'9The proposed association of nations
has not yet been reduced to form nor
yet defined" said Senator Borah. ''But
from what one can gather here and
there it is the old League of Nations
under another name. 1t will be engag-
ed in precisely the same kind of work
and doing the same kind Of things that
were proposed by the league. It is not
what you call it but what it is that
counts.
Same Proposition
Fundamentally and in the practical
workings of the association of nations
it will not differ from the League of
Nations. l see no reason, therefore,
why the 43 nations which have signed
with the league should be asked to
abandon it and transfer their names to
an association Of nations. If we want
to go into this kind of proposition,
there is no reason why we should not
experiment with the one they have.
1T is claimed by advocates Of the
of much service to Europe If so, there
is no reason for asking Europe to scrap
the old league and try new one. IF
we are going into Europe we ought to
60 in. If We are not, we ought not to
be handing her new league every 80
days. She will likely conclude that
after the next presidential election she
would have another league. / see no
differenc whatever in joining the pres
ent league and joining another league
by new name.
Wilson's Mistake
"The United States operates under
a written constitution. Great Britain
has no written conszi tution 9E.9 OF the
arguments being put forth now in favor
of the association of nations is that
Mr.. Wilson made mistake in giving
his plan written constitution. That
we should adopt the British idea and
undertake to conduct the league or an
association of nations without any
written constitution or written covenant
whatever. In other words, that the
new association will consist of repre-
sentatives of different governments
coming together with no limitation
upon their jurisdiction or power or
authority other than at their own dis
cretion. A conclave of diplomats sit
ting behind closed doors with nothing
to direct or limit their powers, have
their own will and discretion would be
a rather interesting proposition. / am
inclined to think that if the American
peoIie CuDse d iEdSut, tueY Wli1 CHoUSe
one which has its powers defined or at
least an attempt to define them, rather
than trust their destiny to the unde-
sirable discretion of few men.
Two Leagues Too Much
"It does not appear as yet whether
we are able to have two leagues or
one league and one association or
it is to be that the league
by Mr.. Wilson will be merged
into the association organized by Presi
dent Harding. 1t will be very difficult
to get rid Of the present league unless
the Versailles treaty is radically modi-
fled, but l presume we will know more
when the matter is reduced to such
form as will enable us to
grasp it or at least to try to do so.'
Senator Borah was one of the IRE
in the senate who opposed
the League Of Nations as comprised in
the treaty of Versailles.

For two hours while the flames rose
higher than the Hotel Taft opposite, in
College street, and it was feared the
death list would be heavy. Ambulances
had carried scores of persons to the
hospitals, many were in the hotel, hun
dreds had made thir way home cut and
bruised and scorched, and spectators
told of stampede at the cry of '.fire!',
and of bodies being in heaps upon the
main floors, but when firemen were
able to enter the structure the worst
fears proved to be unfounded.
Yale Students Hurt
Among the seriously injured was
Allen Keith. Yale student, Of South
port, Conn. Five other Yale students
in the hospital are listed as seriously
hurt. They are: Louis A. Lincoln,
Mansfield, Mass; Gordon Renner, Gin

Rialto and broke into large adjoining
building occupied by several concerns.
The property loss was about $4,000.
The Rialto was remodelled from Col
lege street hall, which itself was adopt
ed for public lectures after. Plymouth
Congregational church gave it up and
moved elsewhere. Yale university used
the hall for years for lecture courses
and the medical school held it's gradua-
tion exercises in it.
Crowd In Panic
Those who escaped from the theater
told of seeing persons knocked down in
a stampede for the exits and occupants
OF the balcony jumping to the main
floor fell upon people in the seats.
The first actual description of what
happened within the theater was given
by man who escaped from the build
ing, who said that the fire. which start
ed behind the stage, spread SO rapidly
that he believed scores of persons died
in their seats. He said the aisles
were jammed and spectators jumped
from the balcony to the main floor. He
said the exits were jammed instantly.
At nine o'clock the New Haven hos
pital had taken in so injured, and st.
Raphaefs hospital there were II hurt
and one man dead. A body was visible
on a. fire escape of the theater.
Throughout the fire fighting. students
pressed close to the police lines and
tried to get through to search for
friends.
The dead. according to Medical Ex-
aminer NJ. Nj. Scarborough. were: Timo-
thy j. Hanon, 5S, broken neck. He
died before reaching the hospital and
was thought to have died from heart
disease.
An elderly woman, yet unidentified,
and young man, also unidentified.
Both bodies were found on the fire
escape.

Constantinople, Nov. 27.-(By The
Associated Press.)-Mustapha kemal
Pasha, head of the Turkish nationalist
government, has refused to receive at
Angora, his capital, the British mission

pha Kemal has directed that it be re-
ceiyed at Ineboli, small Black Sea
port. by the minister Of war and Rafet
Pasha, commander Of the nationalists'
western army.
It is reported on good authority here
that a British officer has gone to the
Anatolian frontier to arrange meet
ing between Mustapha Kemal and Brig
adler General Sir Charles Harrington.

expected to discard the considerations
of etiquette and make plain-spoken
declaration of Germanys case

fore the Reichstag committee on for
eign relations with the purpose of dis
cussing the French premier's utter
ances at the Washington conference.
The Boersen Courier demands that
