AT SOCIAL IN WARSAW New Resident Will Hardly Try to Coerce Senate Majority and Knox's Resolution Only Needs a Majority, Not a Two Thirds Vote Harding's Own Plan to Be Dis closed in His Inaugural Address March 4 -- By MARK SULLIVAN (CoyrijfIit 1021, . Y. Pot, Inc.) WASHINGTON. Jan. 8. "If anybody : issuixies that Harding out ot&n he has - heard from his recently ended coitfer ence.wlth "best minds" Is going to "make distilled essence, so to speak, and that the distilled essence is going to be Harding's program with regard to the Logne of Nations, such an as sumption is very wide of the mar' I have talked .with many, perhaps . most, of the important persons who Wave discussed with Hardingr his plai for- an associaticn of nations as a va riation or substitute for the League ol Nations. On. the .basis of this infor mation, I think it Is safe to say that all that Harding has in mind is this. He is making a plan. ' tn. ' The plan will not into .dett 1 f, Harding doe' not intend that it shall , go into details. , It Is merely a set a. principles, so to' speak, and he intends to restrict it to that. This plan he will . disclose 'in his inaugural address o: ttti,s a wv nffflr March 4, he win in tlllfl - put certain machinery in motion. to what this machinery is. 5f"ar Harding has made no greater disclos ure of details than he has made of his ' jplan for the League of Nations I as sume that this machinery will cons.s of a commission 'tfe negotiate with the " - That Is all that HaTdinsr has in millM Let uVnow consider the forces at . work outside of Harding and to som. extent antagonistic to Harding. The first thing to remember is thai Harding can not make or can not put through any plan whatever affecting foreign relations except 'by and l tiIU the consent of the senate." So far as ' that is concerned. It would be, contrary to everything we know of Harding it he should try to eombat the P"? tive of the senate. It is very decidedlj to he believed that whatever plar Harding puts out will-first have been snown to the. senate and will have the assent of that body. He will attemp nothing until he is first satisfied it car be put through. The will of the senate Is the measure of what Harding car put through. The difference between Harding am' AVilson is that Wilson conceived a plan and then attempted to put that plan through against the senate s will. Wil That is Senator Knox's substitute for our entering the League of Na tions. The extent to which !it will be re ceived" as a satisfactory substitute de pends wholly upon.' how those who re ceive it already stand on the League Surprise Wedding of Miss Ad kins and Mt. Chestnutt 1 MS TTTS -nr TT TP TT TC TlD ' ' ff3 TrIREE WARSAW, Jan. ,8. Miss Lenora Womack gave an informal card party at her home Friday evening. Hhe rooms were attractively dedorated with Christmas greens. " The evening was spent in playing Iprbgressive." bridge after which a salad course was served. .A surprise marriageeocciirred Sunday evening, when Miss Nannie; Lee Adkins and James Chestnutt.

The bride .is the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs." Lee Adkins of thU place, and is a young, la-dy of j attractive appearance, sue graduated league, this will be very distasteful to I at the Warsaw high school . last Mayj them.

Mr. and ThiaKnox plan is not, of course, a ! Mrs. Chesfnutt left on the vning train league. It is not treaty; or anything else of the kind. - It id a mere public official declaration of policy. It is an action taken .by ourselves, without in volving nny agreement with any for eign nation. Senator Knox himself admits this. In arguing for it, he' says: "Avowed by public official declaration. It might prove ' worthy, I believe, to serve with the Monroe doctrine as a fundamental dootrine of American di plomacy. It entangles us in no way." Senator Knox further argues that this dictrine once adopted "would stand the background as a great moral force whose tendency should be to en courage nations to agree. Such a pol icy does not subject this nation's judg cities. . V .. The local chapter of the Junior or der held a banquet Tuesday veninff'in the lodge room a get-together, meet ing. Plans for future activities were discussed, and a pleasant evening was spent, at the close of which refresh ments were served. . - , Mr. and Mrs, Robert garden and little-son, Rob Jr., of Tarboro,' are visiting- Mr. and Mrs. J.'

