Without Consent Of
Congress-.

Washinxton-The Administration
peace treaties with Germany. Austria,
and Hungary were ratified by the SEN
ate. the vote on the flrst two being Sc
to 20. or eight more than the neces-
esary two-thirds, and in the case Of tho
Hungarian treaty, due to the absence
OF three Senators, being Sc to II. ..
The Senate action completed the Ad-
ministration's immediate peace pro-
gram, and brought full state of peace
with the principal enemy powers. Re-
naming now are the formal exchanges
Of ratification, except in the case Of
Hungary, as~that government alone
has yet to complete parliamentary &C
tion on the treaty. 49,. j.
Republicans Opposed; 49,
Only three Republicans, Senator'S
Borah, Idaho, LaFollette, Wisconsin
and Norris. Nebraska, the latter alb
sent on account Of illness, and paired
against ratification, voted against the,
treaties. --.
Fourteen Democrats, on the other
hand, supported the treaties, while two
more. were paired in favor of ratifica-.
ton.
Before final action was taken, q
Democratic effort to substitute for the
German treaty the treaty OF Versailles,
with the IL Lodge reservations, was
defeated, and the Foreign Relations
committee reservations, prohibiting
American membership on the Allied
Preparations commission, or any other
international commission without the
consent Of Congress were adopted.
Prominent among the speakers were:
Senators Johnson, Republican, Califor--
mia, Hitchcock, Democrat, Nebraska,
and Pomerene, Democrat, Ohio, in,
favor Of ratification, and Senator La
Toilette, Republican, Wisconsin,, in,
opposition.
Senator LaFollette opposed the.
treaty because Its ratification will in
volve this country in the quarrels of
Europe for period of 40 years to-
come" he asserted, that the people,
at the last two national elections, had
demanded that this government be:
kept free from European dissension,
and that attention be directed to-
domestic conditions which, he de-
clared, menace the stability Of Amer
lean democracy" ...
Senator Johnson, himself one of the
"irreconcilables" said he could not sub
scribe to the views of other "irrecon-
cilables" that the treaty would be-.
likely. to involve this country in Euro.
pean entanglements, although recog@
nizing the sincerity of those holding
that view. 90

He declared, however, unalterable
opposition to Americas joining the
Allied reparations commissions The
views of Secretary Hughes in favor Of
such representation, he said, "consti-
tute the danger of the future" Secre-
tary Hughes, the senator declared,

viding that no American Representa-
tive on the reparations or other COM

BRITAIN'S DEAD.
Highest American War Medal
Placed on Tomb Of un-
known Tommy
IS THANKED FOR AWARD
A. He Steps to Grave and Lays
Blue Rlbboned Medal .,
- Upon Bier.

ondon-kneeling revently before
the tomb of Britafn's unknown warrior
in Westminster Abbey, the Mecca Of
English'speaking peoples Of the world
General Pershing at high noon Mon
day paid Americas tribute to the en-
pres fighting forces with Americas
highest honor-the Congressional
Medal.
When the American army chief rose
to his feet after placing the medal
upon the tomb, he saluted and stood at
attention for two minutes amid the i'm.
pressive silence Of a distinguished
throng gathered to pay homage with
the heads Of the empire to the sym
bolic sepulchre.
Thanked for Award.
At General Pershing's side was the
Duke of Connaught, who clasped Gen
eral Pershing's hand, thanking him in
the name of the king and the empire
for Americas gracious act.
Nearby around the guarded tomb
stood Ambassador Harvey, Premier
Lloyd George, Sir Winston Churchill,
Sir Douglas ,Haig, Sir Worthington-
Evans, Lord Lee, Lord Cavan, General
Allenby, Admiral Niblack, Sir Henry
Wilson and many other distinguished
Americans and Britishers.
Pershine visibly Moved.
The historic cathedral was filed to
overlooking long before the ceremony
began. AS General Pershing stepped
to the grave, took the blue ribboned
medal from a naval aid and laid it
upon the bier many wept unreserved.
~. Tears glistened in the eyes Of the
Duke Of Connaught and General Perish
ing himself was visibly moved by the
solemnity of the occasion.
AS the last notes OF the Battle
Hymn of the Republic" were sounded
by buglers in far-off corner of the
Abbey, General PeTshing and the Duke
retraced their steps from the tomb be.
tween the lines Of Scots guards and
American troops down the long cen
ter aisle of the cathedral and out into
the sunshine of Parliament square.
In the square, opposite each other,
were drawn up picked detachments Of
American and British fighting units.
Doughboys with full service kits and
steel helmets, bronzed, typical fighting
soldiers; British guards, discarding
scarlet tunics for the khaki of war
time days, paraded directly under the
statue of Abraham Lincoln. The Duke
stopped occasionally to congratulate
the doughboys with their rows Of
medals, and then General Pershing
went down the British ranks, accom-
panying the Duke, carefully inspecting
/ the cream of Great Britain's units.
Crowd Cheers Leaders.
Premier Lloyd George, Winston
Churchill and others followed the
Duke and General Pershing, while the
tremendous crowds that blocked
Whitehall and Parliament square con-
tin4ously cheered the distinguished
men. "~~-,- -.
