A third, that it will be the first Item of the Harding progrum and will be passed "early" at some vague date, not Immediately nnd not three months from now. Party Is Split Temporarily The truth is thnt the President nnd Secretary Hughes favor delay with re gard to the Knox resolution, and they are likely to have delay unless some development causes them to change their minds nnd accept early passage of the resolution.
