6 TIIE SUXDAT OREGOXIAX, rORTLAXD, JULY 27. 1D19. LEAGUE ARE ENDED .fhree Republicans Against , Strong,-Reservations. HUGHES ANALYSIS AWAITED tHhcr Nations Beginning to Realize That President Wilson Does "ot Dominate American Situation. 'Continued From First Page.) cently he did not contend privately that to add reservations would defeat the treaty. There is also evidence that the other Nations are beginning to realize that , President Wilson does not dominate the situation in the United States. An inti mation of this is carried in a cable printed in the New York Times today from its correspondent at the peace conference. R. V. Oulahan. who at other times is chief of the Times Washington , Dureau. Mr. Oulahan, cabling from "Ex-President Taffs letter to Chair man Hays, summaries of which have been published in Paris, has produced comment in allied quarters that shows : . . . ; . . rr-rr,-i t a thp mnxiety to have the American senate ratify the Versailles treaty without de lay and permit the United States to en ter the league of nations that some of those who deprecate the senate's op position are becoming resigned to the rather despairing view that it is better ' to swallow the nasty dose embodied in the proposed reservations than have the present world disturbance continue through the disquietude caused by agi tation in America. , Other Looked To. "One or two perhaps as many as three of those prominent or fairly so in the American peace contingent are of opinion that reservations by the senate to the league covenant will not necessarily keep the United States out cf participation in the execution of the treaty for any great period. "Their views, which were brought tout by requests for opinions as to Mr. Taft's position, are that other allies might be disposed to waive their right to insist that the United States could not enter the league or join in the ratification of the peace with Germany until all other signatories to the treaty had accepted the senate's amendments." This is taken in Washington as an indication that the foreign signatories have decided that they might consider the views of someone else in the United States beside President Wilson. They have made up their mind that they must listen to such leaders of Ameri can thought as Taft, Root and Hughes, who were excluded from the peace . conference by the president's hard Jwiled partisan ship. They are turning away from Mr. "Wilson on the theory that such deter mined senate opposition to the treaty could never have grown and thrived .' in the face of all of the protests of the president unless there was some demand from the people for strength ening certain clauses for the better - protection cf the interests - of this - country. League Not Opposed. The 46 republican senators who are - opposed to the treaty in its present form are not necessarily against the league of nations. The fact is that r.there are only three last-ditch, irre- concilable republicans 'Borah of Idaho, JPoindexter of Washington and Brande- gee of Connecticut. The other 43 republicans who make up the 46 stand ready to support the I treaty with some good sound props un- der the league of nations covenant and , a. better understanding as to the Shan- tung provision of the peace treaty. A curious fact is that neither Mr. I "Wilson nor his followers assail the 'principles involved in the proposed res t ervations. Their only argument is that such res " torvations will compel the resubmission of the treaty and thereby defeat or pro ' long the discussion. The 43 republicans who ask reservation along the lines 'adopted by Taft and Root and which I Hughes is expected to offer, are simply trying to drive a better bargain. In ' other words these republicans are not 4 trying to destroy the treaty. It is their desire to improve it Politics Is Seen. The dominant opinion in Washington i ww is that from this moment the fate of the treaty is very much in the hands of the Taft-Root-Hughes republican tri- umvirate and that the proposed tour of the president will in no matter alter the outcome. Of course there is politics in it. There is politics in everything that is done within this government. Republicans show general satisfac tion with the present situation, which they say is due largely to the clever - and far-ighted political generalship of Will H. Hays, republican national chair- man. Chairman Hays has developed into a big man, capable of grappling i with any question and able to steer his party in safe channels. He has out generaled Mr. Wilson's forces at every Wrn by organizing a leadership in be- half of the United States interosts in the treaty which will yet accomplish in this country what Mr. Wilson failed to achieve for the United States at Paris. And all the while Honer S. Cummings. chairman of the democratic national committee, has been traveling around the country talking to a few of his party here and there in platitudes and ; partisan generalities. One week more of the legislative - prind and the house will shut up shop tor four to six weeks, a recess on Au- . Rust 2 having been agreed upon. The senate, however, will stay through the eunimer and continue the consideration of the general peace treaty and the ," epecial treaty with France if the presi- dent sees tit to submit the latter docu ment at any time soon. BRITISH MINES CRIPPLED Disas-tcr VcarctI Following With drawal of Pumpmen. (Copyright by the New York World. Pub lished by arranjroment.) LONDON. July 26. (Special Cable.) It is stated, says the Daily Telegraph, . that as a consequence of the with drawal of pumpmen and engine men In thfe Yorkshire mines a disastrous affect in some of the mines will be permanent.

Only Veterans' Posts Are Opposed to Man Named on Public Service Board, Is Declaration. OLTMPIA, Wash.. July 26. (Spe cial.) Acting Governor Louis F-.Hart will not withdraw his recent appoint ment of Senator ' E. V. Kuykendall as chairman of the public service commis sion to succeed K. V. Blaine on August 15, unless it is shown that the appoint ee's qualifications for the special duties are seriously affected, declared Mr. Hart today. The statement was in reply to the demand made bv Colonel Theodore Roosevelt Post No. 24. Vete rans of Foreign Wars. Objection to Senator Kuydendall is based on his vote against the passage of the Lamp ing bill last winter. This bill pro posed a half mill tax levy to furnish cash awards to returned soldiers. It provoked the most determined fight of the last session and lost only by one vote. Acting Governor Hart says that of more than 100 letters and telegrams approving the appointment of Senator Kuykendall. in addition to numerous instances of favorable newspaper com ment, the foreign veterans' protest is the only dissenting note heard. The protest is accepted as evidence that the Lamping bill vote will be kept alive as a campaign isue for 1920. when Colonel George B. Lamping, author of the bill, is expected to become a can didate for the republican nomination for governor. One veteran's post ob jecting to Senator Kuykendall is lo cated ai Seattle, Colonel Lamping's home. FACULTY MEMBERS CHOSEN University School of Muic Staff Is Enlarged. EUGENE. Or.. July 26.
