UNDERGRADS VOTE FOR COMPROMISE ON TREATY

Dartmouth undergraduate and faculty opinion is strongly in favor of hastening ratification of the treaty of peace by the arrangement of a compromise between the Lodge and Democratic reservations to the League of Nations Covenant, it was shown in the Dartmouth vote cast during the national intercollegiate referendum on the treaty January 14. This view was embodied in the last of the four propositions submitted to the voters. It drew more than twice as many votes as any of the other three. The four propositions, with the Dartmouth vote on them, were as follows:

Students Faculty Proposition I "I favor ratification of the league and treaty in unchanged form." 164 27 Proposition II"I am opposed to the ratification of the league in any form." 73 2 Proposition III "I favor the ratification of the treaty, but only with the Lodge reservations." 115 5 Proposition IV "I favor a compromise between the Lodge and Democratic reservations in order to facilitate ratification of the treaty." 423 43 Total vote 775 77
