Mills of New York, representative
Of the mild reservation group on the
subcommittee and the members
generally declared the prospects Of q
complete agreement were bright.
1t was said there was still some
possibilities of hitch and that the
danger of breaking open the treaty
question on the floor of the conven-
ton had not entirely passed.
All the members of the sub-com-
mittee. however, seemed satisfied with
the development and smilingly as
serted that the peril Of a party split
was over.
The agreement was reached at a
conference attended by Senator Lodge
ate leader. and afterward Senator
Borah declared that Senator Lodge
had taken a stand. opposed to rati-
f1cation of the treaty and would so
state to the convention.

The development came as sensa :

begun what seemed likely to be a
long and desperate struggle. 1t re-

hour or two to finally polish 1t up be-
fore giving it to the public.

Chicago June 1O.-A league OF ma
tions plank, declared by leaders to be
acceptable to everybody" was unan-
imously adopted today by the Repub-
parently ending all threat of a party
split over the league issue.
Although the subcommittee ap-
proved also today the Mexican and
Armenian pl.nks, they decided to
spend the day in putting the platform
into fine shape ard to submit it to
the full committe>, at; p. m.
1t also was suggeaed that the con-
vention might hcf - night session to

begin work on nominations.
The treaty plank upholds the SEN
ate in refusing to ratify the treaty of
versaiEest, declares that any future
International peace understanding
must square with American tradt-
tions and omits the affirmation dec
laration for league which had been
urged by the mild reservationists.
Originally drafted weeks ago by
Elihu Root, the plank was revised at
an all night series of conferences and
was adopted by the subcommittee
after Senator Lodge of Massachusetts,,
the Republican senate leader, had ap-
peared in the committee room and
declared if the mild reservation pro-
posals were accepted he would go on
the convention floor and fight it.
Crane Agreeable.
The plank was said by the sub
committee members to be wholly ac-
Massa achusetts, leader for the mid
