GENEVA, Sept. 6-The third ses-
sion of the second assembly of the
League of Nations opened here to-
day under threatening clouds. Re-
ports were circulated this morning
that the Chilean delegation would
withdraw if the question of Tacna
and africa, the disputed provinces
now being administered by Chill
should be placed on the agenda of
the assembly, as requested by
Bolivia.
These roprts were categorically
denied by Augustin Edwards, head
of the Chilean delegation who Is
said to have made the threat OF
withdrawal. Senior Edwards as
serted he had made no statement to
either newspaper correspondents or
delegates to the effect that his del
egation was considering withdrawal.
He said he would make his only
statement to the assembly when the
question comes up.
Animated conferences were held
around the Chilean delegation for
some time. Arthur j. Balfour, the
British representative, had an earn
est talk with Senior Edwards, after
which the Chilean delegation con-
ferred at some length. II. II. Karne-
beck of Halland, who was elected
president of the assembly, relieved
the tension by proposing the session
name selections for vice president
before taking up the discussion OF
Tacna and africa.
A prolonged debate on the proce-
dure to be followed ensued and oc-
cupied most of the morning session
President Karnebeek proposed the
afternoon be devoted to organization
