LEAGUE WEAPON
IS TAKEN UP
Methods Of Putting Eco
nornic Plan to Use Before
Geneva Meet.
Several Resolutions Propos-
ed For Enforcement Of
Regulations.

Geneva, Sept. 26.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press of applying
the economic weapon Of the League
of Nations against country which
violated provisions Of the covenant OF
the league came before the assembly
of the league this morning when the
blockade committee submitted its ro-
port.
The committee found it was impos-
sible for the league to decide before
hand and in detail the various steps
of an economic, commercial and fin
ancia1 nature that should be taken in
each case. 1t proposes that the coun-
Gil of the league make recommends
tons to the members as to a plan
for joint action when necessity should
arise. Interruption OF diplomatic re-
lations would first be limited to the
withdrawal of the heads of diplo-
however, that while consular relations
might be- retained, il prolonged appH-
cationscf economic pressure was nee
essary, it should progressively be
made more stringent.
In the resolutions that were pro-
posed, provision was made that GER
tain states might for af5certains pe-
riod, be released fronnstt the obligation
of blockading Another country, II the
volvej special danger to those stAts
An Important Question. A
An important aues Ezsfy ehs
assembly at the beginning OF this de-
bate was how to get action. on the
prapo positions of the commit tee saind Ell
the rule requiring unanimtt tty, his rule
notsyeta having been abrogated. Lord
Robert Cecil representing the Union
of South Africa, recently made a mo-
ton that the rule be suspended. but
1t was referred to the; constitutional
committee. 4 An effort will be made
to obtain vote on this motion before
balloting begins on the resolution re-
garding the blockade. Its believed
here that unanimity on committee
recommendations is impossible.
!. In addition to resolutions interpret
ing the covenant Of the league, the
committee proposed an amendment
to Article XVI of the covenant, which
provides for united action against a
state violating that agreement The
amendment follows: Ia s.
The council of the league will give
an opinion whether breach of the
covenant has taken place. When the
council gives such opinion, the votes
lnitted a breach OF the covenant and
Of states bringing the charge, whether
| they are members of the council un-
| der Article Nv, or have been specially
summoned, shall not be -eckoned in
determining whether or not there has
been unanimous decision"
Another Proposal.
| Another proposed amendment
reads:
The council may in <the case of a
particular member postpone the com
ing into force of any of the signature
for a specified period where it is sat
! isfied such postponen1ent will faciH-
| tate attainment Of the object of the
measures to be applied, or it is neces-
sary in order to minimize the loss and
inconvenience which will be caused

This amendment is proposed to sat

tion to blockade when the measure

Elevators ! Filling Up

The Rochdale Company's elevator
was filled to overlooking this week.
Some bins filled with certain
Varieties of wheat were so full that
it was necessary to stop hauling tor
time until cars could be secured
to ship out the surplus. Both
elevators, and warehouses have re-
ceived an immense amount of grain
and the difficulty OF securing cars
has brought about rather congest-
ed condition at times. The bulg-
ing warehouses and the continuous
stream of grain that is still being
hauled in flom the various ridges
give rather the impression that this
is going to be a comfortable
year IN the PotIatch IN spite of the
prevalent idea that hard times are
upon US.

especially in the high school, where

twice as many enrolled for domestic
science as can conveniently be &C.
commodated. The bookkeeping
