Progress Is Made
In Preparing Agenda
For Armament Meet

LONDON, Sept. S.-Preliminary
work in drawing up the agenda for
the conference on limitation Of arnla-
ments to be held in Washington next
November, is showing considerable
progress, it is declared by the Lon
don Times. This work is so far adj
vanced, the newspapers says, that it
is possible to begin informal con-
versations between the powers to be
represented in the conference re-
garding the exact definition and limi-
tation of the subjects to he discussed.
The newspaper understands these
conversations will begin as soon as
representatives of the interested pow
ers return to London, and hope is
expressed that they may rapidly lead
to favorable results so that the main
features of the agenda may be de-
cided upon by the time the Japanese
mission leaves Toxic for Washing
ton.
In urging quick action, the Times
says editorially: "Since the agenda
will mean so much, it will be relief
to the world soon to know that it
has been settled 1t is a satisfac-
ton to be able to announce that pre-
liminary conversations will begin
soon, and that in some quarters they
may have begun already"

Baptists Hope Board
Will Consider Plan

NEW ORLEANS, Sept San
nouncement of the formation Of a
syndicate to underwrite the purchase
Of site for the proposed 100000
Baptist hospital and the introduce
ton Of an ordinance before the COM
mission council granting the neces-
sary permit for the construction of
the hospital will be urged as the
basis for reopening negotiations with
the Baptist Home Mission board.
With this backing, local Baptist
leaders and representatives of civic
organizations interested in the loca-
ton of the hospital here say they
feel sure the home mission board will
consent to reopen negotiations and
place the hospital in this city mas
much as the Southern Baptist con-
vention has twice voted in favor of
New Orleans.
The home mission board, at a re-
cent session in Atlanta, declined to
reopen the question, declaring this
city had failed to provide suitable
site for the proposed institution.

SOUTH AMERICANS MAY
WITHDRAW FROM LEAGUE

BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 8.-Rejec-
ton by the assembly of the League
of Nations of amendments to the
covenant Of the league proposed by
Argentina may be followed by the
withdrawal from the league Of certain
American republics. it was learned
here in reliable sources. Belief is
expressed that Chile will be among
them. Argentina withdrew from the
first assembly when her amendments
were not accepted
Reports from Geneva stating that
the committee on amendments had re-
jected the one proposed by Argentina
providing that all sovereign states
should be members of the league I'M
less they voluntarily abstained from
membership were commented upon
by Foreign Minister Pueyrredon last
night. He said this action by the
committee undoubtedly meant rejec-
ton of that particular amendment by
the assembly. and that such action
would result in the absolute and per-
manent separation of Argentina from
the league.
The foreign minister declared the
action of the committe did surprise
him.
When the Argentina delegation
withdrew from the assembly last
year." he continued, Il was sure
1t was goodbye IOr SOOu Tlepfe-
sentatives of allied powers, how
ever, told me they would consider my
amendments at the next meeting Of
the assembly, and, of course, we
could not withdraw from the league
until such consideration had been
given. I knew the allies never would
accept them, SO since then we have
simply been waiting outside the door
of the league until formal action was
taken. The action means the separa-
ton of Argentina absolutely and PERI
manently, from the league"
Senator Pueyrredon declared the
league was dead" explaining he did
not believe it could survive under the
present un-democratic system, Of or
ganization, in which there is an
Of duty, but not an equality
of power"
"This distinction is not conducive
to harmony and cooperation among
the members" he continued. 1.-THE
possibility of new world association
of nations growing out of the Wash
ington conference for a Limitation of
ornaments depends upon the United
States. That country holds the key
to the situation"
