A Boy Just the Same.

Little curly-headed, four-year-old Joe
had often been mistaken for a girl by
reason of those same beautiful curls,
but it was very sore point with him.
He came very near, however. turning
II to advantage one afternoon when his
six-year-old sister was giving a birth
day party "for girls only"
Poor little Joe wandered around the
refreshments spread on the grass, gaz-
ing wistfully at the cookies and lem
onade which his sister was serving to
her little girl guests.
mo, Joe, this party is only for little
girls. and no boys can come" Then
poor little Joe turned past taunts into
an argument that would admit him,
and walled out, "Well, sister. l amt

GOLD IN GRIP OF NEPTUNE
Hope Renewed That Millions Lost In
Treasure Ships May Be Brought
to the Surface.

Somewhere In the sea off the coast
Of Zululand lies the ship Dorothea.
which went down on Tenedos reef,
carrying with her, so some people be-
lieve, part of the fortune of Dom Paul
Kruger once president of the Trans
vaal, and rumor has Ii that plans are
afoot to fit out British expedition
In the hope of salyaging her. The
war has improved methods of salvag-
ing sunken ships. and, If the Dorothea
really carried it, the gold cemented
into the hold of the vessel has been
estimated at over 100000. Before
the war a syndicate was organized to
attempt recovery of the vessel, and
unsuccessful efforts were made to To-
cate her; now the project is again pos
sible-perhaps all the more so, because
time has accumulated so many treas
ure ships which are again under dis
cussion. A list recently published in
cludes: The Grosvenor, lost on the
Pendoland coast. with SS,7500o0; the
Ariston, in Marcus bay, with $4,000
600; the Blrkenhead, on Birkenhead
reef, with $500 600; the Dorothea, on
Tenedos reef. with S3,250,0O0; the
Abercrombie, with 100000; the Mere
stein. with 100000, and the Thunder
bolt, with S2,750,000. II a sunken
treasure enterprise fails of one treas
ure ship, perhaps t can find another.
SO far, however. the sea has proved a
miser with the gold 1t has acquired;
may the modern Improvements In sal
vaging equipment change the habit.

CONTRIBUTION BOX ,
Hodgins Answers Lewis

Editor Star-Mirror:
There appears in the issue of your
paper of the 9th, in the Contribution
Box, an article entitled "Re-League
of Nations" signed by M. T. Lewis,
which is SO misleading that am
undertaking to answer it.
The very illustration that Mr..
Lewis gives in support of his conten
ton destroys his argument.
He tells us that Great Britain re-
presents all of its colonies in their
relations with other countries and all
diplomatic matters. In this state
ment he is eminently correct, and for
this reason Great Britain and all of
its colonies and dominions constitute
but one nation-The British Empire.
The example that he gives US to ill
ustrate the operation Of the League
of Nations, acting through the Coun-
ell, and Assembly, is an imaginary
difference between the United States
and Canada, and he insists that if
such controversy were referred to the
Assembly for action, Canada would
have the votes Of Australia, New
Zealand, India, South Africa and
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1920-10-29

sembly. Any question which affects
the international rights of Canada
affects the international rights OF
the British Empire, and if the EN-
plre has no vote upon such matters
| then no colony or dominion, part of
the British Empire, could have a vote
in either branch of the executive
head of the League of Nations
By Article IL of the covenant,
members of the League agree that
they will submit to arbitration or in
quiry by the Council, any matter in
dispute likely to lead to rupture,
and further agree not to resore to
war until three months after the
award by the arbitrators.
Under Article Is the members
agree that if the dispute referred to
in Article IL is submitted to the
Council, that the Council shall en-
deavor to effect settlement of the
dispute, and if such efforts are sue
cessful a statement shall be made
public giving all of the facts ascer-
tanned, explanations regarding the
dispute, and the terms of the settle
ment thereof.
If the Council is not successful in
settling the dispute, the Council may
either unanimously, or by a majority
vote, make public a report containing
a statement of the facts of the dis
pute and the recommendations which
are deemed just and proper in re-
gard thereto.
And, any member of the League
represented on the Council may make
public a statement of the facts of the
dispute, end of its conclusions re-
garding the same.
Such dispute may be referred by
the Council to the Assembly, or may
be taken from the Council to the AS
sembly at the request of either party
to the dispute, in which event the AS
sembly acts by majority vote in
stead of UNANIMOUS vote, but the
scope of action of the Assembly is the
same as the scope of action of the
Council; it can only make and pub
fish it's conclusions with reference to
the dispute and such conclusions have
no binding force upon the parties in
as has an arbitration decree.
The real power of the League of
