ALREADY ON RECORD AGAINST
PEACE BY RESOLUTION.

The President himself has declared
once before that peace cannot be
made by resolution OF Congress and
he Is unlikely TO sanction such a
precedent at this stage OF his con-
troversy with Congress oyer the

executive branches Of tho Govern

. ventlon at which the Constitution OF
the United States was framed the
original article gave Congress tho
right 10 declare war and peace" but
that the words "and peace" were
eliminated by unanimous vote be-
cause II was contended that the leg
idatiye body would always be too
unwieldy 10 conduct negotiations

Strangely enough, II was also

WARRINGTON, May 1l.-(copy-
rlkht is20.)-President Wilson ia
sharpening his veto pencil for the
Knox peace resolution. in It's pres
ens form even as amended by the
senate it is Objectionable TO the
white House. but there have been
lso many vital changes since the
MEASURE passed the House that it
may be a simple repeal OF war time
ia<S when It comes out of the con-
ference between both Houses Of Con-
sress.
Therefore, judgment must lbe gus
pended until the resolution actually
comes 10 the white House. but un-
Jess further amendments are made
il win be vetoed and with the veto
message will come the Treaty OF YER
sailles as the unfulnlled task OF the
senate.
Interest centres moro upon what
ground the President will choose for
his veto message than in the pos
sIbllity that he might sign the reso-
luton and point TO It's inadequacy by
referring the treaty Of peace itself to
the Senate for action. Generally
spealAng. the President is said to con-
template vetoing the peace resolution
on the ground that 1t distinctly in
terferes with the constitutional pre-
rogative Of the Executive'in making
peace with a foreign government.
MIGHT Tie HIS HANDS IN NEW
NEGOTIATIONS.
While there might be no objection,
for instance, in the repeal Of war time
laws from a domestic viewpoint, the
President could contend that It de-
prives him OF one Of the most inn
pcrtant weapons needed in negotiat-
ing peace with a foreign government

OF German property in the United

from Mr.. Wilson's hands the power

Germany in the event that q now me-
ISOLATION, for a treaty with Germany
might later become necessary.
Senator Lodge himself has shrewdly
withdrawn from the Knox resolution
the request for a separate peace with
Germany, thereby eliminating one
patent objection which the Executive
could have raised. namely. that the
resel;:tion is an effort TO force the
hand OF tho Executive in negotia.
