LEAGUE OF NATIONS
THE TREATY IN THE SENATE. New York, February 14. The Washington correspondent of the "New York Times" states that Senator Hitchcock nnd other Democratic Senators have expressed the belief that the reservation on Article X would prove a 6tumbling-block in the way of ratification of the Treaty. Senator Hitchcock said that neither the original Lodge reservation nor the substitute would bo acceptable. He preferred the original Lodge reservation to the substitute, but he could not vote for cither of them. Senator Hitchcock said that the situation was now in the control of the Republicans, and if they were unwilling to modify the reservation to tho satisfaction of President Wilson's followers then thev must accept full responsibility if the Trcntv fails to be ratified.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. NORWAY TO JOIN LEAGUE. Christiania, February 15. The Government proposes that Norway should ioin the League of Nations as a nrimarr member, without waiting for America's ratification.—"The Times."
