PERMANENT COMMISSION
FOR ECONOMIC BLOCKADE
Council of League of Nations VIII
Recommend This Action to the
League Assembly

San Sebastian, Spain, Aug. 4.-The
council of the league of nations will
recommend to the assembly of the
league at its next meeting that an in
ternatiOnal commission be appointed
to plan for the application of an eco
nomic blockade in case of war, it was
announced at a public session Of the
council yesterday morning. The as
sembly of the league will meet at
Geneva next November and will be
presided over by Paul Hymans, the
Belgian foreign minister.
The international blockade commits
sion will probably be composed of
equal numbers of the council and the
assembly of the league of nations, but
may be superseded by another organ
lzation after the question has been
more fully studied.
1t was also decided by the council
to invite the United States govern
ment to make provisional arrange
ments either for direct representation
at the international conference on the
freedom of transit, to, be held at Bar
celona early in 1921, or to participate
Indirectly in the meeting. The OBJ
ject of the Barcelona conference will
be to plan ways and means Of pre-
venting any country from profiting
by its geographical situation by him
dering the free movement of internal
tional traffic, and to arrive at a
clearer and more uniform system for
regulating such traffic.

vote by the 100000 railroad en-
ployes without recommendation
from the union leaders either for its
acceptance or rejection appeared
probable tonight. This was the opln-
ion IN labor circles following relec-
ton by the United States Railway
Labor Board of a petition for a re-
opening of the case.
Three Possible Courses
Three courses were open to the
union chiefs:
First-Submlssion without recon-
mendation.
Second-Recommen that the
award be accepted.
Thlrd-That it be rejected.
The more conservative counsel IN
the union ranks had steadfastiy op-
posed outright rejection of the La
Dor Boards decision. The door to
recommendation to adoption ap-
paren1iy was closed TO-DAY, leaders Of
rail workers animated. when they
requested that the case be re-opened
and the board refused to acceed.

After asking for a re-heaTing il
appeared doubtful that the union
leaders could consistently recon-
mend acceptance of the award. as
their action indicated II was unsat-

left open therefore. would be TO pass
