League drafted a new white slave
convention, which aims to strengthen
the various safeguards against TINS

questions of international health

Much importance is attached to
these, particularly Of the reconstitu-
ton OF the epidemic commission
which has fought typhus in Poland
so well, because of the possible cpl

the Armenians in Ciiicia and the
protection of minorities in Jugo-

appointed for the free city OF Dant-

Ihe economic blockade, as a mea-

Not least of the Councils duties
is the determining of questions to be
submitted to the Permanent Court
of International Justice, which u
Mr.. Root helped SO materially to set
Up.
Mr.. Harding has been keen, in his
utterances, for an international
gathering that acted rather than
talked. Here he has it. The league
is doing holder and more difficult
things than the Disarmament Con
ference has heard of. 1t Is doing
them in the Council, and also in h
Assembly, which Is generally looked
upon as the more important branch.
1t is doing things that five or nine
or any other limited number of ma
lions could not do, but which u
be done, If done at all, by all the
nations.
With such an institution in exis-
tence, what could Mr.. Balfour do
other than to intimate that there
was no need for duplicating 1t by
recurrent meetings of the Washing
ton conference, and to suggest cour-
teously that the Harding Association
of Nations be let slide into a quick

Secretary Is right-in saying that ma

they urge, the whole science of con-

scierce which has enabled the

tary seems to have taken in his COL

lonely position where the c~onserva-

from several different directions. and

proposal needs but to look at the
Iagenua of the Council of the League
OF Nations, which opened it's sixteenth
session yesterday, the second ami
versary or the founalng OF the
League. That tells the story OF what
the League IS doing and how feeble
IN comparison, would be periodical
meetings of the Disarmament Con
ference.
instead of dying, as its critics pre-
dicted, the League steadily grows.
1t now has fifty-one members, with

But it a's) wants the forests them

say, is : casse of demanding the hide

whole contention is a minor one, a
smoke screen to hide the real issue.
At first it looked as though the

where its enemies have a better
chance to attack it, and its friends

The Alaska forests are a special
phase Of the question, which will be
taken up in a future Haskin Letter.
The main fact. which this article
aims to set forth impartially, is that
the transfer is intended to be, and
will be tC some extent If it takes
place, a change of policy toward the
national forests from that of scien-
tific conservation in the Roosevelt
tradition in the direction OF free

that Secretary Fal would have
charge of the forests, in view of his
expressed policy with regard to all
natural resources seems sufficient
PROOF OF this.
