KELLOGG PACT HAS MAJORITY Issue Appears To Be Whether Oppositon Can Delay Action Washington, Dee. 11.—(U.R>—Private senate polls indicating a safe majority for the Kellogg anti-war treaty caused a change of front by the opposition as the foreign relations committee met today to reexamine Secretary of State Kellogg concerning detail* of the war disavowal now signed by 59 nations. The issue appeared to be whether the oppoßitlon can delay action until their forces, challenging the treaty, can be strengthened, or whether Chairman Borah can force its ratification unmodified before Christmas. The United Press was informed reliably a minority report will be offered by Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, suggesting a reservation affirming tlie Monroe Doctrine, but a two-thirds majority of the commit--1 tee and of the senate is lined up in favor of ratification without reserva- • tions. The Brookhart committee which • has been investigating political patronage in the south was culled for i its first meeting of the session to re- ■ eeive some affidavits of alleged irregI u'.arities furnished l»y some southern postmasters in South Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia. The Couzens committee was called i [to werk out a plan for collection of 'Unemployment statistics so legislation may be devised later to aid eni ’ ployment. A report hardly can be 1 expected before the new congress 1 comes in. but President-elect Hoover ’ is strongly in favor of the move and ' tome definite legislation now is an ’ ticipated. 1 Tlie senate still was plodding along with no Boulder Dam agreement in > sight, while the house worked on Hie 1 $25,000,000 Austrian debt settlement.
