Matthias Erzberger, minister of finance,

The commercial treaty with Rou-

Herr Erzberger asked that the pub

night TO be sent TO President Wilson.
The Senate, late in the day, adopted
the conference report in the Esch-
Cummins bill, ~ to II, after about
five hours discussion. The House
adopted the report Saturday.
The question uppermost in minds
of members of both houses tonight
was whether the President would
sign the bill or veto il, as labor has
demanded.
Director General Hines was per-
mittcd today TO notify the various
railroads by telegraph, two hours
before the Senate voted on the con-
ference report, that the executive
order returning the roads will go

An effort during the week, TO
bring the Peace Treaty before the
Senate for discussion and action
failed because Of the inability TO
reach a compromise on Article 10.
There Is a possibility that the Pres
ldent may withdraw the treaty al
together unless something is done
soon. The executive department al
least has functioned in making the
treaty and the Senate should either
ratify or refuse to ralify and not
prolong the suspense. In case of
withdrawal the President himself
might secure alteration of several
provisions.

The determination of the Allies
TO allow Turkey to retain COnstan-
tinOple comes as something of a
surprise, as il was expected that an
end was TO be made of Turkey in
Europe. II seems probable that
England is more responsible for the
change Of policy than any other OF
the allies. Her Mohammedan pOpu-
lation in India resented greatly the
displacement Of the Sultan, who is
the head Of their religion and re-
vered for that reason, if for no
other. England cannot afford to
have her population in India alien
ated from her.
