PEACE DEBATE
BEGUNBY knox,;
Il ATTACKS WILSON
Pennsylvania Senator Says
the President Stubbomly
Thwarts Action by Senate.

WASHINGTON. May 5.-openins
debate on his resolution to declare
tho state Of war with Germany and
Austria at an end, Senator Knox said
in the Senate to-day that President
Wilson was arbitrarily maintaining
that the nation technically was at
war in order to coefce the Senate into
ratification Of the Treaty Of Ver-
Aailies.
There was no excuse whatsoever
for greatly prolonging the war be-
yond the signature Of the armistice,"
Senator Knox said. "and the only eK-
blanation for 30 doing was.the delib-
crate aim to retain all those auto
cratic. compulsory powers with which
the Executive had beon endowed for
the prosecution OF the war in order
that they might be used foI other
purposes"
AsSertinK that he entertained. only
sympathy for the President in his III
ness and sympathy for the country
which must suffer under him because
Of IT," senator Knox said II was an
unweIcome task ito Judge one who has
fallen, in public esteem" He added
that when danger threatened the ma
ton It must be met forefronted, and
that "he who ventured to intervene
against the safe and wise course must
step aside OF be crushed.
The course OF the President ever
since he crulsed to Europe to partici-
pate In the Peace Conference, con-
tinued the former Secretary OF State,
leaves no chance for doubt that nc will
continue hereafter as heretofore, ito
thwart every attempt on the part of
the Senate, the Congress or the people
to take any action to change or mod
ify the Treaty Of Versailles.
Reiterating opposition to the Treaty
OF Versailles, Senator Knox said 1t
was almost universally discreditod
and that the Senate reservations dad
not Americanize the League OF
Nations, but merely made II safer for
America to join. The league, he
added, promises little but mischief
unless recast on such radical lines as
will entirely obliterate its Identity"
Instead of the league, he urged "an
arran goment for the codi dification OF in
ternational law, the establishment OF
a court of international justice and
the outlawry OF war" ,-N

KNOX CALLED TREATY TOO
HARSH FOR GERMANY.

Mr.. Knox is an irreconcllable op-
ponent OF the treaty. He stands ex-
actly on the same ground as Sena-
tor Johnson He has denounced the
treaty as too harsh and cruel upon
Germany. II the Republican con-
vention should be confronted by the
johnson followers with a demand for
n. stand on the treaty such as john
son has taken, Phllander C. Knox,
former Secretary OF State, would be
offered as the duplication OF the
johnson viewpoint.
I.owdan and Knox or Wood and
Knox wouldn't be n strange combln-
alton for President and Vice Presi-
dent. For while Mr.. Knox reflects
the Vit,n point of the johnson so!!og-
ers on the peace treaty robody
would for a moment call him a radi-
cal. He Is a tried and true conserv-
ative with a record in republican
ism that " unquestioned.
The third party lis coming. The
game now Is to keep II from drawing
too many Republicans and at the
same time to encourage II as a place
for the protest vote-the disgruntled
Democrats, the radicals and other
clements whose acquisition by the
Republican party might be embarras-
sing.
The Democrats are taking renewed
hope. The Johnson vote spells n split
70 them In the ranks OF their foes.
Five weeks hence the conventions will
tell the t0le-and there probably Will
be a thlyd convention.

DEMOCRATS SPLIT BETWEEN

Thls view ia confirmed by a tele-
gram Just received by the writer from
Trustworthy source which reads ns
follows.
The Democrats were split
about fifty-fipty between Hoover
and johnson. Both sides claimed
them, but johnson through el-
perb organization got away with
the majority OF the Democratic
vote. Most ~ the Hoover vote
came from the women and that
class OF people who have not in
the past paid 80 much direct at
tentlon 20 politics. Behind John
son were Milton NJ. Young, for

cratic Committee of Los Ana
