Senator New Declares Four Power Pact Is Not An Alliance, But A Safeguard To United States Fordney An- nounces That Soldier Bonus Bill Will Be For- mally Reported to Con- gress Tomorrow. Chairman March §—Thers & Big alliance in the four power Pacific treaties nor any obligation to use force, Senator New of Indiana, repub- lican member of the foreign relations committee, declared today in opening the senate d ion of the treaties on behalf of the administration. Replying to criticism of the treaties, Senator New a close friend of Presi- dent Harding declarel that the four power treaties gave safeguards fol peace to the United States and did not impair American sovereignty. He made a detailed comparison of the treaties with the l.eague of Nations and serted that the treaties were co-operative while the league, he said, was drastic and compulsory .and re- quired submission of all questions to a council. Washington, Renefits U, S, “Instead of threafening, injuring or impairing our liberties, free institu- tions, independence and sovereignty, this treaty, (the four power measure) adds to the security of all of them' he continued. President Questioned, A resolution asking President Hard- what effect ratification of the fouh power Pacific treaty will have on the icelebrated Lansing-Ishii agreement between the United States and Japan was adopted today by the senate. Borah Presents It. The resolution was presented by Senator Dorah, republican, Idaho, one of the treaty opponents and . was agreed to without a roll call, after a short dehate in which Senator Un- derwood of Alabama, the democratic leader and a member of the Ameri- can arms delegation said that in his opinion the “agreement” would be wiped out entirely by the series of conference treaties. Senator Borah offered his proposal after the administration fight for rati- fication on the four power pact had bheen opened by Senator New in a prepared address declaring that the treaty contained no alliance but was a long step forward in international amity and understanding. y No Debate Follows.