Mr. and Mrs. Will Bryan and little terests or its war making prerogative to the will of a foreign council. ,"'It is a mere recognition of the fact that a menace to Europe by the domi nation of aggressive military powers in this century is a menace also to our safety." Harlii Pledge At this point arises an Interesting question. Does this proposal of Senator Knox, to which, I am satisfied, the Republi can senate will attempt to restrict Senator Harding's plan does -it fulfil the repeated "promise made In Senator Harding's campaign speeches that h,e would take steps to bring about "an association of nations," In the interests of permanent peace? If Senator Harding assents to this proposal from the senate, does not go any further than this proposal does can he then be regarded as having lived up to his campaign pledge? This point -evidently worried Senator Knox a little, for, In the course of his argument in favor of the proposal, he said: "The declaration of a policy such as indicated, followed by a similar dec- son tried to get the public back of him j laratlon by other nations, would con- ment and conscience as to its vital in- daughter of Folkstone, Mr and Mrs and. with that public backing tried to beat the senate down. Hardtng is not likely, to do any thin; like that. Certainly not In the early stages of his administration. Harding is much more likely to conciliate the senate, to find out how far the senate is willing to Ago, and then adopt that .as the maximum of his own plan. Senate Anti-League Let us then see what the new senate is likely to do. The new senate is overwhelmingly j Republican. What action it is to take about foreign affairs is- most likely tc be determined by the Republican ma jority The prevailing drift of that Republican majority 4s markedly anti league. The Republican majority in the new senate, in all probability, when the time comes will held a caucus on this subject. Indeed, I suspect that infor mal caucuses are already being held py stitute an association of nations bound together by a common, purpose that, as I have said on another occasion, neither parchment, sealing wax, signa tures nof blue ribbons could, make more obligatory or effective." Is Senator Knox sound in this con tention? Can this proposal of his be regarded as "an association"? I think that when the Democrats, and the oth er friends of the League of Nations be ein to attack Mr. Knox's nroDosal he I ill firirl liitinfiAlf vv TTkllTl rir tVia la fertsivo. The word "association" im plies) much more than the tenuous thing that Senator Knox propbses Whether Senator Harding will agree with Senator Knox that this proposal is a sufficient living up to his campaign pledges will be wholly for Senator Harding's conscience to determine. That constitutes all that is now af firmative and formal In the senate proposal, with regard to our foreign Jennings Williams and son of Durham, and Mrs. C. L. Holt, of Little Rock, Ark., formed a house party at the home of Miss Ella Williams last week. Miss Bessie Barden went to Raleigh Tuesday to enter Peace institute. Charles Carroll and Henry Newbury have returned to Trinity college; Wal ker Stevens to Chapel Hill; Misses Fan nie Monroe, Julia Ricks, to Peace insti tute, and Martha GreBham and Martha Best to St. Mary's college. F. J. Thomas returned the past week from a bualness trip to Richmond, Va. Mrs. Fflson Peirce spent Tuesday In Clinton.

But certain other things are likely to be dominant on this subject. I suspect, but can state it no more i ptrongly than as a suspicion, that th .plan which Senator Knox announcet1 . last week as an, alternative, to our en . .tering the League of Nations was the result of just such an informal caucu : of a "roup. It is fair to Senator Knox .' to say that he rather evaded admitting this. But Senator Knox certainly did not stand alone in such-a sensational step as he took. Most of the. old irreconcil ' ables must have been back of him. And the ii reconcilables in the new senate . will be more numerous than in the last. .That is incontestable. In the first place, most of the new .Republican senators are irreconcilable in their leanings. I know this is so 4 because I have been at pains to talk -with some of them and correspond with j. nearly all of them. The bulk of thei say they are opposed to the league, an. practically all of them say they will be Kuideil by at attitude of the Republica, inajority or by the Republican caucus Moreover, many of the hold-ove senators who last winter were for the league with reservations have now ' . moved closer to the irreconcilable po sition. Conspicuous among these is McCumber of North Dakota. Last win ' tcr he was the lone Republican who was will.n- to vote for, the league wit hrtnf mm . . . " v .w..wU. v reaervainms.

