Open Discussion of Peace Treaty Called By Resolution
Senator Borah introduces a Senate resolution demanding open public discussion of the peace treaty before ratification. He cites President Wilson and urges open covenants openly arrived at to end secret diplomacy and keep the public informed during negotiations and in the final treaty. The measure goes to the Foreign Relations Committee. Railroads Will Not Be Turned Back Immediately. President Wilson will delay returning railroads to private control while Congress crafts new policy. Senator Smith of South Carolina says a reasonable waiting period is planned after a conference with the President.
