PEACE RESOLUTION
IS FILED IN SENATE
Move by Senator Knox Would
Terminate War With Both
Germany and Austria.

Washington.-A joint resolution pro-
posing repeal of resolutions by con-
gress declaring a state Of war with
Germany and Austria Hungary was
reported out by the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee by a strict party
vote.
Introduced by Senator Knox, Repub-
lican, of Pennsylvania, as substitute
for the Republican resolution recently
passed by the House, the measure was
formally presented to the senate by
Senator Lodge, the Republican leader,
with the announcement by Senator
Knox that he would open debate on it.
Leaders of both parties predicted
several weeks of discussion, with little
prospect of action until near the time
tions. In some quarters the opinion
was expressed that President Wilson,
in the midst of the debate, might re-
turn the treaty Of Versailles to the
senate.
Virtually solid Democratic opposi-
ton to the substitute was predicted
by leaders of the party. Senator Nc
Cumber, Republican member Of the
Foreign Relations Committee, who did
not attend the meeting, said he and
probably other Republicans would op-
pose it.
Straight-out reappeal of the war res
olution is the principal object Of the
Knox substitute which would require
the President to establish friendly
diplomatic and commercial relations
with Germany and with "the govern
ments and people of Austria and Hun
gary" Like the House resolution, it
would reserve all American rights
under the treaty of Versailles and pro-
vide for repeal of war legislation and
war powers of the President. 1t would
hold German property until all Ameri-
can war claims were satisfied, but does
not include the House provision for
acceptance of the resolution's terms by
Germany within forty-five days under
penalty of a commercial embargo.
A formal report only on the resolu-
tion was filed by Senator Lodge and
Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, ad-
ministration leader in the treaty fight,
decided to submit no minority report,
but to present the opposition's argu-
ments during debate.

Gen. Leonard Wood defeated Sena-
tor Hiram Johnson in an unusually
light vote in the primaries for the
States preference for the Republican
nomination for President.
General Wood carried all four Leg
islative districts in Baltimore city and
his popular majority was 3,577. His
vote was 8,761, as against 4,467 for
Senator Johnson. The total vote was
barely one-fourth Of the affiliated Re
publican vote in the city.
Practically complete returns from
the entire State gave General Wood
1890 votes to S,059 for Senator john
son, a majority for the former of 7,S41.
General Wood carried all the counties,
except Allegany, which Senator john
son won by the smashing majority of
801, and Washington. In some coun-
ties Woods majorities were scant/

it will not win him the district dele
