COLLEGE WOMEN
In WORLD UNION
British Educators to Tour
u. S. in Behalf of Interna-
tional Alumnae.
(By Herald Leased WIre.D

New York, Jan. 26.-The first defi-
mite step in an international move
ment among college women has been
taken with the arrival in this coun-
try of DIR. Ida Smedley MacLean and
Prof. Caroline Spurgeon, two noted
British educators. Prof. winifred
Cullis will join them shortly. They
are to tour America and visit the
leading colleges. They were invited
here by the committee on interna-
tional relations of the Association
of Cole giate Alumnae.
The Fedora ton of University
Women in Britain and the College
Alumnae here are leading the move
ment and hope for the creation of
an international federation of uni
versity women in the near future.
France. Sweden and Canada already
have the nucleus of such national
bodies. 1t is expected that they will
be the first countries to join Britain
and America in their ambitious
scheme
The object is threefold:
To encourage rapprochement be-
tween tne educated Classes Oh Gil
countries for their mutual benefit; to
improve international relationships.
politically as well as educationally; to
further the interests OF the college
women of all countries.
We expect our first international
meeting to be held in London next
summer" said DR.. MacLean. Then
we shall appoint our officers. At pres
ent London is our base of operations.
There will be no discrimination
against any race: but we feel that in
stead Of relying on Germany for our
scientific studies. as We have done
in the past students should now seek
their supplementary courses in other
European countries and in America.
Our object is really the International
izing Of education. We are not as
piring to lay a foundation for the
league OF nations. but we do believe
that educational interchange will have
an effect on the future peace of the
world.
wv feel In Britain that a thorough
understanding between American and
British college women Is highly neces-
sary. For one thing, there are more
college women here than anywhere in
the world. And since our interests
and language are indentical. 1t is for
us to be leaders in this movement. In
course Of time we hope to found
scholarships and have endowments.
but our plans have not yet taken defi-
mite shape

stead Of the thirty-eight votes which
they told Senator Lodge they could
command.
In his refusal to fall in line with
such a program Senator Lodge, in ad-
dition to being supported by the above
named Senators. would probably be
supported in the finality by Senators
Ball. Frelinghuysen. Newberry. Phipps
Sutherland and Elkins.
With the Republicans thus divided
into three factions, Senator Lodge is
apparently uncertain which warning
he should heed-that of the irrecon-
cilables to stand firm or lose his lead
ership and see the treaty killed or
that of the mild reservationists to
compromise to an extent that will
guarantee the treaty's early ratifica-
tion under penalty OF having the mid
die group Of Republican Senators go
after his scalp IL he assumes an atti-
tude that will result in a deadlock.
thus leaving the treaty as an issue
to be fought out at the polls at the
coming election.
Party Welfare a Factor.
The irreconcilable group make no
secret of their desire to block any
action now. so that the treaty may
be carried into the campaign. The
mild reservationists insist that this
course Is fatal to the interests OF
the party, and declare that they
are strong enough to force Senator
Lodges hand if he refuses to yield.
Yesterdays events created much
comment in Capitol circles. The prin-
cipal Issue at stake, according to the
opinion of a number of Senators of
both parties, is whether or not SEN
ator Lodge is to maintain his pSsi-
tion as leader or whether he will give
way to the leadership of Senator'S
johnson and Borah.
VIII Republicans YieIds
The belief was expressed yesterday
that the Massachusetts, Senator reit-
Grated his former stand that the Re-
publicans would not agree to a modi-
fication of the Lodge reservations in
the hopes that the Democrats, fearful
that they would be blamed by the
people of the country for blocking the
treaty. would finally yield.
