washington on mission of this sort
 MT. Fall thinks differently.
 Do you expert France or England 10
 take the lead in inviting themselves Io a new conference at Washington? 7? asked the senator from New Mexico.
 Maybe the league itself will take the initiative" he replied.
 THINKS EUROPE DISGUSTED
 MT. Fall believes Europe generally is disgusted with the treaty of Versailles.
 and he predicts that new negotiations will be opened between England ana France and Germany within very short time. MT. Fall as member Of the sen ate foreign relations committee, may nave information of which the public Is not cognizant.
 The important thing Is that it Is now certain the United States is going to CO., orerate with the rest of the world in some sort of big international agree ment
 Senator Fall, expressing his own IT. reconcilable view, says nevertneie5s ne IS not averse to yielding a measure or
