to the senate the docu-

up. Senator McKellar of Tennessee
led this fight and was supported not
only by other opponents of the treaty
but also by some who had announced
their intention of voting for ratifi-
cation,
“The demand we are making Is a
demand of right on the part of the co-
equal of the Executive in treaty mak-
ing," said Senator McKellar, “and
consequently cannot be Incompatible
with the public interest.”
On the other hand, Senator Reed of
Pennsylvania, one of the delegates to
London, who has had access to the
secret documents, more than intimated
that they contain picturesque animad
versions by Ambassador Charles GQ.
Dawes upon Prime Minister MacDon-
ald and other British statesmen, the
disclosure of which would necessitate
recall of the ambassador and other
wise play havoc with Anglo-American
relations.
Senator Robinson of Arkansas, an-
other delegate, hinted the same thing,
saying: “Some of these messages
contain references to other govern-
ments which if disclosed might make
us ridiculous, Such resentments might
he created In other countries that the
treaty would not be ratified by them.”
Finally a modified resolution was
adopted by a vote of 53 to 4 requesting
the President to submit to the senate
all documents bearing on the treaty,
“if not incompatible with the public
interest” to do so, It algo nsked the
President to make recommendations as

flower state appeared as a spokesman
for the opponents of the plan, which
he sald was unfair to the hard wheat
belt where conditions prevented the
growing of other crops to advantage.
Charging that present wheat prices
are. not justified by world conditions,
he called upon the farm board to exer
cise the powers granted it by the
agricultural marketing act to protect
the wheat farmer.
. Replying to Governor Reed's insing-
ation of farm board “inaction,” Chair-
man Legge sald that wheat “already
had received In the board's stabiliza-
tion operations twice its proportionate
share” of the $500,000,000 relief fund.
TATISTICS prepared by the old
dry bureau under Doran show that
prohibition enforcement during its last
fiscal year under the Treasury de
murtment resulted in the arrest of 08,-
186 persons’ and the seizure of 24.373
stills, The figures showed an increase
of approximately 7.000 in the number
of stills seized. The figures included
the number of arrests and seizures for
11 months of the year and estimated
arrests and seizures for June.

Executive mansion more than three
manths ago, it was said In Washington
she planned to go back soon to the
camp and remain there most of July.
Consideration for Mra, Hoover's
