SOME FEAR TREATY MAY
HURT u. S. AT FARLEY
Several Senators Believe Separate
Pact With Germany Will Prove
Tripping Block.

Washington. Sept. 10. - Senators
fear the separate treaty with Ger
many may prove a stumbling block at
the coming disarmament congress.
Their apprehension arises over In
corporation OF sections of the treaty
o. Versailles referring to American
rights In the document. The fear
this will lead TO complications when
the settlement Of the Pacific and Far
East problems is approached.
Members of the sO-called irrecOncil-
able group responsible for the de-
feat Of the Versailles treaty and the
League OF Nations covenant, are par
ticularly Of this frame of mind. How
ever welcome the separate treaty has
been to them, they would have pre-
ferred 10 have seen IL drafted with
out reference TO the Paris pact and
they do not conceal this fact.
AS the irrecOnciliables, represented
by Senator's Johnson and Borah, look
at II, the incorporation Of the sec
tlons Of the Versailles treaty virtually
makes this country a party to the
document. While they realize Ameri-
can rights In the Paris treaty must be
protected. they believe that Ii could
have been accomplished more effec-
lively had the sections dealing with
them been lifted bodily from II and
written into the German treaty as
separate provisions without mention
ing the Versailles treaty.
