You have repudiated all of bis doctrines." "I sav the time has come for an . investigation." said Senator Hitch cock, resuming, "I want to know what interests the Massachusetts sen ator has been talking to and how those interests got into possession of . the treaty. - - ..; Senator Lodge said the senate was onlv asking for a public document and that he would be "delighted" to have, the Hitchcock resolution, n&ss- od..: Ho added he hud endeavored to have the auditing committee expedite its consideration but had found that the Nebraska senator in his "hurried haste" hnd not the resolution refer red to the committee, but allowed it to romuin in the senate after being introduced yesterday.

Yanderlip. former president of the National City Bank of New York, told the Pan-American conference here today that : trading between South America and Europe could not be resumed as formerly for some time to come as the situation overseas 'is more serious than has been grasped on this continent or even bv a largo proportion of the Europeans them selves." ' "Europe." said Mr. Aranderlip. "has received such a shock as cannot be measured bv those who have not seen it at close range. Men all over the country are idle. The disorders are result of wnnt, idleness nnd revo lution and -cannot be confined to nnv one locality. Do not think that I am redicting a colflngrution in Europe, but I believe that continent now balanced upon a knife edge and that the future alone can tell whether there will bo a conflacration or not. Aid can and must lie given. The help must be to restock the indus tries. Men are being supported bv the millions in Europe bv unemployed gold, as they are earning no wages. A catastrophe may come out of the situation which will effect us all. If the catastrophe is averted, as I believe it will be. the position of those countries of this hemisphere which re rich in resources and unharmed bv war. is of supreme importance." Charles M. Schwab, president of the Bethlehem Steel corporation, told the conference he had such confi dence in South America that he was budding in Chile. 20 of the largest cargo boats ever constructed to car ry ore from the west to the east coast for conversion into steel. We must depend upon Lutin- America for our raw materials." said he. 208 Trim Rmnll f.ilin nannc in Fmrliuli inlflfifin rn nfliB KlniriilliFaa tn- talled 415 pages, he said.

"I was told bv another gentlemen," Mr. Loldge said, "who is not connect ed with business or financial inter ests. Hint he hud a copv he would al low me to examine. I refused, be cause I felt it would be mv dutv to make public any copv that should come into mv bunds. Tins gentleman told me he knew of four other copies in New York; I' saw nobody repre senting any financial interest in New York. I was not within two or three miles of Wall Street.5 Senator Lodge said that the stale department. In commenting on his BERLIN. June 4. (Bv the Asso ciated Press.) A proclamation bv General Slant-in, commander of the trench armv of occupation at Mav ence. forbidding strikes against the Rhenish republic and threatening leaders of any sueh movements with expulsion, is published in the Frank fort Gazette, HMK ' MANNHEIM. June 4. (Bv the As sociated Press.) When the project of the Rhenish republic was first broached. Marshal Foch. commander- in-chief of the allied armies, was an pronched through occupation officers and asked whether the Rhinelnnders could work for a republic without the risk of being disciplined bv Germany, according to the Noue Buden Landes- zeitung. The newspaper states that Marshal Foch and Premier Clcmen ccnu of France, conferred on the subject and sent a replv to the Khinc lunders Unit "the German government would never again have anything to do with the left bank of the Rhine and hence the propagandists could qot be punished." MISTREATED BY IE charges, explained that he probably saw copies ot financial sections of the treaty which were in the hands of New York financial interests. "That statement has not been con tradicted," said Mr. Lodge. "If you want an investigation ! suggest that you Investigate your own state de partment." "How these copies came to this Country." said Senator Lodge, ''I do not pretend to say. They must have come from Paris. Tt5ey must have been given out by some one In au thority there. "That Is all I could tell any com mittee. To say more would ' be a gross breach of faith." Polk Made Statement When Mr. Lodge sald'the state de partment had admitted that financial sections were In the hands of New York Interests, Senator 'MJtchcoak, interrupted to ask: "Wha . made that statement?" . "Mr. Frank Polk, (the acting sec retary) made it," replied Senator Lodge.
