licans ratify the treaty with their
reservations, Mr.. Bryan said, should
only be a last resort if compromise
negotiations failed.
Could Make an Appeal.
"An appeal could be made to the
country" he continued, ito reverse,
in the league of nations, any action
taken by the senate and to author
ize restoration of any provisions
stricken out. And, in my opinion,
the democrmatic. party could make
much more successful fight before
the people for authority to restore
than it can for authority to retain
provisions, if it must share respon-
sibility with the republicans for IA
months delay.
II believe we can put the republic
can party on the defensive by pro-
posing an immediate compromise, il
compromise is possible, and second,
by throwing the responsibility on
the republicans for immediate action
if compromise is impossible"
Asked whether he believed the
president would approve a COM
promise set of reservations, Mr..
Bryan answered:
II do not know that anybody is
authorized to say what the president
will accept and I don't think it is
fair to ask in advance what he will
accept, or for him to suggest
changes that would put him where
he might be accused of a breach of
faith"

Bipartisan Treaty
Conference Opened
(Contiuued From Pare One.)


Gratis. Both delegations were chos-
en- informally and were said to be
without specific authority to act for
their respective sides, but leaders
hope that subsequent negotiations
will result in compromise which
will muster the two-thirds vote
necessary to ratification. ...- p.
Discuss Lodge Reservations.
The Lodge reservations were the
basis of discussion at the confer
ence. While no formal suggestions
in writing for their modification
were presented by the democrats,
verbal suggestions were made by
the democrats and these, Senator
Lodge said, were taken under ad-
visement by the republicans. Be-
fore the negotiations are concluded
it is expected that formal drafts of
compromise proposals will be
brought forth.
Failure Of the democratic caucus
to select a leader today, according
to supporters OF both Senators
Hitchcock and Underwood, is not
expected to have any immediate ef-
feet on the treaty questions. Sena-
tor Underwood, Immediately after
the caucus, announced that regard
less of the final result, Senator
Hitchcock would continue to handle
the treaty for the minority with
his loyal support. Senator Sim
mons, Hitchcock supporter, also
stated that the Nebraska senator
would continue in charge of the
treaty on the democratic side.
Bryan Urges Ratification.
After his conference with sena-
tors Mr.. Bryan, in a talk with news
papermen, emphasized his belief
that a large majority of the Amer
lean people desire immediate rati-
fication. Prompt action, he said,
would accomplish these two results:
First, it would take the question
out Of politics and permit both par
ties to turn their attention to very
important domestic issues. Second,
an agreement would permit ratihca-
ton by larger majority than in any
other way and that would give the
greatest possible weight to our &C
ton. Il.

officials Are Silent.
Washington, Jan. 15.-Depart-
ment Of Justice officials tonight ad-
mitted an investigation of financial
transactions in Pacific coast ship
building has been ordered, but de-
clined to indicate the nature of the
evidence. Officials of the shipping
board likewise were silent.
The investigation, it was recalled,
was instigated by Former Chair
man Hurley Of the shipping board.
1t was the intention of the board
eight months ago to go into the
books of the shipbuilding compan-
les itself, but plans later were
changed and the whole matter
turned over to Attorney General
Palmer. There was no intimation
at that time, however, that the al
legged fraud would attain any such
proportions as government agents
now believe they have uncovered.
Information which comes out
piecemeal here tended to show that
at least seven large shipbuilding
corporations were involved in the
alleged fraud. Their identity was
not disclosed and probably will not
be until federal indictments have
been obtained and executed.
