Campaign for Support.
by Robert j. Bender, United Press
STAFF Correspondent
PARIS, Feb. IA campaign to
win world wide support of the league
of nations will be opened when Presi-
dent Wilson reads the constitution be-
fore the general peace congress this
afternoon.
The president, Premier Orlando and
other statesmen Will speak briefly IN
behalf of the league, pointing out that
It is now a practical and workable
proposition and deserving Of unani-
NOUS support Instead of seeking
formal adoption Of the constitution by
the peace conference at this time, the
conferees will ask that the draft be
laid on the table TO give the world an
opportunity to study and comment on
It.
President Wilson. Premier Lloyd
George, Premier Uemenceau, Premier
Orlando and others win confer directly
with their own people regarding the
league. Arriving IN Washington, the
president will begin Immediately q
series of conferences with the lead
ers of all parties In congress after
which he is expected to make a strong
appeal for enforcement of the LEAGUE
in an address before joint session Of
the house and senate.
Complete accord was reached on
the league constitution ut the tenth
session of the special committee late
yesterday. The French plan for an
international military and naval Do
lice force was defeated The official
communique on this session said;
'tThe second reading Of the DRAFT
of the league OF nations which began
this morning under the craftsmanship
of President Wilson was continued
this afternoon from half past thre.
until seven O'Clock at the Hotel Grill

Robert Cecil Due to the spirit of &C
cord which has continually been man
tested among the members OF thecou
mission and IN spite of some reseI
vations, which have been made wit
regard to certain articles by some {
the members, the whole text of tn
agreement, comprising twenty-six a

and complete discussion whic

sible for the administration of the
territory subject to conditions which
Will guarantee freedom of conscience
or religion, subject only to the main
tenance of public order and morals,
the prohibition OF abuses, such as
the slave trade, the arms traffic and
the liquor traffic and the proven ton
of the establishment Of Notifications
or military and naval bases and Of
military training OF the natives for
other than police purposes and the
defense Of territory and will also
secure equal opportunities for the
trade and commerce OF other mem
bers Of the league.
There are territories, such as
Southwest Africa and certain of tbs
South Pacific isles, which, owing to
the sparseness Of their population or
their small size, OF their remoteness
from the centers Of civilization, or
their geographical continuity to the
mandatory state, and other circurn-
stances, can be best administered
under the laws OF the mandatory
state as integral portions thereof,
subject to the safeguards above men
toned, in the interests of the indi-
genous population.
'-In every case mandate, the man
datory state shall render to the
league an annual report in reference
to the territory committed to lis
charge.
THE degree of authority, .contro;
or administration by the mandatory
state, shall, if not previously agreed
upon by the high contracting parties,
in each case be explicitly defined by
tive oof1npi1 in q srlactQl qCk
or charter.
1.-The high contracting parties fur
Their agree to establish at the seat
OF the league mandatory commits

annual reports of the mandatory
powers and to assist the league IN
ensuring the observance of the terms
OF all mandates

ing parties will ,endeavor to secure
and maintain fair and humane con-
ditions of labor for men, women and
children, both In their own coun-
tries and in all countries to which
their commercial and Industrial rela-
tons extend; and to that end agree
to establish as part of the organiza-
.tion Of the league permanent bu-
reau of labor.
ARTICLE 21-"The high contract
ing parties agree that provision shall
be made through the fundamentally
of the league to secure and maintain
freedom of transit and equitable
treatment for the commerce of all

ing in mind. among other things,
special arrangements with regard to
the necessities of the regions devas-
tated during the war of 1914-191s.

