100000 books, which have been re-
turned from overseas and from
abandoned camps and hospitals, and
have been stored here by the Ameri-
can Library association since the
partial closing of it's war work.,
The problem of tapping" this
huge reservoir of philosophy, knowl-
edge, romance and adventure, has
been simplified somewhat by the fact
that the war and navy departments
in response to their call, will receive
about 100000 of the volumes for use

TUMULTY CONSULTS
SENATOR HITCHCOCK
ABOUT PEACE TREATY

Washington, Dec. 31.-J. P. TI-
multy, secreary to President Wilson
today called on Senator Hitchcock,
head Of the senate administration
forces in the treaty struggle. -.
1t was understood that Mr. Tu-
multy would talk over treaty com
promise with Senator Hitchcock and
probably would outline President
Wilson's attitude toward compromise
efforts now going forward.
Mr.. Tumulty's visit to Senator
Hitchcock's office closely followed a
cock and Henry White, member. os
the American peace delegation, who
recently returned from Europe.
After his conference with Senator
Hitchcock, Mr.. Tumulty declared
that he merely wanted to ascertain
the status of the treaty in order to
convey the news to President VIII
son. He said he did not carry any
message from the president to Mr..
Hitchcock It was learned; however,
that before seeing Mr.. Hitchcock,
Mr.. Tumulty had visited the presi-
dents sick room, and it was under
stood the treaty was discussed.

Senator Pomerene, of Ohio, said to-
day following a conference with Sen
ator Lodge, Republican leader, con-
corning peace treaty compromise.
Senator Pomerene declined to
divulge what he and SenatorSLodge
discussed on the ground that a pre-
nature announcement might prove
dangerous. He stated, however, that
he is more confident than ever that
concessions will be made by both
sides which will lead to ratification.
Senator Pomerene reported the
result of his conference with SEN
ator Lodge at a meeting of Demo-
cratic members of the foreign re-
latfens committee tonight at the
home of Senator Hitchcock.
Senators who are determined to-
make the League of Nations an issue
in the next campaign are ready to,
demand that candidates now in the
race for the Republican presidential
declare themselves i'm
on the league it was
learned today.
