HITCHCOCK TO DEF'ENSE Exchanges Become so Heated the Chairman Has to Rap for Order. Washington, 'May 26.--The league -of nations was debated in the Senate again today with ani increasing show of bitterness. Senator Reed, Democrat, of Mis souri, attacked the prop~osal in such vigorous terms that he aroused re p~eated objections from senators sup porting it and developed a running debate colored by dIramatic accusa tions and heated retorts. The Missou ri Senator dleclaredl the league would place the destinies of this white -race in the hands of ignorane and super stitious nations of black and yellow population, and chavged that many D~emocrats were supporting it for par tisan reasons. In i quent interruptions of the Missouri Senator's speech, Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, ranking Denm ocrat of the foreign ~relations commit tee, insisted that the premises for these charges were false and that the inferences drawvn wvere unfair and dangerous. He dIrew in turn a reply from Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, who suggested that supporters of the league covenant shoula read it before they discussed it. Calls for Oraer.

" The measure which brought the ssue before the Senate was the reso: ution of Senator Johnson, Republican, f Califot "ia, requesting from the htate Departmert the full text of the >eace treaty. There was no attempt o reach a vote on the resolution, on which debate began last Friday, and he measure went over again as un inished business to come up when he Senate reconvenes Wednesday. Without speaking <iirectly on the [ohnson resolution, Senator Reed 1cde a general attack upon the eague covenant itself as a proposal :o hand over control of the white ace and the civilized world to an as sembly of nations where a majority always could be brought together on may race question in opposition to white supremacy. He declared sup )ort of the league plan never could )e explained at home by' Senators rom the South, with -ts negro prob em, or from the West with its Chi iese and Japanese preelems. Turning iramatically to his Democratic col eagues, he continued: "If a Republican President had >rought it here-if Roosevelt had )rought it here-there isn't a Demo 'rat that wouldn't have been stand ne by my side fighting to the last litch to rescue the country from so nonstrous and so cruel a thing." Southern Democrats Chided. Southern Democrats particularly A'ere chided for refusing to recog mie the negro as ane equal at the )allot box, but at the same time ac "'eting South Africa and other na ions where the black race prcedomi mtes as members of the league as mem'bly on an equality with the United States. "You think you c'an control the mote of the lilack race." he asserted, 'butt on any ouestion of race equality ou never wvill be able te (do it." To supno't his prediction that the )l',dk. vellow r'ed and brown r'aces rould combine to embarass the white race, Senator Reed cited the amend )OF OF BEDAR SHIP raterial Needed isi & McLEO Sumter, S.

Although the amendient failed, he caid, the .Jap anese delegates reserved the right to bring it later before the league for determination. Senator Reed also quoted from a pe. riodical published by negroes in this country a passage declaring a league of nations or some other "interna tional power," to he absolutely "nec. essar yfor the salvation of the negre race," in view of treatment of the negroes in the United States and South Africa. Mass of Statistics. In his speech of nearly three hours Senator Ieed presented a mass of statistics and other information re garding the smaller members of the league. The members nations in which the white race was predominant, he s-id, totalled in population only 28?,. 488,800, while those four other races are in the majority with a population of 811,425,000. le said white nations would have fifteen votes in the l;ague and other nations seventeen. As the nations where white blood does not predominate, the Senator named Liberia, Haiti, Hledjiaz, P~ana ma, Honduras, Nicaragua. Guatamnala, Ecuador, Cuba, Bolivia, Peru, Brazil, Souxth Africa, Siam, India, China and Japan.
