Senator Johnson took the view that the reservations adopted removed the objectionable , features of the tacts and announced he would sup port the treaties. v -Under the terms of the reserva tion, congress 'will retain the power of final decision: as to whether the I'nitcd States shall take part in the economic readjustment in Europe.

Car Men to Vote On Acceptance of 7-Cent Wage Cut Union President Sayi lie Be lieves Majority of Men Will Object to Decrease; Meet , ing Tuesday. A vote will be taken Tuesday at Central Labor temple to determine whether union car men will accept or reject the 7-cent wage re duction announced by the street rail way company yesterday. Tony Rubeck, president of the car men's union, local No. 807, emphat ically declared himself ag.vr.st the proposed wage cut last night. "I believe a large majority of the men will vote against accepting such a iecr;asc," said President Rubeck. "The street car men are willing to help the country get back to normal, but I am sure the decline in the cost of living thus far docs not .war rant 7-cent decrease' Will Call General Meeting. President Rubeck said the cxecu tive board of the union would prob ably hold a meeting tomorrow, make recommendations, and call a general meeting for Tuesday. Asked if it were possible that the car men might propse a compromise by offering to take a smaller wage cut. President Rubeck said: "I would be overstepping myself in makinsr any such prediction. It is ud to the men to decide." A strike vote, taken prior to a hearing before .the state railway commission on application for a wage increase, more than a year ago, will have no bearing on the present situ ation ' according to President Ru beck.