Fur thermore, several Democratic senafors notably Shields of Tennessee? nave m2 In the new scnate mucl more likely to be dominated by the irreconcIlaWes than by those who ar friends of the league in any ZgrJ Senator Knx Plan Since Senator Knox, is one of th three acknowledged leaders of the rre concilablo senators, let us Zll ...he.:formay id before vL-vTi r ,ivnox s Pian leaves the league wuiiBiuerauon. His nro gram 'is as follows: ' P c First. Immediately after March 4 ' f.?tntnt0!r K"?X Wl" lntrodce his.reso . lution for a separate peace with Ger V many.

Knox resolution could pass the pres ;ent senate. It would the more readily - pass the. new senate. There can be no question about that. ? n. The passing of the Knox resolution will end the state of -war with Ger many and clean up everything con nected with that,. It will prepare the ground for the. next step. The next , step is really Senator Knox's equiva lent ror our entrance Into the League of Nations. ' , Tie proposed, either vas a part of the , resolution, to 'introduce the following: "It is the declared . policy of the '. United States in order to met fully v and fairly , our obligations to ourselves v and to th w6rld, that the' freedom and peace of Europe being again threaten- ed I V- would -view such a situation with grave Concern as a menace to Its own . peace an freedom: will consult with ' other powers affected with a view to devising weans for the removal qf such menace. nd wjll. tha nicoaityarbinir - in the future, co-operate with r the friends X civilisation for Its defense." contemplated for the future. They are, howeverfl contemplated separately What these other things are can be discovered from another paragraph In the argument Which Senator Knoxj made to Senator Harding. It reads: "Such a declaration of policy, would Hot interfere with the codification of international law, the creation of a curt to decide International differ ences of. a justiciable character, the appointment of commissions to inves tigate political questions that threaten war for the purpose of enlightening the public opinion of the world upon the merits of the question involved, or any other measures, including disarm ament, that might.be agreed upon by the nations to lessen the probability of war." It is apparent, therefore, that the senate proposes that there shall go forward, subsequent to the passage of the Knox resolution and separate from it and from each other, certain nego tiations leading to these things which Senator Knox says his resolution does not interfere with: namely, an agree ment for disarmament, an agreement to codify International law, an agree ment, creating .u .International court, and an agreement 'for commissions to investigate questions threatening war. These latter things, apparently. It Is intended to take ui) slowly and grad ually, probably lover a series of years. What Will the League Dor At this oint arises the question: What will the league do about it? Will the league' insist On going on and functioning even with us out? And will the league or Individual members of the league be willing to negotiate with us separate understandings about disarmament and an . international court? And if individual members of the league are willing to negotiate with us separately, will 'they be tre4 to do so? would that be consistent with their present membership in the existing league? How all this wijr turn out only the future can show.' What I am satisfied of is that the Knox plan here set Out will be substantially the program of the Republican majority in the new senate; and that It will be impossible, in the nature of. things, for Harding's "plan," as he finally reveals it, In his inaugural address, to depart materially irom tne JK.nox pan. If the Harding "plan" should denart from the Knox plan, and if Harding snouid maw an issue with Knox and his senatorial followers, Harding will lose and Knox will win. Knox 'will win because of an astute bit of strategy that gives him & mathematical advant age. Knox has., put his plan in the shape of a .resolution, I think he must have dona so consciously, having thl strategy in mind. !. A resolution can be passed by a majority of the senate. Harding's plan, if it goes farther than Knox's and involves agreements 'with foreign nations, can only be passed bv I two-thirds of the, senate.: Parlalan Sajre Siiryrlsea and Dllgfct-. it positively xa sot c&ange tbe Xatnral Clor of the Hair.
