WASHINGTON, May 4. "There Is

I will veto the Knox peace resolution,"
I i r was flatly stated in an authoritative
I quarter here today. Administration

will veto it "and veto it quick."
A presidential campaign on a
straight out issue of the treaty of Ver

pears possible today. Democratic
j Leader Underwood let It be known
Uhat all' plans for a democratic fili
j buster against the Knox resolution
have been cancelled at the suggestion
!of the white house. Adoption of the
J resolution seems likely In view of the
(democratic attitude. Both sides have
I predicted it would receive a majority

Wilson's veto would present this Is
