ing. This was made known this

must do 80 on the terms agreed upon
by the members of the league or fix
ed by the council. In two other cases
the council has power to take action
that has a binding effect, but not on
the members of the league. 1t can
determine conditions on which an
outside power may join the league,
either for the purpose of settling
particular dispute or permanently,
and in this last case it can regulate
the military equipment the new
member may possess.
Not a super-SoVerelgn.
We may observe that only in mat
ters of procedure and appointment,
and in publishing facts and recon-
nendations in dispute where it
cannot make report with any bind
ing effect can the council act by ma
jority. In all other cases, even
/ where it only gives advice, its vote
must be unanimous. The only excep.
ton is that in deciding a dispute the
votes of the parties thereto are not
counted. The United States might
thus be prevented by act Of the coun-
Gil from attacking member of the
league when all the other members
of the council thought we were in the
wrong Save in that case no action
of the council, which must be unani-
nous, even the making of recommen'
dalions, cannot take place unless the
United States concurs. The fear
i therefore, of a super-sovereign, a loss
Of our national sovereignty, or a
council that rules the world, is the
result of inattentive reading of the
documents or Of an overheated imagi-
nation.
The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1919-08-09

The council is the principal organi-
zation Of the league; for while it's
functions are almost entirely con
fined to supervision and the making
Of recommendations the sphere in
which it can do this is large.
Now the responsibility for carrying
out the objects Of the league rests
mainly upon the five larger nations.
On their cooperation iri effective
ness depends. Without them it would
be powerless. They must be kept
constantly in close touch with one an
other, and hence in the small body
which meets most frequently and in
which the most intimate conference
takes place, they must always be
present. But although that body pos
sesses no legal authority tc direct the
action of the members, yet if it were
composed exclusively Of the repre-
sentatives Of the five largest nations
those five could, If they agreed to-
gether, exert such an influence as
practically to rule the league, and in
fact the whole world. 1t is important,
therefore, that the smaller states
should be represented on the council,
and that the states having seats there
should not always be the same To
accomplish this result the assembly
is empowered to select from time to
time the states that shall send rep
resentatiyes; and since in the assem-
bly, the small states will far out
number the large ones, and each
state has one vote, the states to have
seats will practically be selected by
the smaller members of the league.
In order, moreover, that important
action affecting any smaller state
may not be taken in its absence it is
further provided that in such case
the state shall be specially invited to
attend. Thus effectiveness by the
presence of the larger states is com
bined with fair consideration for the
smaller ones.
