upon as an almost certain winner
in her match with Miss Dickinson
To the credit of Miss Dickinson
1t must be said that she has shown

Both cities resemble Belgium

An inferno is every

Yokohama vainly search the

them to their homes.
Thousands of the refu-

to leave the stricken city
are facing starvation or

There is no food available

broken.
There are a few wells

they did not understand the true

GENEVA, Sept. THE league
of nations today marked time on
the Italian Greek dispute, evidently
hoping that the interallied council
of ambassadors at Paris would
work out a solution which would
avert break between Italy and
the league. Delegates attending
the league meeting said they would
cooperate with the ambassadors to
preserve peace in southern Europe.
League representatives were en-
phatic in declaring that there is no
danger of war in southern Europe.
They said they were hopeful of a
quick settlement, but that there
might be delay in finding formula
through which the agreement could
be administered.
Italy's threat to withdraw from
the league of nations, taking with
her some South American coun-
tries. is not regarded seriously.
According to present plans of
the secretariat the league assembly
will meet next Monday. There
was no meeting OF the council
today.
Great Britain has taken the
leadership in proclaiming the com
potency Of the league to handle the
Mediterranean quarrel.
Admission of Ireland to the
league will be discussed at the next
session.
