BRYAN MAKES PUBLIC VERSAILLES TREATY PLANK San Franeisco, June 28.—Ratification of the treaty of Versailles with such res- ervations as A Senate majority approves is proposed in the plank of William J. Bryan deul'y with the . treaty and league. of na..ons. The Nebraskan tonight made public his plank which is to go before the resolu- ons committee. It follows: “The democratic party demands an amendment to the federal constitution providing for ratification of treaties by a majority vote so thut it will be as easy to end awar as it is to declare war. Plantifig ourselves upon the most funda- mental principles of popular government, namely, the right of the people to rule— a doctrine in support ef which we have recently spent over twenty-five billions of dollars and for. which we Have sacrificed 100,000 precious lives—we favor an im- mediate reconvening of the senate that this principle may be applied to treaty controvers¥ and ratification secured with such reservations as a majority of the senators may agree upon, reserving for the future the 1naking of such changes as. we may deem necessary. “We favor appointment by the presi- dent, with consent of the senate, of dele- gates to represent this nmation in the league until regularly chosen delegates Are elected and qualiedfi. We favor the selection of the nation's delegates in the league of nations by popular vote in districts, in order that the people may speak through representatives of their own choice in the august tribunal which will consider the welfare of the world. “These delegates siould be instructe not to vote for war without specific in- siructions from congress or irom the people, given by referendum vote. “Our nation's delegates shouid also be instructed to insist upon the disarmament of the world in order that the burden of militarism may be lifted from the shoulders of those who toil and the foundation of an enduring peace laid in friendship and co-operation.” The plank follows Mr. Brysn's demands for majority rule and was regarded as fundamentally opposed to the administra- tion’s desire for a declaration for ratifica- tion without destructive reservations. ONG GREETING WIRED TO PRESIDENT WILSON San Franelsco, Calif., June 28 —The democratic natlonal convention toda: motion of Governor Gardnmer of Missou- ri, directed Chairman Cummings to send to President Wilson the following mes- sage of their appreciation and greeting. which was adopted by unanimous vote of the convention: N . “In recognition of the fact that the mantle of Jackson and Jefferson has fallen on your shoulders as the unques- tioned Jeader of our party, the hosts of democracy in national convention assem- bled, have directed me to send you the following resolution At appreciation and greeting: ‘The democratic party. assembled in national convention, extends to the pres- ident of the United States its admiring and respectful greetings. “For seven of the most fateful vears in the history of our country Woodrow Wilson has oceupied by his character, learning and power, has adorned the highest offices of the gift of his country- me: He has Initlated and - secured the adoption of great progressive measures of immeasurable value and benefit to the mle of the Un'tad Statcs. “‘As the commander-in-chief of (he army and navy of the Un‘tcd States he has led the patriotic forces of his country | thrdugh the most momentous struggle r plished under your administration. ~ CABLED PARAGRAPHS Lesgue of Nations, Geneva, Switzerland, June - 28.—The first official meeting of the league of ms will be held here next November, ing to information received to- from ithe principal _allied capitals. questions involving the far and near ‘easts which will be discussed by the Spa conference will be definifely decided here by the full representation of the league.
