CzECHOSLOvAKIA
HAS AMENDMENT
TOTHE COVENANT
Proposes to Let the League
Of Nations Call Regional
Conferences Better to
Maintain Peace.
(By The Assoclntod PressJ

Geneva, May 7.-C2echoslova-
kia's proposed amendment to ar
ticle 2I Of the covenant of the
league of nations, under which the
league would be permitted TO call
regional conferences with q view
better to maintain world peace,
will come up for consideration
when the full amendments COM
mittee of the league reconvenes in
May
The sub committee reconsider
ing proposed amendments has Just
received from the Czechoslovakian
representative an explanation or
that governments plan.
In the view of C2echosiovakia,
under the present article q the
league has been able to move to-
ward the preservation of peace
only by drawing up universal con-
ventions on general principles and
for restricted objects, or TO inter-
vene only after disputes have ac-
tuaily arisen. .......
The Czechoslovakians regard 1t
as essential that the league be Civ
en- power to promote regional agree
ments permitting groups of states
to bring about better information
al understandings.
The effect of this, in the belief
of some league experts, would be
to increase the importance of the
smaller states, particularly the Off
shoots of the old Hunga-
rian empire, in settling quarrels in
eastern Europe. ........
Under the universal system IN
force as the article now stands,
the Czechoslovakian government
saws, the more complex questions
that arise between the nations are
necessarily avoiNed, and the most
acute difficulties--loeali in charac-
ter-affeeting only a certain num-
ber oil countries are not in shape TO
be handled by the league.
Regional understandings the
official announcement regarding
the Czechoslovakian proposal, says,
Tor the formation of groups aim
ing at fostering a closer and more
real cooperation between counI
tries facing common problems arc
declared to be essential to the pres
ervation Of peace but should be
arrived at only with the assured
support Of the league and In ac-
cordance with its principles"

FIRE DESTROYS
FARM BUILDINGS
WITH BIG LOSS
Farm of Chas. Roy In w.
Barnet Wiped Out In
Spectacular Blaze

A mass of smouldering ruins
was all that remained today of the
fine farm buildings cf Charles Roy
we'll known resident of West Bar
net. Fire, originating in a large
barn adjoining the house, and be-
lieved to have been caused by
spontaneous combustion, spread
quickly, the flames consuming
every building on the estate. In
addition to the property damage
there was considerable loss of
life among the stock. The total
loss is variously estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and $25,000.
The fire which broke out about
$50 o'clock Tuesday evening, was
an unusually spectacular one and
the flames that lighted the sky
for miles around drew crowd of
more than 500 spectators from var
ious parts of Caledonia County.
Automobiles were lined along the
road which faces Harvey's Pond
long distance and for several hours
the road was almost blocked au-
though the larger portion of the
crowd left before midnight many
remained until the fire had sub
sided in the early morning hours.
NeighborS for miles around are
offering their aid to the Roy fam
lily in getting rehabilitated. Prac-
tically all of the furniture except
those articles which were stored in
the ell of the house were rescued
from the blaze and is being stored
in various nearby homes. The three
children are being cared for by
kindly neighbors until the parents
are able to get settled. Mr.. Roy
was unable to state just what his
future nlans are although it was
expected that he would rebuild.
His farm was one of the finest in
the village and the buildings will
be difficult to replace for $4,000
which is an outside estimate of the
damage.
Mr. Roy, together with Archie
Pope, one of his hired men were
away at the time the fire broke out
having gone to East Cabot on a
haying expedition. He was on his
way home and had reached South
Peacham when he noticed the
glare in the sky. 1t was not until
he neared the-farm that he learned
Chat it was his own property. that
was being destroyed. The other
hired man, Charles Maloney had
gone to Grange meeting and the
only persons at home at the time
were Mrs. Roy, her three children,
who were asleep and house girl,
Miss Margaret Warden.
To Miss Warden belongs the
credit for discovering the fire. Her
bed room on the north side of the
house, faces the barn and she had
just gone to her room preparatory
to retiring when she glanced out
of the window and noticed that
the barn was mass of flames. The
