SUNDAY BASEBALL
 IS PROPOSED
bill Tn Senate Would Also Legal ize 1O-Round Boxing-House Considers Bill Amending the Prohibition Law.

Little Rock, Feb. 21.-Two bills intended to remove present restric- tons from sports or amusements in Arkansas were introduced in the upper branch of the legislature today py Senator Owens of Little Rock. One ot them would legalize Sunday base ball and the other would permit To- round boxing matches. The House passed a memorial asking Congress to pass the proposed bill prohibiting immigration for a period of twelve months.
 Just before adjournment Senator Latimer called up a bill which would change the penalty for violation of the prohibition laws from one year to from six months to three years. Senator Bogle explained that the lower penalty was an incentive to vio- lators to enter plea of guilty. There was so much opposition to the bill that its friends consented to post ponement until Tuesday morning.
 Senator Owens introduced a bill giving to cities of the first class the right to play baseball on Sunday af- ternaan between the hours of 2 and 5.
 The House and the Senate indulged Tn their first barley over a bill. The House requested the return of the Kendrick bill, making an appropria- tion for a deputy mine inspector. Senators Haley and Wilson of Union were opposed to granting the request from the House, declaring that the House has killed a Senate bill along the same line and evidently wanted this back for the purpose of putting it to a long sleep. President Cazort, who had made speech on the floor for the bill the House killed, took the floor again and advocated the return of the House measure. The matter finally went over until Tuesday in order that the senators who are inter- ested in the passage of the bill might ascertain the attitude of the House toward the measure.
 Senator Walls introduced a bill which will permit the Arkansas rail road commission to continue the in- vestigation into natural gas rates which was started with the Arkansas corporation commission before it was abolished by the legislature.

pute to the League of Nations occa-
stoned surprise in official circles and
while the government declined to dis
cuss the new situation, there was an in
timation that the Wirth Cabinet was
disappointed at the Councils inability
to reach final and equitable decision.

volved by the new procedure" a Cabi-
net official declared, "because it is cal
culated to prolong the hardships OF the
already sorely tried populace Of Upper
Silesia."
Discussing the differences between
England and France, az reflected in re-
ports of the deliberations in Paris, a
German official said:
Germany had no interest in pro
noting an actual break in the ranks OF
the Entente. She has an abiding faith
in the righteousness of her case re-
specting Upper Silesia, and is quite
willing to have the issue decided by the
Council Of the League"
There is evident some apprehension
regarding the nature of the attitude
taken by the Poles, in view of the Coun-
ellis decision. 1t is asserted they are
prepared for fresh invasion of the

PARIS, Aug 13.-The Supreme Coun-
Gil of the Allies finished it's meeting
in Paris late tonight with the diplo-
mats agreeing unanimously that, de-
spite the serious differences of opin-
ion of the last week, the union Of the
Allies is to remain stronger than ever
and to be regarded more than ever
as Indispensable
Ambassadors Harvey for the first
time dropped his reserve and said:
81 feel | have done very little-less
than nothing-in this council. I ask
your indulgence, for often wanted
very much to follow my desire to speak
and participate in the discussions.
"You must realize how painful this
was to me. But can now abandon my
reserve and emphaticaly second the
resolution stating the necessity Of the
union Of the Allies"
The Supreme Council recognized the
desperate plight of Austria, whose eco
nomic, and perhaps national, future,
depends on the action Of the United
States. through Congress. in joining
the Allied creditors in renouncing their
liens on Austria as we'll as adhering
to the plan to allow necessary credits
for the purchase Of raw materials for
Austrian industry, to which the hungry
people are looking for the means Of
earning their bread.
The Supreme Council addressed an
appeal to the American government,
as well as to Serbia and Rumania, who
are waiting for the United States to
take into cons liberation the imperative
urgency OF such a vital solution and
give its adhesion to a movement on
which the reastablishment of the eco
nomic equilibrium of Europe and the
life of Austria depend
Am bassador Harvey explained the
American delay briefly, saying that the
adhesion of the United States depends
entirely on the action of Congress.

acting president Of the executive com

sponsibility for saying when and where
the Council would meet, and asked the
secretariat to decide.
1t Is understood that France favoys
holding the meeting in Paris, but the
secretariat will explain the necessity,
in that case, of transporting a large
staff Of clerks and secretaries to
France, which it wishes to avoid. The
French probably will accept such a de-
cision.
1t was decided to-day that Leon
Bourgeois, President of the Senate,
will represent France.
1t is possible that the League Coun-
ellis session win merge into the meet
ing of the General Assembly OF the
