Sideration.
President Hoover recently an
nounced that he would call spec
ial senate session unless the instru-
ment were disposed of before con-
gress adjourns.
Senators opposing immediate con-

the country needed more time to

fication, if accomplished at all,
might well be delayed until next
fall.
Confidence in administration

Fewer than a dozen senators have
expressed public opposition to the
treaty so far. One more vote than
one-third of the senate is required
for rejection.
