Senate rejects Wilson bid for reparations post
Washington July 23 The senate foreign relations committee emphatically refused President Wilson's request to approve provisional appointment of an American representative on the international reparations commission without ratification of the peace treaty. The panel adopted a resolution saying no power exists to execute treaty provisions ahead of ratification. The move signals likely no appointment for now as White House talks with Republicans continue.
