ent, that the program of the admins
tration does not contemplate entrance

panied by Ambassador Jusserand, was
said to have been informed that SEN
timent of Republican leaders was vic.
tually unanimous for adoption Of the
Knox separate peace resolution, sub
iect only to possible amendment from
it's original form, early in the special
session of congress. M. Viviani was
described as appearing "reconciled" to
the situatio
Those. at the dinner said that M.

members of the Senate foreign rela-
tions committee and Col. George Har-
vey, of New York, prospective am
bassador at the Courth of st. Jane.
were among those present.
At the same time the senators made
it clear that the United States would
