Show CONGRESS TAKES VACATION. Peace Treaty Will be Taken Up When . Lawmake-'s Reassemble January 5. Washington. Congress closed down Saturday night, December 20, until January 5 for its holiday vacation, with the usual travail of adjournment congestion.

Closing hours of the senate were enlivened en-livened by two moves toward a compromise com-promise on the treaty, but the question of ratification went over. |
