Extended Debate Ahead as Peace Resolution Moves to Senate
Democrats and Republicans prepare for a lengthy Senate fight over the Republican resolution to conclude peace with Germany without ratifying the Versailles treaty. The House passed 242 to 150 and sent the measure to the Foreign Relations Committee, with Massachusetts Republican Ludge eyeing a Wednesday committee move. Support for the resolution is expected to be solid in the Senate, while Democrats vow firm opposition. President may return the treaty during debate, and leadership aims to clear pressing business before June convention plans.
