The general impression around the
State House is that majority OF the

Measure feel confident that it will
receive the necessary two-thirds vote
for passage over the Governors veto

When the veto of the bill was taken

KILL BARWISE RESOLVE

The Barwise resolve proposing an
amendment to the constitution linn
iting State aid to sectarian institu-
tions to Dec. 81. 1890. and prohibiting
it thereafter. failed by two votes of
the necessary two thirds to give it
final passage in the House of Rep
resentatives on Wednesday morning,
the vote being 80 to 40.
In view of the fact that the Senate
had previously by just one vote ma
jority accepted the minority report
Of the judiciar committee. Ought to
pass in new draft" there is little
prospect Of a two-thirds vote being
secured when the resolve reaches the
Senate today. and it appears that the
resolve is a dead issue in the Slst
Legislature.
When Representative Barwise of
Bangor took the resolve from the
table, that was the opening of a red
the noon hour.
Motion for indefinite postponement
of the resolve was made by Repre-
sentative Holmes of Lewiston, who
spoke at length on the matter.
Speaking in opposition to the Bar
wise bill, Representative Hale OF
Portland took the position that the
question at issue was not the giving
of public funds TO private institu-
tons. but whether a constitutional
amendment should be submitted to
the voters OF the State and whether
the Legislature thought there was
necessity for such submission.
Mrs. Dora 3. Pinkham OF Fort

expressed the hope that Mr.. Holmes

Representative Barwise OF Bangor:
who introduced the resolve. declared
that nothing new had been brought

Paris, March 81. (By A. P)-
Deputy Charles Guernier, the off,
cial reporter on the Washington
naval treaty today made his long
deferred report to the foreign af-
fairs committee of the Chamber of
Deputies. While his conclusions were
favorable to ratification by France,
his exceptions and reservations were
such that majority of the commit
tee thought it necessary to give Ar
istide Bri nd and Rene Viviani. the
former of which headed the French
delegation to the Washington con-
ference. but later was succeeded by
NJ. Viviani. a chance, to be heard
before the committee made it's rec
concentrations.
1t was also decided by the commit
tee that Premier Poincare should be
afforded an opportunity to present
the governments definite viewpoint
on tn agreement and on motion of
Deputy Soulier it was decided to
p, stpone any further deliberations
until invitations had been sent to
NJ. 7oincare. BRAND and Viviani to
appear before the commission.
NJ. Guernier's exceptions and res
ervations were two-fold. The first
wac tht France would be bound for
too long a period of time by the
agreement and the second that the
allotment tonnage was out of pro-
portion to the country's needs regard
ing the safety of the seaboards of
the mother country and of the COL
onies. NJ. Guernier argued that NJ.
BRAND and Viviani had failed to
safeguard the best interests of
France and that the United States.
Great Britain and Japan had treated
her as poor country cousin"
The PR 0osal of Mr.. Guernier con-
corning the committees report rec
ommendinG that the French govern
ment requst parliament to ratify the
accord. vas worded in a manner
which was interpreted bya mapority
Of the committee as placing the
blame for the agreement on NJ. Bri-
and. Eiviyiani. Sarraut, and the en-
! tire French delegation to the Wash
