THE CENTRAL POWERS
UNITED STATES PEACE TREATIES RATIFICATION DUE TO DEMOCRATIC SUPPORT By Telegraph—Press Ae«ocla.tion— Copyright New York, October 19. Ths "New York Times” correspondent at Washington says that the ratification of the Treaties with the Central Powers was due to the Democratic support, without which the Republicans would not have been able to secure a two-thirds majority. Fourteen Democrats, including the leader (Senator Underwood), voted in favour. The Wilson followers and others who favour the Versailles Treaty and tho l eague fought a losing battle to the cud. An amendment by Senator King, substituting the Versailles Treaty and the League with the Lodge reservations, was tabled. Senator Heed sought to amend the Treaty by eliminating all reference to the Versailles pact. All the amendments failed. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
