Peace Treaty To Be Indorsed
The resolution adopted by the COM
mittee said in reference to the peace
treaty:
"The Democratic National Committee
rejoices with the nation at the rapid
return to health and vicor of Woodrow
Wilson, the leader of Democracy, after
his physical break down, due largely
to overexertion in his efforts in behalf
of worldwide peace.
eve indorse his courageous and pa
triotic endeavor to bring the nations
of the world to peace by such mutual
understanding as will enable them to
settle their differences by amicable
methods rather than by war.
"We affirm our approval Of the treaty
of Versailles, and we condemn as un-
wise and unpatriotic the attitude of
those Senator'S who would defeat its
ratification, either directly or by over
whclming it with reservations that are
intended to and will have the effect of
multiplying it.
"The failure of the Senate Repub-
lican leaders to offer or to permit con-
sidcration of interpretative rcserva-
tions that would preserve the general
purpose Of the treaty and to so permit
it's ratification, condemns them to the
criticism of the nation and to the con-
tempt of the world"
"Fair Showing to Labor"
After reciting it's view of the con-
dition of the country when President
Wilson came into power in 1913, the
resolution calls attention to the Fed
