tlons In his address.
Preliminary conversations over the
structure OF the league Of nations are,
strictly speaking, still in the stage OF
being discussed in meetings of the
supreme council. and are not techni-
cally before the peace congress as
whole, but the fact that the congress
has advanced this question to the
foremost place in It's program II taken
to indicate that such progress is being
made In the supreme council as TO
warrant expectation that . definite
and somewhat detailed program viii
be soon evolved.
This program. 1t is believed. with

leaders Of the United States. Great

furnish a starting point from which
all the peace delegates may partict-
pate. President Wilson is personally
pressing forward this one feature to
the virtual exclusion OF all others.
With discussion now past the point
where 1t seems to be agreed there
shall be no supersovereignty. nor
common police force and that the
question Of whether nation shall con
