VIII Mean Defeat
TO HURRY DECISION
Republicans Fear Delay Will Result
In Desertion of Their Democratic
Allies.

Washington, Oct 1.-THE day APP
pointed for final consideration OF the
peace treaty with Germany finds the
Senate so divided that a change OF
four votes would result in the reJec-
tion of the pact. The same situation
APPLIES TO the treaties with Austria
and Hungary.
So unstable is this balance that the
Republicans tonight have about de-
cidcd to go to vote as Scon az posi-
ble-not even waiting for the filling
of the vacancy caused by the death
of Senator Knox. because. though this
would give them another vote for the
treaty. the delay might result in the
falling to the other side some of the
Democrats now counted on their side.
