SUPREME COURT
MAY SETTLE j. S.
PEACE QUESTION
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
The News Scimtar 5 SpecIa, Corrs
Rnondent


WASHINGTON. April Peace py
joint resolution of congress instead of
a treaty has raised such a serious ques-
ton as to the relative power of the
president of the United States and the
congress that it may require decision
by the supreme court of the United
States to settle the dispute.
Republican leaders in the house have
framed a resolution not only declaring
the war at an end but undertaking to
communicate to a foreign government
stitution heretofore only the executive
branch of the government in its own
discretion has been privileged to send.
Here is what is likely TO happen:
President Wilson will surely veto the
joint resolution on the ground thdt
1t trespasses on the constitutional right
of the executive to conaAct the foreign
relations of the country and to make
treSties and agreements with foreign
powers.
Congress may decide to pass the
resolution over Mr.. Wilson's veto. AS
suming that a two thirds vote of both
houses is possble-something which is
doubted, because in the senate the
treaty itself was beaten because enough
Democrats stood steadfastly by Presi-
dent Wilson and prevented ratification
with the Lodge 5reservations-a grave
question would arise as to the validity
of the joint resolution.
Constitutional lawyers diSnterested
in the present dispute declare that II
congress gave two thirds vote to the
president it would not stand in the
same category as a bill which becomes
law that way, but would be absolutely
invalid
