Than Senators, lie Says.
WASHINGTON, .Feb. 2-cnato
republican leaders Joined . forces
with the detnocratfl today to bring
the peace treaty back Into the, sen
ate next wok.
Countering the democratic plan to
reopen debate a woek from tomor
row, fionator Lodgo, republican
leader, served notlco ho would mako
a similar effort a week from today.
Th .arllcr date was accepted by) the
, democrats In many quarters. If was
predlCXeu lu&l couBiucrwvi u wiu
treaty would bo resumed, then by
l unanimous consent.
It was emphasized, ho ever, th.at
itns agreement 10 pus. mo ui w
fore the eenate again did not mean
the leaders -were optlmlsMo over
propocts of Its final disposition. It
was predicted that nomo minor
points at ItKUO, threshed out In pri
vate and Informal negotiations,
might soon bo agreed on by tho sen
ate, but senators were not so hope
ful over the disagreement on artlclo
10 and tho Monroo doctrlno.
Try to Stop Debate
As soon as a resumption of open
discussion senmod assured, leaders
put their heads together to work out
a method of keeping dobato within
reasonable bounds. Revival of tho
cloture rule, applied during tho clos
ing hours of the last ecaslon, was
suggested, but many senators
thought It too drastic, and it was
generally predicted somo other
method would bo found.
Two resolutions to amend the sen
ate rules to bring u modlflod cloture',
one by Senator Curtis, republican of
Kansas, and one by Senator Kellogg,
republican of Minnesota, uro bo
fore Ihe rules committee, which
plus to meet soon to consider thorn.
The leaders also went ovor the pos
sibilities of bringing ono rncasura up
for senato action without waiting
on the committee and it was said
such a move might bo madoMomor
row, ,
Urol In New Attack.
Meantlmo discussion of tho treaty
broke out on tho floor, Sonator
Reed, democrat of Missouri, making
a speech of two hours and a half In
reply to tho published letter of Vis
count Orey, British ambassador to
the United States, ' regarding sen
nits reservations. Tho lettor, he do-
elared, showed that British thinkers
are willing to give more considera
tion to American righto than wore
some members of tho sonata.
Quoting Viscount Grey's statement
that there could bo "no objection In
Principle to equal American and
British representation In tho league
of nations," Senator Reed continued:
"What sonator now will voto
aralnst the Johnson amendment? If
ny more voto r.-ulnst it, I think wo
oght to mako a vacancy here In the
senate and Install Lord Grey who
could represent America better than
some American senators have been
representing her. It U a pitiable
twne that the American senate has
to learn tho lesson of American
rights from the month of a British
.diplomat." The Grey letter Sonator
"eed characterized as "another evi
dence that Great Britain and Franco
want us in tho league on our own
terms. '
"it I nn Attn- . T: 1 t , v.
soded, "to coax us into tho leaguo
and by Indirection to tako charge of
w senate and tell us how to com
Ptte our differences."
