As in the original document, the COW
enant provides that the league shall
act through an assembly in which
each state shall have one vote and
not more than three delegates, and a
council, comprising for the present one
representative of each of the five
great powers and each of four other

called the "third term plot" reprb-
iieans pointed to the fact that demo
Gratis who have spoken this week on
the league have emphasized the charge
that the president S opponents are Jeai-
Gus Of his prestige and eager to tear
