deed all the specific recommendations
excepting one were carried by MAORI
ties in excess of two.tlirds. Among
the recommendations thus adopted
was one favoring the organization Of
a system of commercial and financial
non.intercourse, to be applied to a ma.
ton which entered the proposed
league Of nations and then went 10
war without first submitting a differ
ence Which arose to an agreed upon
tribunal.
The one recommendation which
Just failed to receive the two.thirds
majority necessary to commit the Ma
tional Chamber to the proposition was
that which provided for the use OF
concerted military force in the event
that commercial non-intercourse
proved insufficient to compel nations
which have proceeded to wal to desist
from military operations and submit
the questions at issue to an Interna.
tional Court or COUNCIL Of Concilia'
ton.
Whatever may be the ultimate de-
ciston of the League Of Nations when
instituted upon this point it would
seem that for present practical pur'
poses the League to Enforce Peace
may be. looked upon as an agency
through which your organization may
work for the common program en-
braced within the approval OF the rel
erendum vote.
It is from this point Of view, there
fore, that your organization Is asked
to send a delegation to the annual
meeting of the League"
When the Chamber OF Commerce
referendum was submitted last NO
vember MI. Taft wrote to the Prest'
dents OF local Commercial organ12a'
lions as follows: !.
1.-THE irremediable injury that would
result to the whole world in case a
way should not be found, at the close
OF the European conflict, to make wal
less threatening, and TO render.it less
frequent, has induced a considerable
number of leaders in the realms both
of craftsmanship and of business to
combine In an effort to create sentt'
ment in our own and other countries,
in favor of the proposals that were
nut forward at the Philade lphta con
ference.
"The obvious and urgent need that
led the committee Of the Chamber to
draw up its admirable report, and the
Board OF Directors to authorize its
submission, is an eloquent argument
in favor of a combined effort to do all
which human ingenuity and devotion
can, to prevent the recurrence OF sucN
a catastrophe as the world is now ex
periencing."

Seattle Speed Driver Quits the
 Racing Game.

Jim Parsons, who has been hailed as the speed king of the Northwest for the past four years, has aD~ nounced his retirement from racing. Parsons says that his retirement is due to Harry c. Stutz' objection to his racing while he has the state agency for the Stutz cars.
 Parsons is a driver who jumped from comparative obscurity to star dom in single day. Racing fans of the Northwest will remember Jim as the boy. who, without any knowledge whatsoever of the racing cars. converted an old Stutz road-' ster into a racing machine for the 1913 Intercity Race and won that event against large field of ex- perienced drivers and fast machines. His averaged time for the one hun dred miles was 65.5 miles per hour. This performance was remarkably good considering the nature of the track and the fact that it was his first race. At times during the race he was travelling at the rate of SS miles an hour. which is phe- nomenal time for a stock car. Par sons victory in this race not only gave him considerable money, but encouraged him to take part in oth- CT small meets during the year. and he won many events of more or less importance.
 Parsons says that his famous old Stutz No. is now for sale, which is assurance that he is really quit ing the game.
