Lloyd George are constitutionally in- capable of understanding each other and that the need of a general un- derstanding between France and Britain on German policies will ul- timately compel ministry of which he will be the head. The objections that are being urged to Tardieu as prime minister are:
 First, he is accused of reactionary tendencies and constantly Is coupled by his political adversaries to the royalist groups.
 Second. he has stuck consistently to the letter of the treaty of Versailles and this has engendered the fear that he would lack the necessary flexi- bility in dealing with Lloyd George.
 Has Modified stand
 During the last two weeks he has modified his stand on both points. He has let 1t be known in unmistak- able terms that he will not insist on a strict application of the Versailles terms now because the treaty al ready has been so mutilated as to be ineffective and it can best be used as an instrument to reach common understanding with Cueat Britain and the United States. For the first time ne also has assaiied the royal ist group through his newspapers thus indicating that he would have none of their aid In furnishing cab met members.
 Political experts declare these moves were essential before he could expect the cooperation of even the moderate Left center. Poincares present weakness is due in con siderable measure to his having traf- licked with the extremists of the Right

OLD GUARD IN
PLOT To KEEP
SENATE HOLD
Abolish Seniority and Create
Steering Committee Is
McCormick's Plan.
BY JAMES X. NOURSE,
Universal Service.

To keep Senator Bob" La Fol-
lette of Wisconsin from becoming
chairman of the powerful Finance
Committee, Old Guard leaders are
proposing to abolish the seniority
rule, which for many years has
governed the selection of the COM
mittee chairmen.
1t is also proposed as part Of
the Old Guard plan to keep its grip
on affairs in the Senate to create
a steering committee from the Re-
publican membership and to endow
this committee with power to censor
all proposed legislation. to decide
what should be passed and what
should be thrown into the discard.
Such a committee, II created now,
would be absolutely dominated by
is in the majority on the Republican
side, and could therefore dictate
to the independents and stop them
from putting forward any legislation
of a progressive nataire, such as
they desire. :
The first concrete proposals. for
these maneuvers in the reorga MIA.

letter written by Senator Medill
Mccormick, Of Illinois, now on his
way to Europe. to Senator Lodge,
the Republican leader. in which Nc.
Cormick urges Senator Lodge to take
two decisive steps for control Of the
Senate:
1. Abolish the seniority rule. p, =.
2. Create a strong and powerful
steering committee, which may be
truly representative of the averags
opinion of the Republican majority
in the Senate, and which, in col
