Aim challenged In the Senate today
(jy Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska,
ranking Democratic member of ?h<j
Sonato Foreign Helations Committee,

fjenstor I.odge, of Mass.ich isetts. He
publican leader, and Senator I.enroot.
Republican. Wisconsin
By fall Ihk to ai t yesterday on the
'Ideclaration" relating to domestic
questions of the delegates who
signed the four-power part. Senator
Hitchcock naid. tlv> Senate had not
Complied with legal requirements for
notification of the entire tr<ai>. lie
^intended and Mr. Uodge denied that
the declaration was .1 part "f tho
four-power measure. Senator Lodge
?aid he would off- r a resolution later

, Decide to Meet tlliji'etlon.
\ At first the administration leaders
refused to recognize any merit in the
Suggestion. hut after several confer
onres they decided that some fur
flier action was advisable. Most of
tihem opposed the r?cons deration
jJlan. proposing instead, a separate
ratification vote on the supplement.
Such a separate resolution ?>f rati'i
oat ton was m pre.ess < ? f drafting
when the Senate adjourned nv.-r Sun
da y. j
* Throughout the day's debate the
treaty opponents sought to giv< point
to their arguments by emphasising: i
that t!ie supplement deals with is-i
rfues which long have been sources
Qf friction between the United States
and Japan. It declares it to be the
understanding of the signatories
that the treaty shall apply to man
dated Islands In the I'aclii. . and that
purely domes I le questions shall not
be brought lufure ?}??? four-power
conference for "consideration ami ad
justment."
Immigration Domcntie UueMbin.
Many tint. - in (lie debate the ques
tion of Japanese Immigration into
the United States was mentioned as
a "domestic" American question
which might be a fruitful source of
trouble. Senator* on both sldt x agt -
fnc that no doubt ought to be 1* ft
that the American government re
tains full pow. r to deal with the
subject as it sees fit. Those who
asked for a reconsideration contend
ed that unless the validity of the
Supplement w?-r<- ?stabll-hed clearly.
Japan might claim the privilege- of
feferring the whole Immigration
problem of lb- I'.-citle <"oast to a
meeting of the pow ? r>.
