Republican Senators Withdraw
Their Offer on Hard Fought
Treaty Clause.
ACTION COMES SUDDENLY
Lack Of Democratic Support
Prompts Lodge Cohorts to
Cut Debate Short.
ACTION COMES SUDDENLY
BY J. BART CAMPBELL.

international News seryice.)
The new compromise on Article X
on which Republican and Democratic
Senators have been working was
suddenly withdrawn by the Republi-
can leaders this afternoon.
Failure Of enough Democratic
Senator's to pledge themselves to
support it was responsible for the
Republican action.
Effort Not Worth While.
The compromise was so intended to
amend the Lodge reservation to Ar
ticle X as to make it acceptable to
the Democratic side.
Senator Watson. of Indiana, one of
the Republican leaders, who had the
proposed compromise in charge, gave
notice to Senator Simmons. Of North
Carolina, representing the Democratic
side that the Republicans had decided
II would not be worthwhile to press
the compromise further.
A revolt of Democratic Senator's
against President WILSON,, sufficient
to insure, ratification of the peace
treaty on the basis of the Lodge
reservation program was threatened
today.
At a conference held in the office
Of Senator Owen, Democrat, OF
Oklahoma, there was considerable
talk Of Senators hitherto regarded
ers voting on ratification according
to the dictates of their conscience
and not according to what the Presi-
dent wanted or did not want"
"Break- is ImpcndinE.
The impending "break" in the
Democratic ranks did not develop
sufficient proportions, however. to
offer any assurances of ratification.
A report that the owen conference
had resulted in twenty-seven or TWEEN
ty-eight Democratic Senator'S signing
a pledge to support ratification on
the basis of the new compromise on
Article X that has been suggested
was denied emphatically.
The situation was further confused
by Senator Borah and the ''irreconcil-
ables opposed to ratification serv-
ing notice on Senator Lodge, the Re-
publican leader, they would only sup
port the original Lodge reservation to
Article X.
Democrats Must Shoulder Blame.
But before the treaty Is laid to rest
again, the Republican leaders propose
to employ the compromise that Is to
be put forward as a means of putting
the Administration forces on record
once more as killing" the pact of
Versailles at the behest OF the Presi-
dent. That is the real purpose OF the
compromise. Shrewd Democratic
Senators know 1t. As well verscd in
the political game as are those of
them like Hitchcock and Senator Sim
mons of North Carolina, they are
jockeying for a position that will en-
able them to force the Republican
side instead to bear the brunt OF the
responsibility for blocking ratinca-
tion.
The Presidents letter is regarded
as a campaign document.

There are no pessimistic thoughts
OF the future OF business OF America

reached" said Mr.. Hurley, "snd the
fluctuation during the next three
years will not be over % per cent"

Organized labor wants lower
rents and suggests breaking all
agreements, thus forcing landlords
. 10 lower prices.
Suppose organized finance, want
ing cheaper labor, should suggest
breaking leases and dispossessing
all workingmen's families from
their homes to force down wages.
Would that seem reasonable? The
way to fight cxtortion is in the
courts and through the ballot
box.
To fight extortionate rents, in
