Three Years Of the League Of Nations Have Now
Fixed It's Character
By AUGUsTIN EDWARDS Of Chile, President.

The year Of 1922 marks a period in the lie OF
the League Of Nations, for it has shown concluslyeIy
its desire to recognize the actual state Of affairs. As
a result it tries not to create but to shape. Tire league
has found that it cannot force political growth; any
action it takes must be the result Of common agree
ment between all the members, big and little. So the
league is not so much an institution as a state of
mind. The people who, in the first enthusiasm Of
what they saw as the dawn Of a new era, wished to
clothe the league with the highest political power,

CANADIAN GOVERNMENT
OFFICER FINED FOR LEAN-
ING CAMP FIRE

World: At $3.50 a. m. Sunday Ran
ger Chartrand received a report from
Patrolman Wayland that camp fire
had been left uneXtinguished at the
ingalls, Creek camp ground and that
the party responsible for this was
headed toward Cashmere
The party which was composed of
Mr.. J. L. Jackson, Government officer.
and family Of Salmonairs, B. c., was
held up as it arrived in Cashmere at
10 a. m. Mr. jackson was placed IN
der arrest and taken before Justice
of the Peace J. A. Sanford where he
plead guilty to the charge Of leaving
a camp fire uneXtinguished and paid
a fine of $500 and costs. The fact
that there were eXtenuating -circum-
stances saved Mr.. Jackson from pay
ing the full penalty for his offence,
Ranger Chartrand states that due
to the critical situation and the pub
licity that has been given fire preven-
ton there should be no excuse what
ever for carelessness or negligence
with fires and that all forest officers
have been directed TO recommend the
limit Of the law in imposing fines for
offence which is from $1,000 to 500
or two months in jail.

YAKIMA MAN FINDS GOLD.

William Castle, of Yakima, was
here last Friday. Mr. Castle is a
miner and has been prospecting ex-
tensively in this state and in Oregon.
He had spent few days in the Blew
EFT country and located both a placer
and quartz claim and believes he
has struck something rich. He also
found iron ore in large quantities.
His gold claims are on the Peshastin
creek above old Blewett, near where
the road leaves the creek. Business
called him back to Yakima, but he
said he would return as soon as he
can and make thorough examination
Of his claims. Mr. Castle said that
he had located ten claims on the
Swauk creek, across the hill from
Blewett. but he considered that the
claims located on this side were bet
ter. He had PANIED out a nice sample
of coarse gold.
Prospecting has been carried on eX-
tensively in the Blewett section this
season and a considerable number Of
claims have been staked. Still there
is feeling though that the best has
not yet been found. Old prospectors
who have been in the district for
years and who know the country well,
say that with all the work done in
the past, much of the country has
never been examined.

BY STUART P. WEST
Copyright, 1o22-

New York, May ia genar-
ally firm tone was displayed on the
curb exchange during a greater
pair of the session today. A num-
Der of issues established new high
records. Business was larger than
in months, especially in some of the
lower priced issues. Commission
houses were active and purchased
on balance.
Oil shares were prominent with
Mexican Seaboard in excellent de-
mand. Woody made a new high
record on buying by southern inter-
ests identified with the company
on expectations of the completion
of the new wells over the week end.
The announcement that the PrOduc-
ers and Refners had taken over
Lyons Petroleum caused a sharp
rise in the latter. Cities Service
old common stock rose several
points and advances were general
in the remainder of the oils. I'M
perial Oil of Canada was one of
the exceptions, at one time, show
ing a los sof several points.
There was a better demand for
some Of the motor issues, Daniels
establishing a new high record and
REQ moving upward. The radio
stocks were in better demand with
Dubilier the leader. Philip Morris
made a new top and there was a
good demand for Profit Sharing
and Tobacco Products exports
Some of the inactive issues were
lower at one time, Schults showing
a rather sharp loss and Swift In
ternational reacting after early
fTmness. Goldwyn Pictures also
receded after advancing in the first
hour
All the mining issues shared IN
the improvement, in that depart
ment, Magma Copper was more ac-
tive than usual and rose about a
point and independence Lead con
tinUed the leader of the low pricsd
shares with a new high record.

eraI points on favorable reports re-
garding Idanha Vein Interest was
shown in Galena, which is c0ntroil-

WHEAT Is DULL;
Other GRAINS
ARE NEGLECTED.
(By Consolidated Press.)

Chicago, May 19.-Wheat trade
was exceedingly uninteresting to-
day. There was q little support
given the May and the current
month was higher most of the
time. although occasionally sharp
fluctuations were recorded when a
few selling orders caught the mar
ket temporarily without buying or
ders. Trade in the late months was
mostly local in character and prices
covered a narrow range There
was some foreign selling of Sep
TENDER early. Cash handlers re-
ported increasing consignments of
cash wheat from the country, evil
IDENTIFY forwarded to receive the
benefit of the present high prices.
A st. Louis mill was loading out IS
cars Of wheat TO be shipped to Chi
cago for delivery ON May contracts.
The milling demand for wheat was
poor and exporters reported for
eigRers Indifferent. There was
some complaint of dry weather over
Nebraska but generally the crop
situation is satisfactory.
Corn was neglected. Prices held
fairly steady. There was q little
local buying inspired by the talk of
delayed planting because of the
continued wet weather. The cool
weather is unfavorable for germi-
mating the seed. The easy tone in
wheat encouraged some selling
early. Shipping demand was poor.
Trade in oats was at standstill.
There was a little changing in evil
denee while resting orders to buy
July at 3912c were of sufficient
quantity to check the decline. The
demand for cash oats was not so
good as OF late.
Provision trade was dull and
prices were without much change.
