the intention Of terminating it, it shall remain bind
ing until the expiration Of one year from the day on
which either Of the high contracting parties shall have
denounced it."
It was the general opinion Of the premiers and
many diplomats interested in the subject that the let
to the League Of Nations in July 1920, admitting that
the treaty was not in conformity with the ~eonstitu-
ton of the le.Ele, constituted a formal denuneiaton
OF that treaty and so certain were the premiers Of
their ground that some of them 1~ourneyed TO London
TO Law their views before the crown. It is understood
that practically all Of them were against a renewal OF
the treaty as il now reads, and the decision OF the
lord chancellor simplifes the situation for it affords
ample time for the dominions to reach definite con-
illusions, through conference and discussion.
In short, the British government, accepting the de
cision Of the lord chancellor, has found it the part of
expediency to disregard the League of Nations in the
matter in controversy and would appear to have
to postpone. what may yet be an embarrassing posi-
ton. Article 20 Of the league covenant reads:
"The members Of the league severany agree that
this covenant is accepted as abrogating all obligations
or understandings inter sc which are inconsistent with
the terms thereof, and solemnly undertake that they
will not hereafter enter into any engagements ineon-
sistent with the terms thereof. In case any member
league, have undertaken any obligations inconsistent
with the terms Of this covenant, it shall be the duty
of such member to take immediate steps to procure
its release from such obligations"
In July, 1920, Japan and Great Britain are said to
have admitted that their teaty was inconsistent with
the league covenant. In July. 1921, the lord chan
cellor declares such admission not to have been de-
the league covenant declares to be the plain duty of
both nations, Ito take immediate steps to procure its
release from such obligations" Thus is the spirit OF
the league covenant once more violated.

A R PLAN.

The presidents action in inviting the principal and
allied powers to a conference respecting disarmament
and Pacific problems marks the return of the Amer
lean government to its place of leadership in world
diplomacy. AL of the powers have accepted the
presidents invitatisn, excepting Japan. The scope of
the discussion as outlined by the president contem-
plates not only naval disarmament, but military re-
duction as well and all other problems and questions
affecting the relations of the powers invited.
This is u comprehensive plan of establishing peace
and amity among the principal nations of the world.
1t goes farther than any proposal heretofore made
by any power at interest. 1t is designed to settle is
sues, which if left unadjusted would result in mis-
understandings, strained relations and possibly war.
The cordial approval and prompt acceptance of the
presidents suggested conference is gratifying, even
with Japan's absence from the high council. It is
believed that after further enlightenment on the OBJ
jects to be attained and due deliberation Japan will
with the other powers and send representatives
TO the gathering which will be held at Washington.

NOT II TIME

"The head of a large organization declared the
other day" says Forbes Magazine, ''that he had de-
cided to stop advertising because the amount of bust
ness derived directly from it was not satisfactory. He
received this reply: Are the orders coming in from
your statesmen satisfactory at PRESENT. He admitted
hat they emphatically were not. Are you going to
lay off all your salesmen?' he was, asked. Certainly
aot,' he replied Indignantly, We've got to have our
.uen out to keep in touch with the trade Yet he had
iecided to stop the very thing which keeps his COM
public in a far more comprehensive way than his sales
men can possibly do. 1t is just possible that he will
low change his mind.
"The time to stop advertising is not when orders
become extremely difficult to land and when plants
sorely need business to keep them going. If an am
bilious advertising program can increase the percent
age of production even moderately, it thereby re-
it reduces the number of employees that have to be
laid off, and this ought to be a consideration of the
first moment in times like these.
Don't sit back. Sit up. Don't give up. Go to it."

FISH OR CUT BAIT.

The railroad labor organizations are engaged in a
referendum to determine whether they will accept the
wage reductions ordered by the Railroad Labor Board
or strike, The result is to be announced September
l. The elaboration with which the vote is being con-
Quoted indicates that the labor leaders are giving most
careful thought to the problem. They know that with
the present high cost of rail transportation shippers
are either Withholding their shipments or are consion-
ing them to carriers by water. The railroads simply
cannot survive unless they regain most of the bust
ness they have lost. 1t is a case with the employees
of accepting reductions in wages or of facing a shut
down of the roads, with consequent entire loss of en-
ployment.

REDUCING THE oRc

By the end of the present week the reduction in
the working forces of the two large local refneries
will have reached approximately two thousand men.
The occasion is simply one of retrenchment to be ex-
peeted from business concerns which face a depressed
market, adverse business conditions, high labor costs
and freight charges and surplus stock.
The local market for refinery products is limited
by meagre population. The market in competition
with more distant refners is closed by reason of
freight rates. The stocks on hand have been piling
up for the reasons named. Repairs and extensions
are largely cared for. for the season, and force re.
auctions are the natural thing A complete shut
down of operations would occasion no surprise.
Two things must occur before resumption of the
