INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS

The League Of Nations, though
functionlng without the cooperation
of the United States, accomplished
much during the year, chiefly through
Its council, which met In Paris on
February 21 and Immediately referred
proposed amendments to the covenant
to a committee. President Wilson,
who during January had withdrawn
the American representatives from the
council Of ambassadors and the repa.
rations commission, on February %
sent to the league council strong
protest against the Inclusion Of the
island Of zap In territories subjected
to the mandate Of japan, and also
formally demanded for America a
voice In the disposal Of the former
German colonies. The council In re.
ply said II was not concerned with
the ALLEGATION OF Yap to Japan and
invited the United States to take part
In discussions concerning the Turkish
and African mandates, A month after
the Republican administration took
office Secretary Of State Hughes reit-
erated Mr.. Wilson's stand concerning
zap and mandates In general, and
later France and Italy indorsed Amer.
ica's position in the controversy over
the island, though Japan formally re.
fused TO give up her mandate. There.
after that dispute was the subject Of
long drawn.out negotiations between
the United States and Japan which
led to a treaty by which the United
States was assured equal rights In
zap and other Islands inundated to
japan.
The council Of ambassadors In Janu.
ary gave Germany more time to dis
arm, appointed q commission to pass
on Austria's economic status, decided
that Latvia and Esthonia should be
recognized as sovereign states, and
then flxed the German reparations at
226000, ,00O, 900 gold marks. payable In
annual installments, and - per cent
tax on exports during the period Of
payment. This reparations decision
created CONSERVATION In Germany and
Berlin At once began efforts to per.
Suade the United States to intervene
In her behalf. The Wilson administra.
ton made no response, but on April
2 Secretary Hughes informed Ger

countenance her escaping full respon.

the sums due In the early part Of
1922 could not be raised. And since
many economists agreed that to drive

BE- disastrous to the rest Of the world,

scenic beauty of the grounds, Is an
elm, the gift of George Stroehie,
member of the committee. II has
been planted at the southeast cor
ner, replacing tree that had to be
uprooted-
The occasion for the tree planting
was the regular meeting of the
committee, which consists of Chair
man Louis C. First, George Stroehle
and Frank Beranek. Participating
in the exercises were Supervisor
George McNabney Of Hampton and
Mont Spurn, a Civil war veteran.
After the infant elm was securely
the question arose as to a
fitting name. 1t was agreed that
the tree should have name 1t
was suggested that iHasmuch as
this was the first tree ever planted
by the committee, it could properly
be called the First tree" A vote
was necessary to make the name
official but Chairman First declined
to cast his ballot.

the number who finally oppose the
measure dwindles. There would
seem to be a majority who would
shelve the measure if they could
do so without a record vote, but
the senators who are up for re-
election this year are bound to pur-
sue aggressive tactics and keep the
bill before the senate Men like
Senator McCumber, chairman Of
the senate finance committee, and
Medill Mccormick, who are condi-
dates for reelection. will not allow
the measure to slumber, and it
doesn't take large group in the
senate to compel action of some
kind Once the bill is voted upon,
a majority is assured.
Mellon May Quit.
Whether a two-thirds vote can be
in the senate to override
a presidential veto will depend
upon the development OF public
sentiment after the passage of the
bill and an expression from the
president. So far as the house is
it can be counted upon
to pass the bill by a two-thirds
vote if necessary. The vote OF 500
in favor of the measure recently is
a clear index Of the strength of the
bonus bill in the face of announced
presidential opposition.

SHIPPERS OF EGGS
HEAR EXPERT TALK

E. T. Murphy OF Chicago, head of
the eggs and poultry department
of the Illinois Agricultural associ-
alton held demonstration in Port
Byron today. showing how eggs are
to be candled, graded and packed
for shipment, and also answering
many poultry inquiries.
Tomorrow a similar demonstra-
ton will be conducted at Taylor
Ridge. P. R. Edgerton, farm ad-
wiser, is cooperating.
Mr.. Murphy said today that eggs
shipped to Chicago by the cooper
alive shipping association totaled
5000 dozens weekly, and that Chi
cago commission men are paying
higher prices for the shipping asso-
citation eggs than for any other
shipments. The expense is a cent
and a quarter dozen, for the can
ding, packing and grading, he
states. this cost not including the
container.
As a result of Mr. Murphy's visits
the organization of an egg shippers
cooperative association is antici-
pated.

they can't put issues on the market

Not Sure of Veto.
Mr.. Mccormick didn't attempt to
predict what Mr. Harding would do
with the bill il it were passed by
both houses. He isn't as sure of
veto as are some OF his colleagues,
though it is evident he, like the
others, is counting upon a rewrit-
ten bonus bill. The Illinois sena-
tor declares the opposition to the
bonus will not succeed in dilatory
tactics; in fact, he says those who
are against the measure are as
eager to have it brought up and
voted upon and got out of the way
as are the proponents of the bill
He seems to think the bonus ought
not to be permitted to clog the leg

The president is committed to a
veto unless a sales tax is enacted
as a revenue producer. If he does
not veto it. he may lose Andrew

ury. But thus far he has given
every indication that he shares Mr..
