A. of the congress at the extra session tooner or later will be to pass the Knox resolution declaring that a state of peace exists between the Uniled States and Germany. The French embassy, naturally per haps, is showing evidences of the keepest interest in the forthcoming foreign policy. Prior to this time the question of an addition to the Knox amendment has been discussed and it was said that there was & chance that the addition would be accepted by the framer of the resolution and by the senate of the United States. 1t seems today as if France desires with its whole heart that this addi- tion to the resolution shall be includ- ed in the administration’s program of action. It was said in writing on this mat- ter recently that “the hope of some of the senators is that the President will recommend the coupling up with the XKnox resolution of a paragraph which will give to France a new evidence of our friendship for that country. What Trance wants probably and what some of the senators want is that to the Knox resolution shall be added the statement that the United States will not look.unmoved on threatened or actual aggression on the part of any Furopean power against the peace of one of its neighbors. Would Please France. Of course this addition te the Knox resolution would cover the French case, and would give the French to un- derstand that if a rejuvenated and uggressive militaristic Germany ever should try to put into effect another plan of invasion, the United States would do something more than sym- pathize with the sister republic across the sea, In Washington there las been some him to demand state inspection of} produce shipped, or to require the as-! sistance of the state department of‘ agriculture in the adjustment of claims.
