Washington; July 2. The next Important move in the eenate disagree ment over- reservations to the peace treaty is expected to come from Presi dent Wilson. Having canvassed the senate situa tion in his conference with 15 republi can eenatora, all of whom are said to lrave told him they would support cer tain reservations, it is believed that the president soon will make known defir nltely his attitude toward such' a course. It was indicated at the White House today, that expression of his views on the .subject might not await his speaking tour to begin two weeks hence, but might be embodied in a pub lic statement in a few days. This aroused great interest among republican senators. Several repub licans have told Mr. Wilson the treaty never could be ratified without interpre tative qualifications and yesterday at the suggestion, it is understood, of Re publican Leader Lodge, a tentative draft of reservations indicating in a general way the trend of opinion among many republicans was laid before the president by Senator Spencer, repub lican, Missouri, Leaders for reservations eay it is now the president's move. Programme la Outlined. The group of republicans, who, under the lead of Senator McCumber, North Dakota, and Mc.Nary, Oregon, are work ing on a reservation programme de signed to clarify the league of nations covenant without vitally weakening it. believe the president will announce his acceptance of such a course and that quick ratification of the treaty will en tile. In their talks with Mr. Wilson, they say. he has indicated no radical antagonism to senate qualification, his only fear being tfiat the whole subject might be thrown back into re-negotiation. The president's democratic support ers in the senate are not in accord with this view and predict he will assert himself for unreserved ratification and then go to the country- in an effort to fortify public sentiment behind that stand. The president saw no republican sen ators today, but in a letter to Mr. Lodge replied to inquiries , about the treaty sent to the White House by the foreign relaions committee. He wrote that so far as he knew. no. decision had been reached for division of Germany's in demnity payments under the treaty's provision that-it shall be allotted among her enemies "in the proportion which has been determined by them in ad vance." The letter also said Mr. Wil son was preparing to send the commit tee papers they had asked for in con nection with the Versailles negotiations. Data Asked For. The last sentence of the letter was interpreted in some quarters as mean ing the president would withhold some of the documents in his possession, though the committee s resolution was very sweeping in character, asking for "all dat- that concerned the negotia tions. The president's letter to Mr. Lodge said: "In response to your letter of July 22 requesting ne. on behalf of the com mittee on foreign relations to send to the committee the agreement, referred to In article 237 of the treaty with Germany, in the event that such an agreement has been determined upon by the allied and associated govern ments, I would say that so far as know such an agreement has not yet , been reached. As I recollect the bust ness, an attempt was being made to reach such an agreement, but I have not yet learned of an agreement having been arrived at. "May I not add. with regard to the other request which I have received from the committee for papers and in formation for various sorts, that I was not able to bring from Paris a com plete file of papers. I brought with me only those which happened to be in my hands when I left France. These alone constitute a considerable mass of papers, and I have been going over them as rapidly as time and my en gagements permitted, and must beg the committee's indulgence for the delay in informing them which I can supply mem with. Today Chairman Lodge discussed some features of the treaty with Secre tary Lansing. Mr. Lodge is understood to have suggested that the committee have the benefit of expert advice on some sections, particularly those deal ing with alien enemy property. It i expected that Bradley Palmer and others who advised the American dele gation at Versailles, will appear before the committee next week. President llson had intended, it was said at the White House, to go to the capitol this afternoon and talk over the treaty situation with adminis tration senators. He abandoned the plan when he learned the senate was not in session and that Senator Hitch cock, Nebraska, the administration leader In the treaty fifrht. was out o town. The foreign relations committee expects to complete preliminary read Ing ot the treaty text Monday. Bitter 1-lght Likely. in the opinion of many republican tenaiors tne lines to be drawn in th reservation controversy rests with th president. They say if he gives his assent to a reservation programme tie signed to further safeguard national interests, they quickly can come t such an agruement as to insure ratifi cation of the treaty. But if he takes an uncompromising stand for unre served ratification and then by publi speeches attempts to discredit th ocnaiors who are noicing. out against it, ine opposition leaders look for long and bitter fight.
