MCF COMPROMISE
MI1S FINAL TESI
Tomorrow's Bipartisan Confer
ence Will Reveal if Composing
Differences Is Impossible
,
Wellington, Jan. 2S. Before Senate
lenders are reailv to throw Tip the
sponge, acil admit that further com
promise ncKotinlimii ou the peace treaty
'in' the bi-partisan conference are fu
tile, they will make another effort
tomorrow to overcome the stumbling
blocks found in Articlo X and the Mon
roe doctrine.
With the whole parley threatened
with collnpc by the widened gap be
tween the Democratic and Republican
conferees on the two issues involved,
they agreed to grant a brentbins spell
over todav bo that they may take in
ventory of their compromise stock.
If the conferees fall to draft an ac
ceptable compromise, the floor of the
Senate probably will be the vcene of
another embittered fifiht on treaty rati
fication. In answer to the Democrat'
expressed intentions of carrying the
treaty bck to the Senate chamber iu
lieu of a compromise prog nm, the Re
publicans declared that nothing could
corao of such move, as the Senate
would resume its old lineup and sit
tight.
But for Article X and the Monroe
Doctrine provisions, Senate leaders de
clared they would bo nble to reach a
quick settlement of their differences, as
virtually all other points of contention
have been agreed upou tentatively. In
reaching agreement ou the other ques
tions it was pointed out that both side
Rave ground, the Democrat accepting
some of the Republican reservations
without change, while the Republicans
agreed to changes in others as requested
by the Democrats.
Mr. Hitchcock undoubtedly scored
yesterday. It was expected the Demo
crats would present a flat refusal to the
Republican program of declining to alter
In form or principle the reservation on
Article X and the Mouroc Doctrine.
There were protests from the Demo
crats when the bipartisan committee
met. but they carefully avoided any
threat of withdrawal from the commit
tee and brought matters to a head after
two hours of dNi ussion, maiuly ou

the treat on the floor of the Senate.
The Republicans opposed that, and
asked for an adjournment of the con-
fcreuces until Thursdnv to spC if some
form of procedure could nut be pvolvrd.

on the Article X reservation as made

Declares Letter Written by "Outcast"
Mr. Stedman asserted evidence would
show that tho letter pledging support to
Martens was written uot by the So
cialist organization, but bv a group
which after "an open political rup
ture," hud been excluded from the So
cialist nnrty. This group, bo charged,
had taken the name and seal of the
party, later being ejected from the
hc'idciiiarters it occuiiicd.
Not only was Wnldmau not u mem

but the "outcasts" had nominated a
candidate to run ngniust him.
At the same time Mr. Stedman re
newed a motion to strike out all speeches
except those made by the five defendants,
ou the ground that theq were not re
sponsible for what others had snld.
Speeches to whose introduction Mr.
Stedman objected included some made
at u celebration in New York of the
second anniversary of the Russian revo
lution, which wns attended by some of
'lie defendunts.
Socialists' Plea Denied
Mr. Stedmnn's mention of a split in
the Eighth Assembly district followed
a line he took jestcrilay when, denying
that the Socialists hud indorsed the
program of violence outlined in the
manifesto adopted at the Communist
Internutionole in Moscow , he declared
that at the time the Socialists wer
meeting in Chicago there also was in

"between whom there is a clearly
marked distinction."

SCORES GOV. EDWARDS
Representative Kelly Says Failure
to Enforce, Prohibition Is Treason
Mlddletown, Conn., Jan. 28. (By A.
P.l A bitter attack on Governor Ed
wards, of Xcw Jersey, by Congressman
Tatrlck II. Kcllley, Republican, of
Michigan, featured the nnuual banquet
of the McKiulcy Association of Connec
ticut, hero last night.
"Governor Edwards was elected after
laying down n strange doctrine for
America," snld Representative Kcllcy,
"for he lrtunlly said ho would enforce
the laws that suit him. In taking office
he took the oath to enforce nil thc'laws.
"If he attempts to curry out his pro
gram of opposition to the enforcement
of tht piohobltion amendment, there is
some comfort to bo taken out of the
fact that such conduct would constitute
tun&ou against the United States, nnd
he would undoubtedly merit the fate of
others in the pnst wlio tried to nulllf
the constitution aud the laws of the
United States.",

Well to, Wait for "Lightning"
It is well to wait for the lightning
to strike. This is the view of Governor
Allen's frieuds. It is probably tho view
that animated Governor Coolidgc's most
recent statement. Perhaps it is the
motive of Governor Sproul.

tho hituation is different. Goodrich was
merely n machine proposal. There was
never the slightest prospect of his
nomination. Ho is not popular iu his
own state.
Ho was invited into the raco to keep
Wood from getting the, Indiana delega
tion. He withdrew from it because sev
eral of the Iudlaim congressmen would
not elgn n letter indorsing his candi
dacy. His weakness was revealed nt
the outset. He, wasn't really even n
favorite son.
His withdrawal helps Wood, but the
prospects arc still that the two Indianu
senators, New and Watson, will con
trol the stato delegation against Wood
without tho aid of a favorite son. New
'is a warm personal friend of Senator
llanliug. Wntson is u friend of Sen
ator Penrose.
Roosevelt Forces Split
What helps them nnd many others
similarly placed, including the two sen
ators from New Jersey, is the unex
pected strength of Senator Johusou.
It's entrance into Iiuliiina splits the
Roosevelt forces. The radicals, who
lei'th' have voted for Wood because of
his association with Roosevelt, will vote
for Johnson.
His chances of carrying Indiana nnd
New Jersey, too, appear about as good
as Wood's. Aud the chances of the
ni-onnlzntinn electinc tmiiistructcd dele
gates over both of thcin appear best of
all.
Senator Johnson hns done much to
break up the favorite-son movement,
