TELLS PROPOSAL
Of FRANCE FOR
NATIONS LEAGUE
French Statesman Explains
How All Countries Will Be
Compelled to Observe
Wishes of Society.

PARIS, Dec. 20.-Baron d'Estournelles
de Constant Thursday gave the Associ-
ated Press the French plan for bringing
about a society Of nations which the
baron and Senator Leon Bourgeois, for
merly French premier, presented to
Premier ClemenCeau several days ago.
The French premier gave assurances
that the principles Of a society of ma
tions would be inscribed at the head Of
the French program before the peace
conference,
Explaining the detailed plans, the
count said to the Associated Press:
THE essentials of the plan are, first,
compulsory arbitration without limita-
ton or exception. This leaves out the
old exception of questions involving ma
tional honor and dignity. Second, linz
itation OF armaments. Third, the es-
adjustment of a council Of administra-
tion OF the nations for the, formulation
OF new international administration and
international law procedure. Fourth,
the application Of sanctions for max
ing effective the decisions Of the So
ciety of nations, Sanction is a diplo-
matte expression meaning the various
steps for enforcing compliance, They
are four-fold;
First, diplomatic sanction-the socie-
~ of nations shall break diplomatic re-
lations with any recalcitrant nation
and give his passports to the ambassa-
dor or minister representing that ma
ton.
Second, juridical sanction, whereby
the courts of all countries win be closed
TO a recalcitrant nation. 1t will thus
practically be quarautined and placed
outside the pale Of civilized states.
Third, economic sanction, whereby
the economic means of all nations shall
be directed against any recalcitrant
state. The economic weapon of the
united nations will be a great power in
isolating any offending nation, cutting
off its foodstuffs and raw materials
when 1t acts In defiance of the society
of nations.
Fourth, military sanction. This Is
the last sanction by which the Joint
nations would undertake to enforce OBJ
servanc of the decisions of the society
of nations. This military sanction Is
the most difficult and delicate OF all
the questions involved in creating the
society OF nations.
There viii be different views con-
corning the military enforcement of
peace. II is the purpose Of our organ
ization to reconcile these differences
and secure some workable basis Of
agreement. One view 10 for a small Ia

ternational military force, or the nu-
cleus of an International fleet. Others
regard this as unnecessary n prefer
to rely on the moral force of the united
nations. Some may wish to give up
compulsory military service, but retain
the navy.
These divergent views must be
reconeiled. That is the main task which
NJ, C~lemenceau asked us to undertake.
We regard our meeting with the pre-
mier as highly important In inscribing
the principles OF a society of nations
at the head Of the program, for that we
understand to be in accordance with the
desires of President Wilson to place tpe
high ideals Of this united stand against
further warfare at the very forefront
of the peace congress and adopt ii az
the guiding principle in the d%eterihina.

Dogs Numbered to Save Food

The days of the canine are num-
bered if reports circulated through
out the country are'to be credited.
The publicity department of the Ne
vada headquarters of the Federal
food administration states that the
slogan, Get rid of your dog and
raise hog" is now fast assuming
Importance.
The food consumed by the average
dog will grow 300 pound hog. the
publicity manager states. Many peo-
pie have bitterly attacked the stand
taken by some regarding the exter-
mination of the dogs. but the matter
has been brought to the attention of
the food administration. which ad-
mits that it would be saving.
If this plan is worked out it will
not mean the entire determination
of the canine. but rigid licensing
of animals with restrictions imposed
to limit their number.

Jackson, and Miss Pearl Pennington,
nurse in the base hospital at the
camp, were drowned in the Congaree
river about four miles below the gov
ernment dam late yesterday evening
News of the drowning did not reach
the city until this morning.
Capt. Shaw and Miss Pennington and
a lieutenant and another young nurse
from the hospital had gone to the
river banks for few hours. The
captain and Miss Pennington went in
swimming. The lieutenant and the
young woman he was with remained
on the river bank. They observed
some time after the captain and Miss
Pennington had gone into the river
that they were not to be seen. They
became alarmed and began hunt for
them. No trace of them has been
seen since. Their bodies had not been
recovered up to tonight. The lieuten-
ant came to the city Immediately and
searching parties returned to the
river.
Miss Pennington was from Maine
and Capt Shaw from Columbia Mill
tary police are tonight guarding the
banks of the river and tomorrow
morning the effort to recover the
bodies will be renewed.
