International News Service


The Senate's old irreconcilable
band was fighting a losing battle
today for adoption Of resolution
of explanation" in connection with
ratification of the Kellogg BRAND
antiwar treaty.
An incomplete poll Of the Senate
by International News Service in
Dictated the irreconciliables would
muster less than score of votes
for their explanatory resolution. Its
defeat seemed assured since the
whole group Of League of Nations
Democrats has united with Admin
istration leaders to ratify the treaty
without conditions.
The treaty fight entered it's sec.
ond week with Senator Thomas J.
Walsh CD of Montana scheduled
to conclude the defense of the COM
pact. Thereafter the irreconcilables
will have a clear right of way to
debate as long as they please.
Check for Filibuster
If the debate indicates a filibuster
is being conducted, Administration
leaders plan night sessions. Their
program will be directed toward
securing ratification before the end
Of the week.
The real opposition to adoption
of a resolution of explanation was
revealed today. The Administration
group has two reasons; the Demo
cratic pro-treaty forces. one.
They believe the resolution, If
adopted, would strike a blow at the
prestige of the State Department,
since it would be interpreted as
censuring Secretary of State FRANK
B. Kellogg for alIegedly failing to
properly protect the interests of the
United States while negotiating the
treaty.
They likewise believe the resolu.
ton would weaken Americas posi-
ton under the treaty, holding that
the reservations in the British and
French notes apply equally to the
United States and amply protect
her interests, while a new "reserva
ton" would have to be approved
by all signatory nations before it
became effective.
Hold League Endorsed
The Democrats have a different
reason. They believe the treaty,
as interpreted by tic British and
French notes, endorses both the
League of Nations and the World
Court while the resolution of ex-
PLANTATION, as sponsored by Senator
Moses (R) of New Hampshire
would specifically exempt the
United States from having inter-
course with either organization.
The. Democrats likewise believe
that unconditional ratification of
the treaty will pavo the way to
American participation and, sub
sequently, her actual entry into the
World Court, in order to obtain
proper tribunal for the adjudica.
ton of disputes.
Democratic leaders. such as Sena-
tor Robinson of Arkansas and
Senator Swanson of Virginia, have
never given up hope of securing
American entry into the World
Court They feel this step will
be taken ultimately and they hope
the day will be FASTENED by the
Kellogg.Briand treaty.
