The new treaty w;th Germany v. a Uli before members cf the senate, for- ;gn relation committee Wednesday !and wa? received by tliem with some 1 expression of uncertainty bul with ja general show of approval. I The text of ti.e treaty wa not made public, pending word of its ! signature in Berlin, but it became known that the document reaffirms in exact language the principal fea tures of the peace resolution and gives force to various portions of the unratified treaty of Versailles A first impreeion of approval wae voiced by republican and democratic I A t- U)aa m Am n H a on. I n U K A!? K final decisions were reserved there appeared little prospect tonlpht that the treaty would lead to a long or bitter fight when it is submitted for mally for ratification. Its submis sion is expected as soon as the sen ate reas?emb!e a month hence after the congressional recess. Among the firsl to express a fa vorable opinion from the democratic side was Sen. Hitchcock, of Neb.. who. as senior democratic members of the committee, led the fight for I ratification of the Versailles treaty. Declaring he had received a "very favorable impression of the newly negotiation pact, Mr. Hitchcock eaid he paw no reason why it should not be ratified promptly. Similar views were expressed privately by other democrats, although none would talk for publication. Borah aii1 Jolinon Knlgma. Among the republican members of the committee, the only enigma was presented by the attitude of Sena tors Borah f Idaho and Johnson of California. The latter is absent from Vashingtu and Sen. Borah had not a word tu pay until nc nan oppor tunity for further study of the treaty. All the other republican commit teemen are said to have agreed to support ratification. The treaty text which has been negotiated at Berlin under an in hibitan of secrecy requested by this government first was laid before the republican members today at a ton- ference with Pres t Harding and Secy. Hughes at the white house and later was communicated to the full committee by Mr. Hughes at the capitol. Many questions were ask ed but it wae said there was little rhow of hostility on the part of any committeeman. The conference at the white house lasted for an hour and a half and that at the capitol more than an hour. l -,vv? of r. j s. . . I it' V - ': ? J J : ;, . -iU.' 'J f . ';; v-:-.
