washington, Jan. 20.-Possibility of
the introduction in congress of. joint
or concurrent resolution declaring the
war with Germany at IN end loomcd
tonight, following a sharp break in the
compromise conference which has
been trying to adjust disagreemcnts
y between Republican and Democratic
senator's as to the wording of the
Lodge resolutioR"%
The assertion of President Wilson
that he was willing to submit the ques
ton OF the adoption of the peace treaty
with the league of nations to vote
of the people, which has been approx
ed by Senator Johnson of California,
and other political opponents of the
administration has led some to believe
that this may perhaps be the, best So
luton of the treaty controversy.
In the meantime, it is pointed out,
mething should be done to stabilize
trade relations with Germany while
the treaty issue is still undecided and
resolution declaring the war at an
end is one remedy which has been
considered by both sides in the con-
troversy.
Open rupture today of the leaders,
conference was avoided temporarily
by passing over the dispute on the
Lodge resolution regarding equality of
voting in the league of nations. The
bipartisan conference will meet again
late tomorrow but with leaders of both
factions doubtful as to the possibility
OF ultimate agreement. '"'
Prospects of failure of the leaders
conferences and Of formal suspension
OF their sessions today moved "mild
reservation" Republicans, and a few
Democrats not members Of the lead
ers committees to discuss independent
setps toward a solution of the treaty
situation. One "mild reservation" Re-
publican spokesman said such q move
should be forthcoming if conferences
of the leaders fail within a few days
to give more of compromise.
Partipants in today's conferences of
the informal committees of which
there were two, said an impas Sc and
suspension of the compromise move
ment was virtually reached at the first
session as result of inability to get
together on the equal voting reserva-
tion to the league of nations covenant.
After more than two hours spirited
dispute the whole subject was put
over.
Better progress, howeverS was re-
ported at the second session. The pre-
amble to the Lodge reservations, re-
quiring formal acceptance by three Of
the five principal powers of Ameri-
can reservations was taken up and, it
was said, tentative agreement was
reached. The proposed compromise on
the preamble was said to provide that
if the principal signatorfes do not file,
formally, objections to the reservation
before their deposit for exchange of
ratifications the American reservation
shall be deemed to have been accent
ed
In the leaders dispute over the
equal voting reservation several COM
promise drafts were brought forth,
including drafts by Senators Sim
mons, Democrat, North Carolina, and
Walsh, Democrat, Montana.
