LEAGUE OF NATIONS FATE
! DEPENDS ON COOPERATION

o. The Associated Press.
Il LONDON. Oct. 25-The fate Of
the League of Nations dcpncds upon
the moral cooperation OF those peo-
pie who. inspired by a true n Of
Justice. are conscious Of the ncces-
sity for solidarity in international
relations. Count Sforza, Italian Min
ister of Foreign Affairs. has written
In a circular letter to Italian diplO-
matte agents abroad.
In his Instructions to Italian diplo-
matte agents. Count Sforza express
ed his ideas on the league. speaking
of the realization of its impcrfcc-
lions by the states which contribute
to it's formation and of the necessity
for the admission of states not yet
members in order that the leagues
authority can be assured and its
Structure perfected.
As a result of bitter criticism and
loud praise OF the league there has
been considerable sccpticism OF the
new institution, wrote Count SforZa.

exact knowledge of what the League
of Nations really is the more valua-
ble for restraining dididcnt and

cit is necessary to instill the firm
conviction that the new institution,
which has been invoked for centu-
ries by the Italian philosophical and
legal doctrine, represents "A higher
degree of the evolution of law based
on a higher unity than hat of the
state. The creation of "A League of
Nations aims at securing the iuteg-
ritv of its members and maintaining
International peace. 1t does not
therefore exclude the hypothesis of
war: it excludes it as the supreme
right of the strongest, as the SUI
preme appeal to violence, as an
event abandoned to the capriccs and
vicissitudes OF fortune; it admits IL.
on the contrary, as an affirmation Of
the moral power of right for rein

Italy to promote knowledge of the
league. They + requested to re-
port all manifestations regarding the
league to the special department

EDITORIAL COMMENT

1t you can save money you
will be a success in life is the
modern money changers"
maxim So far as society and
mammon are concerned this
maxim will aptly apply; but
there is a higher and nobler
standard of success in life,
which is better and more ele-
waiting than amassing money
or worldly posses sions. The
man who dies a millionaire is
not usually considerate of his
fellow man until death comes
to claim him, when like Car
negie and other worldly ex-
ploiters, be suddenly becomes
generous with what he has
accumulated. But all Of his
charities can not atone for the
mercenary, soulless acts and
instincts which were part Of
his business life which was a
success from a business view
but empty nothlngncss when
called to his long home. To
save, to accumulate, getting
the money" SO to speak, does
not endear one to his fellow
man-for what shall it profit
a man tho he gain the whole
world and lose his own soul.
The honest backwoodsman
who raises his family in the
wilderness and deals fairly
with whom he comes in con-
tact, gets more out of life and
IS more a success than those
who become financial barons,
or rulers of empires. Present
day teachings condone every
method for amassing a fortune
even tho it cause war and all
its attendant miseries and
horrors. Because a nation is
victorious in war does not im-
ply that it is a success. The
Chinese nation is the oldest
in history. Its people are un-
educated and primitive, yet
according to their archives,
like the Eskimos, until con-
taminated by mercenary ex-
plotting and trade manipulate
ing whites, were happy, hon
est, peaceful and contented
natlons-a success so far as
ambitions, environments and
humanity to their fellow man
is concerned. @ Getting the
money" or saving it by self
denial and boarding is some

State Sealer of Weights and
Measures on the Warmth

Deputy State Sealer Of Weights
and Measures Levi S. Pennell of
Portland stated Friday that about
400 OF the, towns expected to report
on their inspection Of weights and
measures in their localities have done
so. The few delinquents are being
urged to attend to that business at
once-by 50 doing avoiding running
up against another phase of the laws
Of Maine. Said Mr.. Pennell:
1t may not appear to some to be
q very important matter, this inspec-
ton of weights and measures, but
since the law has been vigorously
enforced in Maine it has saved the
buyer and consumer thousands of
dollars. A man with a short weight
may realize hundreds Of dollars in
short time, a mere trifle coming out
Of each customer, but the aggregate
being large. We have seized cheat
ing scales and measures enough to
fill a haystack. Everyone OF them
had been cheating the customer.
That is why we are insistent that the
town and city sealers shall attend to
their duties and report to us that
they have done so. If any sealer fails
to do 80, he will be finally introduced
to q court"
Mr.. Pencils statement as to the
present vigorous enforcement of
the law leads to the question: How
long, Mr.. Pennell. has the law had
teeth in it and, how long has it been
rigidly enforced?" He replied:
Prior to 1911-12 the treasurer of
State acted as sealer Of weights and
measures. The law covering this i'm
portant public need had been on the
statute books for about 50 years ana
provided that each Of the sac towns
and cities and plantations should be
provided with suitable standards of
weights and measures. bat the fact
remained that only I'VE cities had
even a semblance of suitable eouip-
ment. That the public was entitled
to know whether or not scales, meas
ures. etc. used for selling yarious
were accurate, empba-
sized the necessity of more efYlcient

was changed, making the commits
