that no reservations should be
adopted. Any reservation that any
democrat wants to propose should
be proposed and acted upon but
there should be no unnecessary de-
| lay. We denounced the republicans
for delaying the action on the
treaty of Versailles. Why should
we bring condemnation upon our
selves by delaying action upon
these treaties, especially when by
doing so we divert attention from
the economic question which must
be paramount in the fall cam
lpaign?"
Mr.. Bryan declared that the
democratic party had a splendid
prospect of gaining the next con
gress" which would enable US to
lay the foundations for winning
,campaign in ISe,H"
AS might have been expected, he
added. "the weakest point in this
administration is its economic poll
cy."
This was to have been expect
ed" explained Mr.. Bryan, because
the republican party is made up Of
two distinct groups; the reaction
aries who control the leadership
and the progressives who furnish
the bulk of the votes"
The revenue bill enacted at the
last session, Mr. Bryan described as
bad" adding that it fought to be
the leading issue in the west be-
cause it was the western republi-
cans who revolted against repub.
lican leadership when the bill was
drawn.
The four-power Pacific treaty, he
continued was based upon the
thirty treaties negotiated by the
last administration" and when the
democrats vote for this treaty, he
added. they are simply approving
their own policies which the re-
Ipublicans have adopted"

Washington, March 6.-Another
senate request for information
about the four-power Pacific treaty
was sent to the White House today
coincident with the beginning of q
series of addresses by administra-
tlon senators cHpounding the treaty
and urging its ratification.
Without record vote and with
the consent Of administration lead

Senator Borah, republican, Idaho,
a leader OF the 'irreconcilables, I"
asking President Harding to ex-
plain what will become of the Ian

should the four-power pact be given
senate approval.
Underwood Explains.
Forecasting the presidents reply,
Senator Underwood, of Alabama,
the democratic teaoer and a men,
Der of the arms delegation whicl;
negotiated the treaty, declared on
the senate floor that the four
power and other pacts resulting
from the arms conference would
wipe out" the celebrated gen
tlemen's agreement" of 1917 en-"
tirely. His construction of the sit
uation was disputed, however. b.
ether senators.
Just as the Lansing-Ishii agree
ment recognized that Japan had
special interests in China, Mr..
Underwood argued, the arms
treaties recognize that no natior
possesses any such privileges OF
any other right which might be
construed as creating a special
sphere of influence in the Far East.

the republican leader and another
of the American delegates indi-

No Alliance.
Presentation of the Borah resOlu
tion followed an extended discus
sion of the treaty by Senator New,
republican, of Indiana, who in the
first prepared address to be made
in the senate by the treaty support
ers, explained the four-power al
rangement as a logical and sound
development of the long established
American pOlCV III lne PaclIlc. tie
contrasted 1t in detail with the
league of nations covenant, decIar-
ing that nothing was now proposed
which would involve the United
States in an alliance or transgres-
sion cherished by American tradi-
tions.
No general debate on the treaty
followed the opening Of the admin
istration drive for ratification, hut
Senator Lodge gave notice that be-
ginning tomorrow he would en-
deavor to keep the subject before
the senate so that debate might he

WHEN WEST BEATS EAST.

The largest university in the world is not
Columbia University, but the University Of
California. For all ordinary purposes this in
formation is about as interesting to most people
as it is to know in what country the tallest man
in the world lives. Incidentally it may be re-
marked here that the individual who now claims
this distinction halls from France.
From the point of view of sectional pride it
will be gratifying to all those who call them
selves Westerners to know that at last a West
ern school has beaten out an Eastern one in the
race for highest enrolment. Columbia claimed
the honor with an enrolment of 32.420 s%turents
whereupon the University of California mar
shalled her student army to the strength of
1926 recruits of all kinds.
The figures are misleading if they convey
to the reader the idea that there are lounging
about Columbia University class rooms on any
given day 32,420 students. and 1890 in the u.
of {. class rooms. Many of these are so-called
extension students; they may never go near the
school in which they are enrolled; they are not
students of the school in the sense in which a
high school student is a part of his school.
Hundreds Of university faculty men deliver
lectures in towns remote from the school with
which they are connected, and if the lectures
form a series the thousands of people who at
tend them arc sumnarily called university stu
dents. The University of Californa reports
nearly $4,000 such students. Thus it will be
seen that the actual number of students on the
Berkeley campus on any given day this week
is much less than the published total enrolment.
Columbia reports 1888 such extension students.
But even though there is no possibility Of
making an exact comparison, we shall probably
have to concede that the University of Cali
fornia carries off the honors for largest enroll
ment this year. From the point of view of en-
rollment the Eastern schools long held first
place. Then came the great universities of the
Middle West to nose out all but Columbia, and
now even this school has had to give way to
another in the far West. Westward, it seems,
the course of foot ball takes it way.
