Opponents of Measure Jubilant; Give Notice of Purpose to Move to End All Debate . WASHINGTON, March 6. The move to bring President Wilson actively Into the peace treaty compromise negotiations got such a setback at the White House today that the irreconcilable senate opponents of ratification again pronounced the treaty dead and gave notice that they would move Monday to bring the debate speedily to an end. Officials close to the president declared that Democratic senators already fully advised of the attitude of the executive and that compromise proposals ihould be addreised', not to Mr. Wilson, but to Senator Lodge, the Republican leader. It was not revealed whether the president would grant the requested conference with Senator Simmons 'of North Carolina, representing the eenate Democrats in a final effort at compromise, but the White House officials intimated that they thought further efforts to inquire to the presidents views would be super- Antisaloon ' League Urges Purchase by the Federal Government WWtOTWW-W- House Hours i NEW Secretary Daniels to Recom mend Huge Building Pro Entire Consumes Four Fails. if gram Treaty in Discussion of Divergent Reports Made by.

March 6 Ths nation's accomplishments and shortcomings in aviation during the war were debated In ths bouse today for four hours, discussion centering around the divergent reports arising from tbs long Investigation of tha special house committee on aviation. Magee of New York, Representatives one of the two Republican members of the committee, opened the debate with the declaration that the Liberty motor was the only achievement of merit of the American air service In tha United States." Representative Lea of California, tha Democratic member of the committee, said the criticisms of the .Republic! members were absurd contentions and groundless conclusions, and that the rea son the nation faded to accomplish more In aviation plainly was inexperience and lack of preparation. A clash between Chairmen Freer and Representative , Garrett, Democrat, Tennessee. a minority member of tha com mlttee, was narrowly averted several min utea after the chairman began to speak. . League or No League, He Favors an Establishment That Will Compel Respect WASHINGTON. March I. Secretary Daniels told tha house naval committee today that ha would recommend a naval building program for the next fiscal year larger than that proposed by the general board If the peace treaty Is not ratified at this session of congress." Withhold ing final recommendation, however, the secretary added that if this country In the end rejected membership In the league of nations, he would feel Impelled to renew his recommendation for another three-yeprogram of construction. Reiterating his statement of .last year that we must have a league of nations by which every nation will help preserve tbs peace of the world without competitive naval building, or we roust have incomparably the biggest navy In the world," Mr. Daniels declared there was no middle ground. The program which the secretary recommended be authorised in the event the treaty le not ratified agreed with the general board's proposal ss to capital ships two battleships snd one battle cruiser but added to that proposal twenty light cruisers and fourteen flotilla No light leaders, or superdestroyers. cruisers and only six auperdestroyers were recommended by the board.
