N TO ATTACK WILSON PROPOSA1 lution in Regard to Peac eague Scheme Introduced in Senate. ashington, Feb. 3.?Groun* for the expected attack in th ? on President Wilson's propos at the United States join i te for peace was laid today in i ution introduced by Senato h, reaffirming as a national pol he doctrine of no entangling al es laid down by Washingtoi Jefferson. dike the pending Cummins reso n, Senator Borah's proposa is no direct reference to the pre ;'s peace address but its adop would commit the senate n matters coming before it touch the intent or affairs of foreig. tries, to conform its acts t I) nfthc fPt Tl Pill r -A EVERY Dc nn dim 3 those time honored principles i i long and so happily a part of 01 own policies." o There was no debate on the res 11 lution but after its introductic P Democratic members of the foreif J relations committee, went into i * formal conference and made plai r to forestall discussion of the matt' on the floor before the committee h; 0 considered it. The Democrats i sisted that the president had propo ed no departure from national tr e ditions, and that there is nothing f the resolution to reflect on his u terances. Some leaders even pr r dieted that if the resolution came * a vote every Democrat would su * port it; but they declared discussi< f at this time would be futile ai needlessly would disrupt senate bu: ' ness. Both Seem Uncertain. J Senator Borah, in presenting tl * resolution, asked that it go over f a day but he did not reveal wheiii he would make an effort to call it i tomorrow. Senator Cummins al ^ declined to say whether he wou press at tomorrow's session hie res e lution setting aside next week f debate on the president's address. In a long preamble the Borah re olution quotes Washington's declar i tion in his farewell address that * e must be unwise in us to implica i- ourselves by artificial ties," in tl * affairs of the old world; a letter wri a ten by Jefferson declaring that "01 r first and fundamental maxim shou - be never to entangle ourselves in tl - broils of Europe," and Monroe's hi a toric message to congress, layii down the doctrine of America f Americans. The resolution th< .1 says: s "Whereas, the policies thus ear i- announced by Washington, Jeffers< a and Monroe and ever since adhen i- to by this country regardless of p< n itical parties, have contributed grei o ly to the peace and happiness of tl use II 'Way ^tds tkm tin**, frote ma the advance / the troops far akecu eg(f*T^*? ftee these thousan spring uf> from field a\ field?miles ufion miles men?see them charge un he screaming hail of their c . sneflp?SEE THIS HUMAN TIL f WAVE BREAK OVER THE ENE1 TRENCHES.
