|BALFOUR MAKES
SERIOUS CHARGE
Claims to See Attempts to Co.
cree Council on Question
of Mandates.
Doherty Warns Council of
Gravity of Responsibility 1t
Has Assumed.

Geneva, Dec, lS--(A. pJ--Charges
by A. }. Baltour, British member oil
the council of the leaghe or nations
that attempts were icing made In as
semhly circles to coerce ;he couaci
on the question OF mandates featured
a spirited debate in the assembly this
forenoon.
The assembly eventually adopted the
report OF its mandate committee which
declared the council had adopted sucn
a policy regarding mandates that there
was no opportunity TO discuss them
publicly before they went into force
The report also declared against the
recruiting OF soldiers by mandatory
nations I'm territories they were ad-
ministering and against the exploita-
tion OF the natural resources OF such
territories Tor the benefit OF the man
datory powers.
The attack upon the council was led
by Lord Robert Cecil who criticised
the councils refusal to communicate
to the assembly the text of the various
mandates for the administration OF
former German colonies Lord Robert
was followed by &. j. Doherty, OF
Canada, who expressed the disappoint-
HeHt Ielt Dy tne CANADIAN delegates
that no opportunity had been given the
assembly to examine the mandates.
There will be no better test OF the
sincerity of the league than the terms
of the mandates and the manner in
which they are executed" he said.
Mr. Doherty warned the council OF
the responsibility 1t had assumed in
withholding the mandates from pub
lcity.
Mr.. Balfour came to the defense OF
the council. The danger, as he saw il,
was not in the terms or the manner OF
execution OF the mandate but in the
liability of the assembly to come into
conflict with the council which alone
he contended was held by the trainers
OF the covenant to have Jurisdiction
over mandates
Il shall not feel bound, nor Will my
successor in this council feel bound by
anything this assembly or any other
shall do" he cried MANY
Of the delegates appeared nonplussed
by Mr.. Balfours defiant attitude to-
ward the assembly, particularly when
he referred to the Jealous spirit shown
by some OF the speakers. and when he
declared that the recommendation OF
the mandate committee amounted TO
coercive measures as regarded the
council.

Awaits More 0pportune Time
to Urge Evacuation of Shan

DR.. Koo MAKES DECISION

Geneva, Dec. 1S.-Q. N. S.)--Dr. We'll
lington Koo, former Chinese ambassa
dor to the United States and head OF
the Chinese delegation 10 the league
OF nations meeting announced at the
final session Of the assembly today that
China has decided to await more IA
vorable time to press for the evacua-
ton Of the Shantung peninsula by the
japanese.
Delegates from former enemy coun-
tries sat in the league of nations meet
ing for the first time today. Repre-
sentatives from Austria and Bulgaria.
which nations We're admitted on Thurs
day, were present. Some Of the small
Ter states that We're admitted to the
leagne had representation also.
AS this was the last day OF the as
semoly meeting the delegates met es-
peclally early 10 clean up routine mat
tefs. Ttfe most important matter ON
Tie program vi unfinished business was
tne Armenian mandate. The powers
had not announced the name OF the
mandatory nation Tor Armenia up "
the Time OF the final session today.
Many OF the delegates will leave
Geneva In hostile mood over the
manuale QUESTION. The assembly was
ignored completely. The mandate de-
cislons Of the interaflied supreme
council and the league of nations
council have been put INTO effect de-
spite protests from assembly members. 5.
Ihls reopens Germany's contention
that the mandates foi the former Ger
man colonies should be held by the
league Of nations instead of the Dig
powers controlling the supreme coun-
cil. Germany threatened TO break the
treaty OF Versailles unless the protest
was Needed, but it was ignored All
indications OF the closing session OF the
assembly meeting are that the fight to
give theN ASSEMBLY equal power with
the council will be resumed at the
next melting
The general conclusions Of the man
date committees report, which was
awaited with much interest were that |
the council OF the league had adopted |
such policy regarding mandates thut
there was no opportunity to discuss |
them publicly before they went into |
force;, that the mandatory nations
should not recruit soldiers in terri |
tories confided to them, nor profit from |
their trust i'll exploiting for their BEN |
eilt the natural resources of their ter
ritories.