control OF the league all information

eral treaties, IL the parties to such

accept the obligations OF membership
in the league for the purposes OF
such dispute upon such conditions as
the executive council may deem just
and upon acceptance of any such IN
vitation the above provisions shall
be applied with such notifications
as may be deemed necessary by the
league.
Upon such investigation being
given the executive council shall inn
mediately institute an inquiry into
the circumstances and merits OF the
dispute and recommend such action
as may seem best and most efectual
in the circumstances.
"In the event of power SO In
vited refusing to accept the obligar
lions of membership In the league
for the purposes of such dispute and
member of the league which In the
taking any action against q state
case of state member of the league
would constitute breach of article
IL The provisions of article 16 shall
be applicable as against the state
taking such action.
IF both parties to the dispute
when so invited refuse, to accept the
obligations Of membership in the
league for the purpose of such dis
pute, the executive council may take
such action and make such recon-
mendations as will prevent hostili-
ties and will result in the settlement
OF the dispute.
ARTICLE 1S-"The high contract.
ing parties agree that the league
shall be entrusted with general sup
ervision of the trade In arms and
ammunition with the countries In
which the control of this traffic is
necessary In the common interest.
ARTICLE 19-"To those colonies
and territories which as q conse.
Iuuence of theslate war ceased TO be
under the sovereignty of the states
which formerly governed them and
which are inhabited by peoples not
yet able to stand by themselves under
the strenuous conditions Of the mod
ern world, there should be applied
the principle that the well-being and
development of such peoples form a
sacred trust of civilization and that
securities for the performance of
this trust shall be embodied in the
constitution of the league.
The best method of giving prac-
teal effect to this principle is that
the tutelage of such peoples should
be entrusted to advanced nations
who by reason of their resources,
their experience or their geographi-
cal position can best undertake this
respectively and that this tutelage
should be exercised by them as man
datories on behalf of the league.
1.-THE character of the mandate
must differ according to the stage of
the development of the people, the
geographical situation of the terri
tory, It's economic conditions and
other similar circumstances.
Certain communities formerly be-
longing OF the Turkish empire have
reached a stage of development
where their existence as Independent
nations can be Professionally recog-
nized subject to the rendering of adj
ministrative advice and assistance
by mandatory power until such
time as they are able to stand alone.
The wishes Of the communities must
be principal consideration in the
selection of the mandatory powers.

central Africa, are at such stage
that the mandatory must be respon-

GOVERNORS DISCUSS
DELAWARE bridge
Sproul. Edge and Townsend
Talk Interstate Matters
at Luncheon
STURGEON MAY
WIN PROTECTION

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. i5.-Imme-
diate action by the Legislatures OF
Pennsylvania and New Jersey which
viii make possible the speedy con-
struction of the Delaware River bridge
connecting Camden and Philadelphia
will be recommended by Governor
Sproul and Governor Edge, Of New Jer-
sey.
This was announced yesterday by
Governor sproul, following a confer
ence in Philadelphia In the Union
League with Governor Edge, Of New
Jersey; Governor Townsend, Of Della
ware, and Mayor Smith.
In addition to the recommendations
which will be made to the respective
Legislatures, Mayor Smith will recon-
mend to Councils a plan whereby the
city will share equally with the State
the cost OF construction Of Pennsyl-
vania's part Of the bridge and the cost
of condemnation Of property necessary
to the construction Of the approaches TO
the bridge and the construction OF the
approaches themselves.
The total cost TO the city and the
State Of Pennsylvania, in the opinion
Of Governor Sproul, will be about 80
100000. The State. Governor Sproul
said. Will include the bridge as part OF
the Commemorative highway program
and undoubtedly will place the project
I'm charge Of the Department OF Public
Grounds and Buildings. It IS the gov
ernor's idea that the city should pay
half Of the 100000.
Govsrnor Sproul said that several I'M
portant subjects were discussed at the
the first Of which was the
matter Of sturgeon fisheries in the Della
ware River. As a result Of the views
by Governor Edge, 1t Is likely
the Legislatures OF Delaware, Pennsyl-
vania and New Jersey will be asked 10
enact legislation providing for a CLOSED
season for sturgeon. Governor Sproui
said Pennsylvania is not much Inter
ested in this matter. but would 'un-
Join with her sister States
in the matter. It Is said sturgeon are
rarely seen on the Pennsylvania side OF
the Delaware.
Governor Sproul said the determined
opinion is that New Jersey should pay
rs share Of the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
bridge over the Delaware River, but that
n would be unfair to expect New Jersey
10 pay the property damages In Penn
sylvania which would result from the
bridge.
