dictior
of the League
of Nation
all
ques-
tions
affecting
honour
or
its
vital
in-

of
the
United

was
de-
feated
today
in

last
on

list,
was
rejected
by

Committee
vote
of

and
the old reservation
republicans

to
36.
Cn the
eve of the final
voteon

Treaty,
President
Wilson
gave
the
Sen-
ate
to understand
gtoday. that

for
the
Reservations
disposed
to listen,

the
life
of the
Treaty
seemed
to hang

thread.
