By a vole of 9 to 8, the ruiniiiittee decided to amend the treaty to provide fur tlie restoration nf Shantung to t'hiiiu. The cliunge made wus extremely simple; It merely strikes out the word "Japan and substitutes tlie word China in the section which dispose of Geniiuny's I former rights iu tlie Shantung peninsula. Senator Mct'uuilier, North Dakota, Republican, voted witli the Democrats against tlie Shantung amendment. Otherwise, tlie vote was of a strict party nature. Action Presages Further Delay. Tlie effect nf tlie commit tes action, if sustained by the Semite, will lie to send tlie pence treaty buck to the other prlueipul allied lowers. As according to Prshlent Wilson, refused to sign tlie treaty unless given Shantung, nnd as France, Grent Until In mid Italy are hound by their secret treaties to support tlie Japanese rliilmn to Shantung, It Is eonsidered extremely probable thut tlie amendment, if sustained In tlie senute, would rreute a deadlock among the towers.

The president announced also that it wus neither wise nor feasible at this time, when the most important question before the country is a return to normal price level, to attempt to Increase freight rates to provide funds for higher wages. We ought to postiKUie questions of this sort until we have the opportunity for certain calculation as to the relations between wages and the cost of living, the president declared In a statement to the public explaining his decision as to wages.

The decision of the president and the director general was announced to a committee of 100, representing the shopmen. In reply to tlielr demands for a 25 per cent Increase, the shopmen were asked to accept an adjustment of their pay to the basis of ten hours' pay for eight hours' work, which they contended was given to other employees and deind them when the Adamson law became effective. This means an advance of the basic pay from G8 cents to 72 cents an hour, whereas an Increase of 17 cents to 85 cents an hour was demanded. GREEN clamation, nor could lie consent in any circumstances to take such a course prior to tlie ratification of a formal tnuity of peace by Ihe senate. The president so wrote Senator Fall on Adjust 21, In answer to one of the twenty written questions tlie senatui preseiifijHl at the White House conference. Replying to another question, the president said tlie provision of tlie ireaty thut Tjt should come into force after ratification by Germany and three of the principal associated powers oie rated merely to establish ponce lietween those ratifying powers, and that It was questionable whether It an be said that the league of nations is In any true sense created by the association of only three of the v allied und associated governments." As to the qnestiqd of when normal tthidftioiinnight btf restored, tllfe president said lie could only express the confident opinion that Immediate ratification of the treaty and acceptance of the covenant of the league as written would certainly within the near future reduce tlie cost of living, both in this country and abroad, through restoration of production und commerce to normal. To Senator Falls questions relating to the dlsiKNdtlon of Germany's possessions, tlie president suid the arrangement in tlie treaty conveyed no title to the allied or associated powers, but merely Intrusts disposition of the territory in question to their decision."
