 REPEATED HIS SPEECH
 Washington. September 29.-The only address In the Senate on the treaties today was by Senator Wat son. democrat Georgia, who opposed ratification because he said he be- lieved they would drag the United States into the League of Nations and European entanglements. Ever since President iHarding's inaugura- ton, Senator Watson declared, the nation has been drifting irresistibly into the league" He also contended that the treaties failed to provide for release of Amr- ican citizens who had violated the espionage laws. Referring. appar- ently, to Eugene V. Debs, he said a man was serving a 10year sentence in the Atlanta penitentiary for re- beating MT. Watson's words.
 Because he repeated part of a speech I made,' said Senator Watson that conscription was unconstitu' tional, shouldn't he be in the Senate and I In the penitentiary He didn't say a thing more than I have said here in the Senate and I think I'm in better Company than he is. That is my opinion"
