lution will make peace which can omy
be done through a treaty negotiated
by the Executive and ratified by the
Senate.
Both tho Knox and Porter roi
tions are regarded as mereiy arrows
shot into the air to divert the atten
tion of the public from the fact that
despite the passage of either or a
substitute resolution, this, country is
exactly in the same position with re
spect to peace it was the day follow
ing the armistice.
Some of the Democrats who voted
for the Porter . resolution explained
their vote by saying that the resolu
tion was only a political move, that it
meant little even if passed, and that
a vote either way made little or no
K' difference.
The difference, however, they said,
lay in their unwillingness to take the
time to explain to their constituents
why they had voted against a meas
ure which was supposed to trmg
"peace" to the land.
"Whe Speaks For Administration?"
In his speech opposing the Porter
peace resolution, Mr. Barkley XDem.
Ky.) after calling attention' to the
conflict of opinion among the Repub
lican leaders said:
"Who speaks for this administra
tion! It it President Harding! is It

Representative Burton. IfenuhllAan

advocated prompt ratification of the
treaty of Versailles with reservation.
