BY Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News
Copyright. 1920.
PARIS. November 16.-It is believed
here that a strong effort to abolish
article x from the league of nations
covenant will be made in Geneva.
Sweden. Norway and Denmark have
demanded this abolition. and Switzer-

try Of the United States into the
league and France will certainly ia
vor dropping it. In short. it is believ-
ed that the tendency of the Geneva
meeting will be to restrict the league s
activities rather than to enlarge them
The fact seeems to be that the
league has bitten off more than 1t
can chew Glancing at it's history
