VENEZUELA ABOUT TO
WITHDRAW DELEGATES

Caracas. Ye1s zuela. Aug. 31.-It is stated
that the withdrawal of Venezuela's repre-
sentatives from The Hague conference
will be ordered today. This is due to the
attitude of Venezuela regarding the word
ing of the proposition for the abolition Of
the collection of debts from foreign coun-
tries by force ana to the proposed con-
stitutiOn of the international high court.
Venezuela is with Brazil in her opposition
to the international high court proposition,
holding that the proposed manner of Sc

ciple of equality under which the Latin
republics were invit u to attend the con-
