TO PEACE TREATY

tee Will Be Called This Az

ldent Harding and Secretary Hughes
at a conference held today at the
White House
Senator Lodge chairman of COM
mlttee announced after a conference
he would call a meeting of commit
tee for 2 this afternoon at which
time Hughes would give more de-
tailed information.
The terms of the treaty were said
to have met with no opposition by
any of the majority members of the
Foreign Relations Committee and it

cordial approval.
The president, it was stated, hopes
for the ratification of the pact at an

he would not ask the Senate to fore
go its 80 days recess set to begin
tonight inasmuch as the German
Reichstag and the Senate would be
considering the treaty at the same
time and the German legislative body
does not convene until September 20.
The Republican members attending
the conference refused to discuss the
terms of the treaty.
