MARKING TIME
U.S.A. AND GERMANY
HOSTILITY TO LEAGUE BECOMING MORE GENERAL.
REPUBLICAN’S ATTITUDE. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received March 10, 9.55 p.m.) NEW YORK, March 9. The “New York Times” Washington correspondent says that while Senator Ivnox and President Harding and the entire Senate are marking time on questions of peace with Germany and tho Association of Nations, due to a desire not to embarrass the Allies in their present undertakings in Germany, a noticeable change has come over Republican Senators with respect to tho league of Nations issue. There is distinct evidence of more general hostility toward the League principle.. Senator Lodge seems to have graduated from a' reservationist to an irreconcilable, and those hitherto classed as mild reservationists fire now showing signs of willingness to throw over tire League standard completely.
There is discernible the traditional attitude of “go-slow”’ reasserting itself among the Republicans. Quick peace and; quick action in relation to the Association of Nations, promised during the campaign, seem to have been forgotten.
