In a statement late today Senator j Hitchcock predicted that, with re- j submission of the treaty by the presi- I rlont s? rnmnromise could be effect- ' ed between senators favoring rati- j fication in some form. "Concessions; on both sides must be real and not, merely nominal," he said. If resubmitted, the treaty would j come before the senate practically as new business and debate on it would not be governed by the cloture rule invoked in the closing days at the session just Adjourned.

Should the< president fail to re-j submit the pact promptly wnen con- j !*ress reassembles, it was believed j the republican leaders would with-J out delay take up Senator Lodge's resolution, introduced last night after the treaty had failed of ratifi- j cation, proposing that congress de- j clare concurrence by the house.

Thevnew congress will meet on December 1, but not even the most ardent supporters of the treaty believe it would be possible to take it up again at the outset of the next session. The Christmas recess was expected to intervene before much could be accomplished, with the result that a clear field for treaty consideration would not be opened before January at the earliest. Once the other great powers have gone ahead with their establishment of full trade and diplomatic relations with Germany officials say new arrangements will have to be made ] by the United States to fit into the commercial scheme thus created, whatever trade the United States has with the central powers. , At present the war arrangement by which Spain is taking care of American interests in Germany continues in force, and that is not ex- i pect?d to be disturbed. The ration-1 ing of supplies of various 'sorts to , Germany must begin under the treaty | terms, however, and the powerful reparations cpmmission will be set up to determine \all the details of Germany's commercial intercourse with other nations. ?r P \T i TO U.

On this commission the United States will have no representation, though it is hoped to work out a plan by which this country can keep in close touch with the body's work in order to protect American interests. The administration officials were not prepared today-to predict just what form this unofficial connection would take nor to outline j just what could be accomplished by such a connection. j The state department is emphatic in its stand that no American consuls can be sent into Germany until! * ^ ? i _ i.7^ peace has been aenniteiy esutunsn * between the United States and that! country and they declare only an im- j perfect trade relation can be built j up without the consular officers in j charge of the legal end of inter- i national trade.

I As a matter of fact, the lack of | American consular representation is declared by the administration officials to be the greatest present handicap to resumption of trade. With the president's authorization of blanket licenses under the ! trading with the enemy act last j July, commercial intercourse with I Germany practically was freed from j ' legal restrictions and it continues in | that situation. 4 There are some pro| hibited articles, such as drugs, I chemicals and dyestuffs, but the bars I are down to most of the ordinary j articles ,of commerce. j The senate's failure to act left on I the hands of the administration a 1 big collection of knotty problems, chief among which is the question of property rights in the German ships and other property of enemy alien* seized by the government in this country. The state department experts say there is no legal sanction for retention of this property unless the treaty, which contains a provision legalizing it, is ratified. U. S. Interest in Germany.
