Senator Frelinghuysen has given to the Press the folowing statement regard ing the outcome of the contest in the Senate over the Treaty of Peace. The Treaty with Germany as originally presented was obnoxious from the American standpoint. ‘The League of Nations as presented was unworkable and League of Nations, believing that, with theseereservations, my: country was fairly well protected. T did this because I felt that peace sould | be . immediately . established and that the League of Nations, with the Lodge reservations, might be tried ms ,an experiment. | Although fundamentally wrong, it might, thru future remmmesizenmem on memmmmece

amendmenta, have formed the frame work of an international agreement, made workable thru better and wiser statesmanship. I am glad, however, at the fingl outcome, . Under the Treaty even with the reservations, the American Congreas would hye had todecidequestions involving us in European . troubles, that should never be brought to us for consideration, . We can now write an American Treaty with Germany, devoid of entangling alliunces and at the rame time be free to assist in extrivating Europe from the chaotic state she is now in, with none of the obligations. which illeonceived. generosity sought to enforce upon us, The defeat of the Treaty is due solely to the or of the President to hix Democratic friends in the Senate e een if — possible. and failing in that direction to kill the Treaty itself, which they proceeded to do. I cannot eonceive of a more dictatorial act than the | President‘s attempt to throttle theSenate of the United States, whose mem» bers are the representatives of the Europe. --m»ee-._._-__ ‘AN ORDINANCE An Ordinance to amend an ordinance entitled "An Ordinance providing for the license of autorfobiles and
