clusion of her dispute with Chile in
the agenda of the assembly of the
league of nations. Experts will be
given time in which to agree upon the
question of the competency of the
league to takesu matters of this de-
scription. This action on the part of
the Bolivian delegation was taken as
a result of new instructions of the

Raps Inaction ON DisarminE.
The debate in the assembly was re-
opened this forenoon by Delegate
Lange of Norway, who severely criti-
cised the inaction of the council on
disarmament. The Washington confer
ence. he said. represented a most
laudable initiative on the part Of
President Harding. but the intention.
he understood, was that it should dis
cuss naval ornaments only.
Public opinion, declared the Nor
Wegian delegate. demanded that the
league push efforts to secure disarma-
ment on land, but instead of handling
the question from the standpoint OF
the assembly. as that body had indi-
Gated its attitude. the council. through
the military commission of the league,
was dealing with it from the view
point of the military attaches.

try to the league. He Joined the ma
jority of the speakers who have ad-
dressed the assembly in demanding
the widest publicity for the activi-
ties of the league and for the various
questions brought before the assem-
bly,. r
