j, S. METHODS URGED
BY WORLD RED CROSS

GENEVA, March 4.-American
ideals put into practice promised to
feature discussions today at the open
ing of the first meeting of the general
council of the League of Red Cross
Societies here.
Pointing to the membership record
of the Red Cross. held by the United
States, delegates were almost unani-
m Gus in asserting methods used by Am
rican leaders in enrolling rs per cent
OF the population of the United States
as members of the Red Cross will be
adopted by societies in other countries
when the peacetime program has been
decided on.
Henry =. Dawson, head of the Am
erican Red Cross and chairman OF the
league, was to preside at the meetings
during the s-day session. Thirty ma
tions were to be represented.
In addition to the election of five
additional governors, the main busi-
ness to come up at the league meeting,
one of the first 'and most important
meetings to be held at the capital OF
the league Of nations, will likely be
plans for the Improvement of public
health and prevention of disease
the world.
Methods of practical application Of
the principles of the convention Mt
Cannes last April. when leading sci
entists of various countries were con-
voked to study the general plan for
co-ordinating the work Of the individ-
nal Red Cross societies. likely will be
worked out.

That the market for sheep is not
quite so strong as a week or 10 days
ago is indicated by the fact that kill
ers are seemingly less keen about tax
ing additional supplies. The opening
of the shearing season and the ex-
pected early arrivals of shorn stock is
keeping the market rather quiet.
