Four Power Pact Now on Passage Amendments Defeated and First Two Articles Adopted in Committee of the Whole By the Senate (ASSOCIATED PRESS) WASHINGTON, March 23 The senate tonight concluded its debate on the Quadruple Treaty amidst bursts or oratorical fireworks that were scarcely surpassed in the days of the fight against the Versailles treaty but apparently without the change of one vote. Administration senators estimate a margin of three to ten votes over the requisite two thirds, depending upon how many of he opponents of the treaty change over when they finally recognize the hopelessness of their fight against ratification. Lafollette introduced six amendments in the course of the day providing among other things that the treaty may be abrogated upon a year's notice; that there shall be no separate agreements among the signatories pre judicial to the terms of the treaty; that the Anglo-Japanese alliance shall not be renewed during the life of the treaty; that signatories shall respect the independence of the Philippine Islands when it is attained. About a dozen amendments to the treaty or reservations upon it are pending but the administration forces are confident of their ability to-defeat all of them except the reservation proposed by the commitee on foreign relations that "no alliance" is constituted under the terms of the treaty.

Such reservation has the approval of the administration. (ASSOCIATED PRESS) WASHINGTON, Mar. 24 Votes on various proposed modifications and amendments to the proposed quadruple treaty were taken in the senate this morning before the final, vote upon ratification and are indicative of the final artification, showing strength of the factions. By a vote of 61 to 32 the Robinson amendment to Section 1 pledging the signatories against secret pacts was beaten. The committee of the whole voted 74 to 15 to adopt Article 1 and rejected, 59 to 83, the Robinson amendment pledging no aggression against outside powersand permitting out side powers to sit in.conferences under the treaty when their interests were affected By a vote of 63 to 29 the Hitchcock amendment making Article 2 apply to only unprovoked aggression was rejetced.

The Shields amendment that the United States does not intend to abandon traditional policies was rejected. 73 to 13. It rejected by a vote of 62 to 29 that signatories need not be bound by conference decisions. It also rejected by a vote of 65 to 27 the Reed amendment denying obligations to enter war under treaty conference decisions. Johnson's amendment for the use of only "pacific" methods against outside aggression could be considered was rejected 65 to 26.

Article 2, whereon the treaty opponents have centered their fight was then adopted 66 to 28.

Soldiers' Bonus Bill is Passed By Lower House Following Suspension of Rules Measure Carrying Four Billions Goes Through by Big Majority (ASSOCIATED PRESS) WASHINGTON, March 23 By an overwhelming majority and under suspension of the rules, the Soldiers' Bonus Bill passed the house this after noon by an overwhelming majority. The measure will now go to the senate where its fate is regarded as some what problematical.

As passed by the house the bill provides for cash payments where the bonus would not exceed $50 and gives to others the option of four plans: ad-Justed service certificates with a provision authorizing bank loans for the first three years afer October 1, next and thereafter by government certificates to run 20 years with face value at maturity equal to the adjusted service pay increased 25 percent plus 4 percent compound interest; vocational training after January 1, 1923 at the rate of $1.75 per diem, total payments, however, not to exceed 140 per cent of the adjusted service credit; farm and home aid whereunder veterans who purchase or improve homes or farms will be paid after July 1, a sum equal to the adjusted pay plus 25 percent; a land settlement whereunder lands reclaimed under the supervision of a special board will be sold to veterans at a price fixed by the board less the amount of the ad-Justed service credit.

Peters to be chief lust ice and Antonio Perry to be associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Hawaii Territory was sent to the senate by the President today.

VOTE FOR ONE ONLY KOHO NO HOOKAHI Kalama Forecasts 5000Majority Drops Mantle of Reticence and Says Baldwin Will be Easy Victor if Voters go to Polls Tomorrow Usually noncommittal before an election Sam E. Kalama has departed from his habits of reticence this year. He is outspoken in his confidence. Ho forecasts victory for the Maui candidate by a clear majority over all of 5000 votes.

Kalama went on through on liana on the Kilauea on Tuesday and re turned on that boat to Kahului and I then proceeded up to Wailuku. In the I County Clerk's office that afternoon he made the forecast. In part he makes it from his own observations and in part from reports that have wmie nun leinioiiai neauquariers. "It looks good," says Kalama. "On Kauai they are talking about a 500 majority for Baldwin.

On Oahu the Fourth will be strongly Republican as ever and it is even being figured that Baldwin will carry the Fifth. Reports from Hawaii are good. too. It's not a question of beating McCandless but of beating all the other three candidates combined." But he lays stress on the point that to fulfill his prophesy the vote must come out and that It is up to Maui to see that every voter gets to the polls. A letter received from Honolulu yesterday forecast 4000 plurality for Baldwin.

Kalama went to Lahaina after a short time in Wailuku and met the Mauna Kea aboard which were Senators Baldwin, Wise and Desha.
