DEMOCRATSDONOT PLAY POLITICS IN
 FIGHT ON TREATY
Underwood Delighted With Ratification of Pact-De- clareS Principle of League
 of Nations Is Secured
By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington BureRu. The Age-HeraId.
 BOO DnVfuHou 7ulldiu ua

Washington, March 24.-(Special.) In sharp contrast to the partisan tac- tics of the republicans when for purely political reasons they killed the League of Nations and :"broke the heart of the world" enough dem ocrats rallied to the support of the the Harding administration, to bring about it's ratification, 67 to 27.
 Twelve democrats voted for rati- flcatlon and the one absent. democrat, Senator Jones of New Mexico, was reported from the floor to be favor able to ratification. Senators Dial Of South Carolina. Fletcher and Tram mel of Florida, Underwood of Ala bama, Williams of Mississippi, Brous- sard and Rsnsdell of Louisiana, owen of Oklahoma, Mcclellan of Tennessee, Pomerene of Ohio, Kendrick of Wyoming, and Myers of Montana voted aye and thus made ratifica- ation possible.
 Division in senatorial delegations were recorded in the following states; South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee
 Senator McKellar of Tennessee was the only democrat supporting ratifl-
 
 doubt Senator Heflin last night was regarded as doubtful. Today he op- posed ratification.
 Underwood Delighted
 Senator Underwood announced him self delighted We couldn't get the league of nations" said he, but we have secured the principle that was involved in the league. I am glad that the democratic party did not proceed against the four-power pact simply for retaliatory reasons. I feel that we have deprived the republican party of the congressional elections. Certainly. they have no claim based on congressional achievement And for the guaranteed peace in the Paci- i;c. we can divide claims with them."
 Senator Dial of South Carolina. who supported ratification, said; If it had been personal or political, would have taken great pleasure in giving the republicans dose of their own medicine. But the republicans in defeating the league of nations came near bankrupting the world There was no reason why we should have further distressed the world by following in their unwise footsteps. felt that I owed more to my consti- tuents. The four-power pact Is not what the league of nations would have been. But certainly 1t is, step in the right direction"
 The Georgia senators. Harris and watson. stood shoulder to shoulder against ratification. It was one ot the few times the two have agreed on an issue of international import

CARRY FISH ALIVE

Tokio, october 1s.-A method of transporting live fish long distances has been discovered by Dr. Chiyo- matsu lshikawa. professor of the Tokio Imperial university. by infus- ing a quantity of oxygen in the water of boxes doubly lined with zinc in order to prevent leakage. The method proved successful and will be again tried with "ayu," kind of trout which it hitherto has been believed impossible to transport alive. It is very important for the Japanese peo- pie to obtain fresh fish, one of the national dishes being raw fish.
