Vigorous Fight
on French Pact
Continued From r.iiro One
Mr. Dillingham said lie did not get the
impression that such a statement would
be forthcoming.
Senator Hauling, of Ohio, n Repub
lican member of the foreign relations
committee, also conferred w ith the
President on the pence treaty. Upon
leaving the White House liu dictated
this statement :
"The President espeiinllj emphasized
the einbnrinssmonts nnd dola.vs which
would result from reservations 011 tlie
part of the l'nited States because sue b
a course will justify like aition on
the part ?f other signatories of the
treaty."
Senator Hauling denied that he bad
become a "convert" to the President's
program of ratification of the treat
without reservation's.
Calls Other Senators
Senators Fernald, Maine, and I.en
root, Wisconsin, also were on the Pres
ident's appointment list today. For to
morrow the President has invited Sen
ators New and Watson, Indiana, and
Keyes, New Hampshire.
Roth the Senate and foreign relations
committee are in recess toduj .
Action of the Senate members in
agreeing to consider nt nn open ses
sion Monday the treaty with Colombia,
thereby breaking n custom that has
stood for more than n hundred years,
was being discussed today as probablj
forecasting similar notion when the
treaties with Germany and Frame are
acted upon.
Decision to consider the Colombian
treaty at n public session followed thel mont for return from I lance of the
action of the foreign relations committee 1 bodies of American soldiers were made
in voting unanimous approval of the' in almost every instimie by relatives

Before voting approval the committee i was summoned before the committee to
expunged the clause contained in the explain the letter. He admitted the
original draft and under which the letter was "stupid and exaggerated."
United States would hnve expressed re-1 nnd expressed n desire to withdraw it.
gret for certain actions coincident w ith I r
proceedings for the construction of the
Panama canal. Elimination of this
clause was made satisfactory to Colom
bia through diplomats representing the
two republics. Other changes were onlj
of a minor sort.
Guard Official Text
Unusual steps to guard the official
text of the French defensive treaty, sub
mitted yesterday to the Senate by Pres
ident Wilson, rending final action upou
