Gals believe the famine, in the sense
OF the great natural disaster caused by
drought, will be ended by autumn.
A recent report to Herbert Hoover.
under whose direction the task is be-
ing accomplished, says:
There will be hunger and extreme
suffering among portions of the popu-
lation for years to come. However,
conditions in the autumn, provided a
crop materializes, will have resolved
themselves into economic poverty rather
than famine. The sole and proper rem
edy for that poverty is economic re-
construction, and emergency charity
cannot solve the basic situation"

WILL LREJECTIT
Still Chance to Save U. s
From Folly, Some Senators
Believe.
By POLITICUS.

The Chinese treaty has received
warmer reception at the hands
of the Senatorial debating society
. than did the naval treaty. But
there was little fire in the fight
ing. and most of the Senators
seemed to resent the effort to
arouse them frem tho lethargy
into which they had subsided
!. when tho four-power alliance was
ratified.
These are the same Senators
who resented the whole idea of
treaty debate; the same states
men who complained because the
. fathers who wrote the Constitu-
. tion put in q requirement that
q two-thirds vote Of the Senate
Is necessary to ratify q treaty.
But for that requirement. the
whole treaty fight might have
been over in q week because the
Republicans outnumbered the
Democrats 90 to 30.
Borah Leads Fight.
Senator Borah led the onslaught
on the Chinese treaty. but he had
few followers. whats the user"
Is a favorite watchword with
Senators who find 1t difficult to
make intelligent speeches on in
ternational subjects.
Despite the obvious fact that
the treaty fight reached its eli
max in the initial battle over the
four-power compact and that the
other treaties never were really In
danger, there Is an interesting
undercurrent Of fear in the Ad-
ministration pro-treaty ranks.
Some of the Senators who were
most vigorous in rallying their
colleagues to the support of tho
treaty are now strangely hopeful
that either France or Japan will
take advantage of the opportunity
TO save the United States from
its own folly. Strangely. did I
say? / should say, naturally. For
q policy dictated by cowardice
will always be executed in fear.
Therefore they are clinsing to
the hope that the treaty oppo-
nents may be right, and that
France and japan, or at least one
Of these powers. win either
emasculate the treaties with
reservations or openly construe
the Brandegee reservation as re-
leasing the United States from
all obligations that involve more
than the most perfunctory con-
versation.
Relying Upon Senate.

Of the aftermath Of this strange
victory. we have the Administra-
tion worrying over the rampage of

priation bills are the men who held
