treaty of Versailles. or more properly speaking, the remnants of that docu- ment which have been incorporated in the treaty of Berlin. President Harding is preparing to submit the new treaty for ratification and will urge early action upon it. This treaty seems assured of ultimate ap
 proval by the necessary two- thirds of the Senate. but before they per init 1t to go trough the democrats who led the . for the so -called
 Wilson Peace ,gIll have few ex- tended remarks to make upon the Harding Hughes peace.
 Treaty May Come Slow
 There Is no telling how far the po- litical war will go when once the Senate gets to talking peace again. It took year and more to kill the original treaty of Versailles and it may take six months to pass the pact of Berlin. The democrats are mak- ing neither threats nor promises at this time. They are to have a Sen ate conference soon and come to decision at that time as to their course of action. oddly enough. with the elimination of MT, Underwood, the democratic leadership will fall upon Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, vice chairman of the conference, and he will direct the attack upon what the democrats call the faults and failures of the new treaty, just as he defended the old.
 It is no secret that some of the more influential members of the dem ocratic minority are seriously con templating beginning a new fight for American entry into the League of Nations. They say they will take the ground that while the coming conference in Washington on the limitation of armaments is good thing and they are hopeful of its success, they feel that such a com ference would not have been neces- sary if the United States had lent its adherence and it's power to the League of Nations.
 The Senate democrats are in such militant mood that several of them 1 have gone so far as to suggest to Senator Underwood that his place this winter Is in the Senate rather than in the armament conference where in any issue which might in- volve political policy he would be in a helpless and hopeless minority on the American delegation. The urging of Senator Underwood to decline the position rendered him by President Harding is not with any idea of ob- uNtills OA ptAttNiih6 lie conference, The democrats say that Congress faces grave responsibilities during the next 12 months and that Senator Underwood. who is especially fitted by study and experience to ,, lead the minority in their fights in connection with the tax and tariff bills and other matters of legislation, would be rendering as great or greater service to the people in the Senate as in the conference room discussing the limitation of arma- ments.

 Some villages have succeeded in enlulating the city and have solved their traffic problems in a safe and sane manner; others. however, have failed woefully and at the bottom of thls failure we can find eighteenth century provincialism, ignorance and graft.
