HITCHCOCK SAYS KNOX'S ATTACK ON
TREATY INSANE -
Washlngton.-Special). Derlurlng
that any amendment to the treaty of
peace, good or bail, reasonable ur nn.
reasonable, means tho defeat of the
treaty with all Its disastrous conse
queiiro. Senator Hitchcock of Nebra
ka'mado a powerful speech in the
senate, urging that the treaty bo rati
fied wltliout delay and without' amend
ment. ,
Referring to the recent speech of
Senator McCumber, republican, of
North Dakota, who voted against the
Shantung amendment Irf the foreign
relations committee. Senator Hitch
cock said: "He has showu that the
proposed amendment, Instead of help
ing China, deprives her of the benefit
of the promises and concessions the
CnOed States has exacted from Japan.
He has shown that Japan is already
In possession of the German rights,
privileges and leaseholds. Ie has also
shown that Great Britain and Kra.uce
re under pledge to Japan to stand by
her In her claim and he has challenged
the supporters of the proposed amend
ment to show how China can possibly
bo benefited unless when we reject
Japan's promises we propose to go to
war with her and drive her out of
Shantung for the benefit of China.
"I think the senator from North Da
kota conclusively demonstrated the
folly of the proposed amendment as
far as It concerns China and the dan
ger that it Involves to the United
States."
SENATOR HITCHCOCK
"Does anyone suppose that Japan
herself would submit to such a humil
iation before the eyes of the world!"
asked Hitchcock. "The answer Is sim
ple," he asserted. "We would find
ourselves out In the cold, isolated from
the rest of the, world.
"What, then, will the United States
doT What will those American states
men propose who stand for this meth
od of killing the treaty? Some of them
will say that Congress can pass a Joint
resolution declaring a state of peace
with Germany. Others say the United
States can negotiate a separate and
Independent treaty of peace with Ger
many. Those who talk tfila way evi-

Intrigue whlci terrorized the world
for age would be ended and Gej
many would be the only great nation
loft out of the leaxue, union we de
cide to stay out and come In later
with Germany.
The' president aaked the audience
not to think that he had oome' out
to flBht or antagonize anyone, and
said "I have the greatest respect
for the onate, 'but have come to fight
for a cause greater than the senate
and InttMid to fight that cause In of

URGES ACCEPTANCE
.' ;
, dently have no conception of the enor
mous benefits and advantages which
I the United States derives from this
; treaty. which we wrung from Germany
at the cannon a mouth. Neither have
j Ihey any conception of the difficulties
' Involved in negotiating a new treaty
' with Germany to establish the terms
'of pence and settle the controversies
' of the war.
Suicidal to Reject Treaty.
I "To my mind it would be suicidal
: for the United States to throw away
the advantages and benefits provided
In this treaty. It would be disastrous
commercially and financially. It would
put us at an enormous disadvantage
in International relations not only with
Germany out with Those nations which
we would thus desert. They would re
main bound together by ties of mutual
Interest.' They would enjoy the bene
fits of the treaty and would not be
slow to take every advantage of them.
They would resent our desertion. '
"Up to this point. I have dU-cmsed
the possible defeat of the treaty by
means of proposed amendments to it
That is the real program and hope of
the majority of the committee on for
eign relations. It Is for that purpose
that the treaty has been locked up In
cold storage for so many weeks. The
enemies of the League of Nations in
the senate are not many compared to
its friends, but they control the com
mittee. They have felt Justified In
retaining the treaty In the committee,
holding useless hearings and making
killing amendments with the full
knowledge that amendments would
beat the treaty just as effectively as
a refusal to ratify.
"A few, a very few, senators have
declared that ihey would vote against
the treaty because of the League of
Nations, but It has remained for the
senator from Pennsylvania, Mr. Knox,
to declare boldly against our partici
pation in the treaty settlement
Knox Amazes Country.

shocked the country.
