CAS- a result of the deadlock that

campaign.
"By Section Of the articles of
incorporation of the League to Enforce
Peace the league is not permitted to
enter politics in any manner, or to
advocate or oppose any individual for
any public Office. The league has
strictly conformed with these pro-
visions. This, however, places no in
hibition or limitation upon the league,
but rather a duty and obligation to
continue advocacy of its principles and
to restate its position in favor Of the
covenant Of the league, with such reser-
vations as can be adopted by a two
thirds vote of the Senate and be ac-
cepted by the governments now mem

The French Parliament, which is
now an vacation, is not expected to
resume its s:ttings until the end of
October, and the greatest efforts will
be made to prevent a Presidential
crisis arising before that date At the
end of the last Parliamentary session
rumors were current of political plot
to depose M. Deschanel and elect some
one else in his place.
OF those most likely to succeed Nj
Deschanel in the event of q vacancy,
Premier Millerand is the most probable
candidate. although it is affirmed that
friends of General Castelnau have been
sounding the possibility of his election
to the Presidency.
The anti-Deschanel agitation how

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16-Premier
Lloyd Georges announcement that
Great Britain had informed General
Wrangel that any further attack by
him on the Bolsheviki would be on his
own possibility, comes almost on
the heels of Frances recognition of
and promise Of material aid to the
anti-Bolshevik leader.
Some officials and diplomats here
are of the opinion that the situation
is not quite as serious as appeared on
first examination of the Premier's pro-
rouncement. 1t was said that Great
gel and that it was entirely possible
cided to withdraw that aid at This
time. because it did not desire any
complications in the Soviet-Polish
armistice negotiations.
The action of France in recognizing
General Wrangel is understood to have
met with the approval of the American
government, and the French reply to
the American note to Italy on the
Polish Russian situation, which was
received yesterday, has disclosed that
The United States and France practi-
cally are as one in their policy toward
Russia.
State Department officials said to-
day they had received no information
as to whether the British government
intended to reply to the American note
in which the United States said it
would welcome declaration of policy
by the Allies as to the future of Rus

and also from Italy still is expected
however.
