j. S. AWAITS MOVE
Of OTHER NATIONS

Responsibility for termination of
the commercial treaties between the
United States and more than a score
of foreign nations in conformity with
requirements of the shipping act
probably will be placed squarely upon
the other parties to the treaties by
the State Department.
In other words, it will be left to
the other government to sayswhether
it is content to accept the terms OF
the act and acknowledge the right
Of Congress to discriminate against
its shipping without entirely cancel
ing existing treaties. Officials regard
these treaties as contracts, and do
not claim the right to cancel a single
provision without the consent of the
other parties.
Indeed. it has been found that some
of the treaties include clauses ex-
pressly prohibiting any changes In
their provisions in any part
The State Department. 1t was said
yesterday, soon will make public an
nouncement Of it's policy. 1t may be
some time, however, before the
foreign governments are heard from.
and then it will be necessary for the
department to date back notices OF
denunciation, il such are required.

Coolidge and Butler Lose.

Governor Coolidge of Massa.
chusetts was beginning to loss
strength and the support of DR.. But
ler of New York was rapidly fading
away as the New York delegation
was beginning to split between
Wood and Lowden.
Late tonight the leaders began as
sembling in conferences that con-
tinued we'll through the night in de-
liberation on the situation. The
Wood and Lowden managers were
actively prosecuting negotiations
in various quarters to add to the
strength of their respective candi-
dates when the calling of the roll
is resumed at the convention to-
morrow morning.
At midnight the Lowden camp
was more confident than ever that
the Illinois candidate now has in
sight the votes to effect his nomina-
ton early in the balloting tomor-
row. This confidence appeared to
be founded chiefly on assurances of
the delivery of a large proportion
of the New York, Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts, Indiana. Michigan
and other large delegations to the
governor, possibly on the first vote
tomorrow morning.
The switch to Lowden of a large
number not only of Johnson, but
of Wood delegates, was being
claimed by the governors repre-
sentatives as result of the negoti-
ations of the night.
Claim Gains for Wood.
The managers of Gen. Wood, how
ever, not only refused to concede
any weakening in tho support of
their candidate, but asserted he
would start the balloting today with
additional gains. They continued to
predict the victory of the general.
Niether Wood nor Lowden came
anywhere near the total vote pre-
dicted by their respective managers,
but it was not until the fourth bal
lot had registered only small gains
for each of the two big rivals that
the contending camps were willing
to suspend voting for the night,
The first ballot produced the an
ticipated lineup for each candidate
forecast in the Tribune yesterday.
Thereafter Wood gained only ~
votes before the convention ad-
pourned, while Lowden gained II IL
and Johnson lost 71-2. The anti
