MORE DEMOCRATS DRY LAW DEFIED BY
FOR RESERVATIONS MICHIGAN COUNTY
Peace Treaty Reservations Iron
Carried By More Than
Two-Thirds Vote,
Wasbington.--The first of the reser.
rations attached to the peace treaty
last November was readopted unchaflg
ed and by an increased majority in the
senate after the treaty's irreconcilable
opponents, holding the balance of I
power, bad balked the efforts of repub. [
lican and democratic leaders to obtain I
modification in the interest of com-[
promise.
The outcome, although involving the
defection of four more democratic sen-
ators from the ranks of those who have
stood against all reservations, gener-
ally was accepted by all elements in
the senate as tightening the treaty
deadlock and bringing the question of
ratification one step nearer the politi-
cal campaign.
The reservation on which the senate
acted relates to withdrawal from mere-
in the league. The vote on its i
i
bershlp
I
adoption was 45 to 20, 10 democrats]
joining the solid republican lineup sup- !
porting it. Four of theseSenators I
Ashurst (Arizona), Fletcher (Florida),
Henderson (Nevada) and Nugent (Ida-
ho)--have stood on all previous roll-
calls steadfastly against b.ny qualifica-
tion of the treaty.
It was by a bare maJoffty, 33 to 32,
that the senate rejected the change in
the reservation framed by republican
leaders and submitted by Senator
Lodge as part of his compromise plan.
In addition to the four democrats
who swung over to reservations for the
first time, the members of the minor-
lty party voting to adopt the with-
drawal qualification were Senators
Chamberlain, Oregon; Gore, Oklaho-
ma; Myers, Montana; Shields, Tennes-
see; Smith, Georgia, and Trammell,
Florida. The result, 45 to 20, showed
two-thirds of the senators present vot-
ing together for the first time since
the treaty fight began.

MORE CREDIT WANTED '
Loans Would Be Made by Farmers
on PePIonsl Security.
Washington.--A system of co-opera-
tive farm credit, bed on personal
security as distinguished from mort-
gage loans, was proposed in a bill ip-
troduced by Representative McFadden,
republican, Pennsylvania. Loans on
persot:al security would be obtained by
farmers from "community" banking as-
ociations having stock subsclribed by
[arm members. Thee would be ,a
:entral bank with $25,000,000 capital
loaned by the government and also
state branches.

personal security, Representative Mc-
Fadden Stated, and federal land and
private bank facilities do not com-
pletely meet requirements.
