League Is Making
for World Peace
Cecil Tells ChicagOans

Chicago. April 16.-(By y. P)-
Forces moro serious than those which
caused the World War and other Euro
pean conflicts have been quietly settled
and the possibility of a return of gen.
eral armed conflict is removed by the
League of Nations. since it began me-
diation among world affairs, Lord Rob-
ert Cecil declared here today before a
crowd which filled Orchestra hall and
xpplauded repeatedly tho speakers
reference to the league and the work
it had accomplished.
The applause broke forth at the out
set of his address when he declared
that war is a wicked and horrible
thing required when. after outlining
the losses in men and money during the
World War. he declared that the ma
tion-wide demand for peace in England
vas the reason in that country for the
support of the league.
9TH league has rescued Austria from
financial chaos which threatened the
peace of that part of the world, RESCUED
it by as fine an exhibition of disinter-
ested International craftsmanship as
has ever been seen in the history of
the world he said. But that is the
least part of what it has DONE he con-
tinued. 1T has rescued half million
prisoners of war; fought against dis
eases coming from the east: taken a
real step forward for the suppression
of the opium traffic and the traffic in
OF her dangers: brought into operation
and cooperation an unorSaniZed mass
to eXtirpate that blot on our civilization

of the commission, acting on the
plan agreed to by the Belgian and
French prcmiers at their conference

up the minimum conditions the two
allies can accept from Germany in
settlement of the PREPARATIONS ques-
ton
The plan. which will be based on
various reports furnished by tech
nicians. the ministry of finance and
the Preparations Commission, will be
finally drafted Thursday.
The plan according to present in
dications. will be within the limits
fixed by the Allies May 5. 1921. Ger
many would pay the A and B bonds
to the amount of fifty billion gold
marks. The c bonds would not be is
sued,, but would serve as compensa-
ton for inter-Allied debts. BY the
schedule of May 5, Germany was
given a maximum period of 80 years
III which to pay. which is an average
of about 100000. 900 gold marks an
rually But as the evacuation of the
Ruhr is to be prOportionate to Ger
man payments, it would be to the
interest of the Germans. and herein
lies the new feature of the plan, to
pay as quickly as possibly, notably
by organizing an international loan.

Wide divergence of views between
the delegates of the United States
and the Allies on the question OF re-
imbursing the United States for the

land developed today. Just as it was
hoped to terminate the negotiations.
When the latest instructions re
ceived by Eliot Wadsworth. the AM

fore thet delegates this morning.
they found them of such a nature
that they desired to study and dis
cuss them among themselves before
making any pronouncement. To
give them this opportunity, Mr..
Wadsworth withdrew. Neither the
American nor Allied delegates will
say on what point the conflict rests.
but it is understood on good author
ity that it is an essential point if not
q vital one. The Allied delegates.
after considering the matter decided
to refer it to their respective gov

Supreme Court
Puts Its O. X. on
Grain Futures Act

oSiiiISlOn, April 16.-The grain
futures act placing all grain exchanges
under federal control and compelling
them to admit membership representa-
tlVes or farmers cooperative associa-
uohs. was declared constitutional by
the supreme court today, the court
dividing to >.
The law was challenged by the Chi
caso Board of Trade. acting also in
behalf of other grain exchanges, on
the ground that trading in grain flu
lures was matter strictly within the
police power of the states and cutsidc
Inc jurisdiction of the federal govern
mcnt.
When Congress. seeking to accom-
pllsh the result aimed at in the pros-
eht law, imposed a prohibitive tax on
an future trading not conducted on
contract markets, and required all
exchanges to place themselves under
government control as a conul'ion prec-
edent to becoming such r~,rleis. the
supreme court declared the law invalid
and an unconstitutional exercise of au-
tn "ity.
Promptly Congress met the Issue by
rcenactlng substantially all the rocu-
!atory features of the bill. but based
lis now exercise on its control over
Inc interstate Commerce Commission.
tcc!arlng that trading in grain futures
unless properly regulated by the feder-
al government. could be made a re-
straiht upon interstate shipments of
grain.
iraIn moving to market through
grain exchanges comes under the In
lcrState Commerce jurisdiction, as we'll
as, beef. hogs and sheep passing
through the stockyards and packing
houses. The court had decided that the
latter did not constitute an interstate
commerce, he said.
so impressed with the public interest
are transactions i'll grain. he added.
That exchanges on which they are made
necessarily become legitimate subjects
for federal supervision, including even
their membership. 1t was properly
within the functions of Congress. the
court held, not only to impose super
vision over the transaction. but to de-
line who should be permitted to engage
i'll interstate commerce.
