WORLD WAITS TO
SEE HOW SENATE
HANDLES TREATIES

(Continued from page one)
ticipation in the Genoa parley will be
withheld.
One thing at time is the Harding
policy and while it looks today as if
all the treaties will be ratified, there
is a bare chance that the four-power
Pacific pact may be the subject OF
prolonged debate. In many respects
the closing of the Washington con-
ference resembled that ct Versailles.
The same satisfaction in having con-
cluded a treaty, the same feeling of
relief that the committee debates
were ended, the same confidence that
the whole world, would approve and
that the dissenting voices would be
few and negligible-all is the same
today in Washington with no one
daring to predict what the future will
bring in the American Senate.
Will the Democrats join with the
Republicans and make Republican
achievement possible? Or will they
do as the Republicans did when a
Democratic President brought back a
treaty signed by nations from all
parts of the globe-will they obstruct
it?
r Senator Underwood, Democratic
leader, believes the treaties should be
ratified and that the Democrats
should confne their partisanship to
domestic affairs. If only fourteen of
his colleagues follow him there will
be enough to insure ratification Of
all the treaties. Public sentiment in
the next few weeks will determine

State honors, even though the season
does not end until March 7th. Caro-

duled seven games, but the hardest
of its basketball battles are over, ex-
cept one. and the results OF the
games played were SO decisive as to
make further victories certainty.
N. C. U. has defeated, State College,
Trinity and Wake Forest already this
season, and the U quint is going
stronger every game.
Now N. G. will play a final game
with Trinity at Durham. March 7th.,
which would run play OF very late
in the season, and if Carolina can
win its. other three contests it will
have considerable edge on Trinity
