Lodge Back in Capital Today
Washington June 20 With the return of Senator Lodge tomorrow a conference will be held by the Republican leaders of the Senate to determine whether or not an attempt will be made to force a test vote on the Knox resolution which proposes to separate the League of Nations from the peace treaty. In the opinion of Senator Hitchcock minority leader of the committee on foreign relations the Knox resolution will die a natural death. He stated today that the Republican Senators had a corpse on their hands and they were trying to bury it without attracting too much attention. It is exceedingly doubtful if the opponents of the league have enough votes to adopt the Knox amendment and the longer action is postponed the easier it will be for the Democrats to filibuster until the peace treaty is received by the Senate.
