Van ‘Winkle, in charge of the Women's Bu- reau, and Assistant Engineer Commis- sioners Layson E. Atkins and Donald A. Davison. Maj. Atkins was called upon only to answer questions as to whether the appropriation for housing the de- tention home would be available for the new site. For about an hour the board had only Maj. Davison, chairman of the selection committee, present at its celiberations. Then Inspector Pratt ‘When is a reservation not a reserva- tion? This is the question which mem- bers of the Senate and the Department of State are wrestling with at present in connection with the pending anti- | war treaty. VUpon the answer to it depends the breaking down of the opposition from a small group of Senators who feel that some qualifications should be made to American ratification. The first plan, namely, that the Senate foreign rela- tions committee, should make a report interpreting the treaty, and that this report should be forwarded to the other powers, along with the ratification, has ot met with the ap‘;;oval of Secretary Kellegg. It would amount to a reser- vation to the treatey itself, and he thinks America should ratify the pact without qualification. Anxious to Define Rights. So far as the Senate is concerned, it is anxious nevertheless to place on record the interpretation of American rights, so that there can be no doubt about the position of the United States in any contingency. Great Britain made her reservations in the form of a | $100,000, personal property of known diplomatic note to the United States | value of $190,000 and real estate notes which is a part of the correspondence | on Florida property of the face value of Burchell’s lifiihous Bouquet Coffee 4(Qc Lb.

The trustees also are to pay $3,000 annually to Mrs. McLaughlin for like and at her death to convert residue into cash and pay it over to Dartmouth College. ‘The estate includes realty in excess of Gas Logs which preceded the actual signing of the treaty. ‘Various Senators feel that since Great Britain defines her sphere of interest and indicated that an attack on those interests would be regarded as justify- ing defensive war, so the United States should construe an attack on the Mon- roe Doctrine as releasing America from the obligations of the anti-war treaty. There is some discussion of a docu- ment which would interpret the treaty, namely, a letter from the Senate foreign relations committee to the Secretary of State, or vice versa, which would be made public simultaneously with the ratification of the treaty, but which would be no more a part of the treaty itself than the British diplomatic notes. Opposition Small. ‘The whole value of the interpretation is that the world should accept the American viewpoint in the event that defensive war becomes necessary, and that the accusatfStr-of treaty violation should not be made. Mr. Kellogg has held that, no matter what the diplo- matic correspondence might say, moral forces of the world would look askance at the beginning of any war after it had been denounced as “an instrument of national policy.” The opposition to the treaty is not very considerable, but the question of how to give the effect of reservations $200,000. and Lieut. Van Winkle were admitted.
