differ, however, as to the kind of a league of nations we may deaire, or w may wish to see the American people committed to." Senator Hitchcock denounced the Knox resolution as ''but another move on the part of certain Republican senator to harrass and embarrass and annoy the president while he was stil! engaged with the peace conference." A test of pro-league and anti-league strength was anticipated when the resolution was finally voted on. There was no disposition displayed today by either Senator Lodge or Senator Knox or anti-administration senators on the foreign relations committee to have the latter renew its investigation of alleged "treaty leaks." It was stated that Jacob H. Schilf. of Kuhn. Locb & Co., Paul M. Warburg and other American financiers had been notified that they would be informed when the committee desired them to appear. It was predicted, however, by a number of senators, both Republic and Democratic, that the committee's probe would not be resumed. Senator Borah expressed himself as being satisfied with what he declared to have been "clearly established" at yesterdays session of the committee that a copy of the peace treaty had been furnished" Morgan & Co.. one of whose partners had been shown to be acting in an advisory capacity at the peace conference, while the senate and the American people were still denied access to the text of the document. He. Senator Reed, of Missouri, and other anti-league senators hinted at a future debate in the senate that would "further bring to the attention of the American people the close connection of Wall street with the reace conference and the reasons why "nig business" waa supporting the league or nations."
