Harding Treaty
as EntGngling
as League Pact
Pronounced Opposition GrOID-
ing Among Republican
Senators.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 16.-Opposition
to the Harding treaty of peace with Ger
many was understood today to have de-
veloped in Republican senatorial ranks on
the ground that the pact aentangles the
United States in European affairs almost
as much as the League OF Nations cove
nant.
How far this opposition Will be re-
fected In votes of Republican Senator's is
uncertain. Criticism of the pact is not
confined to Senators who were irrecon-
cilables on the Versailles treaty how
ever.
Senators have been studying the new
treaty for several weeks. In several in
stances they have consulted their col
leagues about its provisions A number
are convinced the treaty ties the United
States into the Versailles treaty as surely
as though the Senate had ratified that IN
strument.
It IS significant, however, that no Re-
publican Senator. irreconcilable or mod
crate. is ready at this time to state his
opposition publicly. Strong party COP
siderations may keep the number of Re-
publican votes against the treaty to a
low figure, party leaders feel.
Democratic opposition is expected as
a matter of course But Republicans
generally, it is predicted by their lead
ers, will trust President Harding and
Secretary Hughes not to make the treaty

in European affairs.
