RICHMOND MAN
MOULDS CHINA'S
LEAGUE STAND
William c. Dennis of This City
Advises Acceptance of Pro-
posed Constitution.

The role Richmond man is playing
in the world drama now being enacted
on the European continent is describ-
ed in copy of an address, ''The Cove
nant Of the League of Nations" deliv-
cred by William Cullen Dennis, Rich
mond man who is chief legal adviser
to the Chinese government, at Tien-
stin, China, recently The speech is
construed as Dennis official view on
the league. Dennis mother, Mrs.
David w Dennis, resides at Main and
West Seventh streets, this city.
A copy of the address in which he
gives counsel affecting the destiny Of
the Chinese empire, was received yes
ter1ay at Ear1ham college. Dennis
graduated from the local educational
institution in 1895, at the age Of IS
years BY virtue Of his position. Dem
mis- has been able to give the league
proposal as careful study as those who
drafted the constitution.
"Worth All It Costs"
Although the obligations imposed
are heavy and at best must remain
somewhat ill-def1ned, 1t is worth all
cost to those nations which will profit
least and give most if the era of forei-
BILE expansion and annexation with all
its attendant evils has forever ended, .
said Dennis, in discussing the spirit
existing between the nations that are
members of the league. Even If some
nations must pay disproportionate
part of the price, heroic Belgium has
Just shown that it is as true of ma
| ton as of an individual that Whose
ever shall seek to save his life shall
end it, and whosoever shall lose his
| life shall preserve it, 1t is in this
spirit that the countries like America
| must face the apparent sacrifice which
i the proposed constitution Of the league
entails-the possibility that even ques-
tions as vital as within the compe-
| tence of nation, as its immigration
| policy, might, If they came to effect
! the peace of the world, be drawn into
discussion before the executive coun
| Gil of the league"
As Applied to China.
! Dennis makes an application Of this
/ same spirit in regard to China's ac-
/ ceptance Of the covenant Of the league
/ ''It is in the same spirit of sacrifice
! for the common good that China must
! weigh the advantages and the disad
vanta ees of the league against the
consideration that the league gives
her what she needs and must have:
The opportunity for the development
of her internal resources and the solu
!! tion of her internal problems unveyed
! by threat or actuality of foreign ag
! gression.
"In referring to the fact that China
does not have a representative on the
executive council of the league, Den
mis- says: mo nation can accept pre-
sent exclusion from the executive
council as well as China, whose re
sources. territory and history. given 6
| few years of recuperation, are such as
to entitle her and to secure for her
with the consent of all, recognition
