It is likely that|*h Conditions In the United States senate are quite different today from what they were when President W il son recommended the ratification by that body of the Versailles treaty. That document had been formulated without the advice of the senate and without the approval of Its terras by the leader or representative of eith er political party in the senate. Then, as now, it was quite generally re garded as a serlou« tactical blun der on the part of Mr. Wilson that he did not seek the advice, in the early stages of the peace delibera tlon», of some of the leaders o f his own party in the senate and of those of the opposition whose support was essential to the “ access of the great undertaking upon which he had de cided to enter. Now, with the ratifi cation of the p-mding treaties sought by the adtutnisira-lon, It 1* pointed out that those documents are spon sored by the leai’ ers of both the ma jor political parties in the senate, •Mr. Lodge repr.-senting the Repub licans, and Mr. Underwood the Dem ocrats, each having had a large part in the formulation o f the treaties and being able to defend them against whatever opposition may be i manifested hy irreconcilable or dis senting groups. — Christian Science i Monitor.
