Canadian Delegate Proposes Elimination of Portion
 Of League Covenant.

GENEVA, Dec. 4.-Shortly before the Assembly of the League of Ma tions opened its session today, Hon. oria Puerrydon, Argentine Minister of Foreign Affairs and delegate to the Assembly, handed President Paul Hymans a communication announc- ing Argentina's withdrawal from the Assembly.
 The action resulted from the As sembly's action this week in reject ing Argentinas proposal that all countries be admitted to the League.
 Argentinas position was support ed by Sweden and Norway but tho South American republic is the only nation so far withdrawing because of displeasure over the majoritv's decision.
 The letter at first was taken to mean that Argentine was quitting the League entirely but later the Argentine delegation told The Asso- ciated Press that their action diG not necessarily mean complete re- nunciation of League membership at the present time.
 Charles J. Doherty, Canadian Min ister of Justice, today proposed an amendment to the League covenant eliminating Article X and indica- tions were that the Committee or Amendments would ratify the pro posal.
 Belief is said to be general among the delegates that Article X, upon which most of the opposition to the League in the United States was centered, is not essential to the covenant Elimination would be re- garded here as direct bid for America's entrance into the league
