Final legislative action to
end the conflict waa taken yesterday.
and as soon aa President Harding
does his part, aa he haa already
pledged himself to do, peace
win be formally restored, approximately
two and a half years after
hostilities oaaaed-The
conference report on tne
peace resolution was adopted by the
Senate ysterday, 38 to 19. following
the sane action by the House Fri*
day. The report waa then sent
back to the House to be signed by
the Speaker in regular session. A
moment later It was back again
before the Senate, where Vice
President Coolldge attached his signature.
It was then sent at one*
to the White House, whence It probably
will be f?Twarded to President
Harding at the summer residence
of Senator Frellnghuysen in New
Jersey.
Seute G. O. P. Solid.
The restoration of peace may be
an accomplished fact today, although
belief prevailed in some
Quarters that the President mlgnt
withhold the formal proclamation
until July 4, to give Independence
pry a special significance this year.
The resolution, aa finally adopted
merely declares the war with Germany
and Austria at an end, and
reserves to the "United States all
rifhta and privilege# which this nation
would h-ve obtained under the
treaty of Versailles. The provision
repealing the declaration of war
waa stricken out because of tne
contention of House members that
It might be construed as a repudiation
of the war.
The Senate Republicans, as usual,
presented a solid front In favor of
the resolution. All of the nineteen
voles against K were cast by Democrats.
Three Democrats?Shields, or
Tennessee; Walsh, of Massachu*
setta. and Wataon. of Georgia?supported
the resolution, while several
others, including Reed, of Missouri,
were paired in favor of it.
The roll call was preceded ny !
hours of debate described by Senator
Brandegee, of Connecticut, as
"inconsequential. Idle, fruitless, and
unnecessary."
Democrats Pretest Act.
Most of the talking was done by
half a dosenV Democrats, who continued
to protest against the resolution
as an unprecedented method
of making peace.
Senator Brandegee, one of the
most influential of the "irreconcllables,"
served notice that any attempt
to revive the treaty of Versailles.
in whole or in part, would
be most bitterly contested. Resubmission
of the tresty, he declared.
would be "an untoward
event.**
Democratic Senators wanted to
know if the American troops would
be brought back from Germany on
the proclamation of peace.
"It la my hope and expectation,"
said Senator Brandegee, -that tne
troops will be returned as soon as
the President signs this resolution.
If the troops are in Germany to enforce
the terms of the Versailles
treaty, as some o* my Democratic
colleague? have intimated, then
there is all the more reason that
they be returned. My highest hope
is that America may get back to a
peace status with?Germany and
Mind her own business as far as
Surope will allow us to do so."
Psasaae Perfanctory.
No formality attended the action.
Senators urging "Vote, vote," after
Senator LaFollette had condemned
the seizure of German property,
^nd the clerk called the roll. The
scene contrasted with the entry or
America into the war. There was
none of the patriotic fervor, and
only a few persons were ih the galleries.
The entire performance was
perfunctory, for it was a foregone
conclusion thst the resolution
woulU pass.
Democrats argued that passage
of the resolution meant that America
must make a separate peace
with Germany or accept the treaty
of Versailles.
Senator Lodje. Republican leader,
and chairman of the Committee on
Foreign Relations, Interrupted a
speech by Senator King, of Utah
(Democrat), to remark that King
was mistaken if he thought the
treaty of Versailles would be resubmitted.
Senator Brandegee said that *
of "amity and commerce"
with Germany might embody all the
safeguards America might desire.
Brandegee contended that there
would be no necessity for a treaty
of peace after the UMted States
had declared that peace exists.
"Political Sarreader."
Senator Underwood charged that
the passage of the resolution would
he a political surrender on the part
of America Senator Walsh, of
Montana (Democrat), argued that
Provisions of the resolution i.latlng
to the right of American
citizens to demand claim's were
broader than either the armlstlca or
the treaty, and that these agree
nients wer, violated. ,
Senator Pomerene. of Ohio (Dam- .

Many Features.
A merger of the street ear companies

of materialisation each day. accordin#?
to several members of the House
District Committee. With the present
opposition to the consolidation
of an ytwo utilities in the District
it hardly seems possible that either
the Ball or the Woods bill will survive
the House District Committee
meeting next week.
Representative Woods has within
the past few days expressed a willingness
to amend his bll lto a certain
extent, but its opponents insist
that so long as it provides for
the amalgamation of the street car
companies with the Potomac Electric
Power Company they will fight
it to the bitter endKeller
Bfll Gilaa Frleait.
Contrary to all expecatlons. the
Keller bill is still alive and gaining
some friends in Congress other than
members of the District Committee.
The position taken by Representative
Hammer, of North Carolina, on
the Keller bill is similar to that of
many other members of tb* House
District Committee. Hummer made
the statement yesterday that in ordinary
circumstances he lea strongly
opposed to any form of municipal
ownership!! but he inaisted that the
street car situation in Waahington
is not a condition that might be
expected to grow out of the ordinary
course of events.
"I believe that remedies other
than those offered by municipal
ownership do exist." Hammer declared
yesterday, "but to merge the
* Washington Railvay *and Electric
rorapany with the Potoflfrac Electric
power Company does not. In my
( mind, constitute a remedy.
Demands Fare Deereane.
' -Unless fares are reduced as a result
of any legislation passed, the
I people will not derive the benefits
l they demand and are Justly entitled
to. Th? reduction of fares has beeu
the foundation of all complaint and
itfshould be the foundation of any
i legislation proposed ss a remedy.
It has been pinted oat repeatedly
that the Ball bill, if it becomes a
law, will not reduce the fares. This
was acknowledged at the hearings
of the committee by the president
of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company and Potomac
Electric Power Company. who
should be in a position to know. I
will certainly vote against any bill
that condones the amalgamation of
these two corporations.
Representative Florian Lampert,
a member of the House District
Committee, contends that the prrter.t
street car problem In Washington
is an exceptional one, and. although
he has vigorously opposed
municipal ownership of car lines in
the past, he has come to the conclusion
that it should be put into
operation in the District if the people
are to derive the maximum benefits
of a consolidation. I^ampert is
also unalterably opposed to a merger
of any two different utilities
under private ownership. "The reason
for this." he explained yesterday,
"is that if the situation has
become acute that a merger of different
kinds of utilities is necessary
or even desirable, then the control
of these utilities should pass to the
people."
Rumors of Cempremlee.
Many members, who are opposed
to the Keller bill for public ownership.
are as strongly opposed to the
consolidation of the Potomac Electric
Power Company with the Washington
Railway and Electric Company,
all of which seems to indicate
that a large majority of the members
of the committee are In favor
of a measure which would seem to
be a modification of the second
Hammer bill. This measure will
come up before the full committee
next week, and many expect It to
be amended and perhaps reported
upon favorably by the committee to
be passed on to Congress at an
early date.
It was rumored yesterday that a
new bill embodying the desirable
features of the most popular bills
now before the committee will be
offered as a compromise. Details
wer#_Jaek!ng, butu It was claimed
that this new bill provides for the
absolute divorce of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company from
the Potomac Electric Power Company.

the District will pay 60 per cent or

of $1.95. which is to be included in
