tention Of resigning from the

The announced attitude Of Spain
came as d shock and surprise to
League leaders. who had been under
the impression that Spain would be
willing to await action in Septem-
Der on her request for admission
to the council.
Senior Mello Franco, the Brazil
Ian delegate, today failed In an
effort to secure Latin-American sup
port for Brasil's insistence upon
being granted a permanent seat.
Several of the Latin-American
delegates announced they are under
implicit instructions to vote for the
proposed compromise, despite the
attitude Of Brazil.
After the failure Of yesterdays
appeal for a. more conciliat0ry
attitude. Premier BRAND and Sir
Austen Chamberlain today signed
a personal cable appeal to the
president of Brazil to instruct his
delegate to adopt an attitude fav-
Orable to compromise.
Representatives Of the Little
Etente have agreed to q proposal
that the seats TO be vacated by
Sweden and Czechoslovakia shall
be allotted to Poland and Holland,
but Rumania is to be promised q
nOn-permanent seat In September.
A way out of the difficulty may
be the postponement Of Germany's
entrance into the League until
September.
Premier BRAND and Herr Strese.
mann took up the question at
lengthy conference today.
France and Germany are both
anxious to preserve the Locarno
treaties and would prefer q post
ponement Of Germany's eMtry into
the League to the chance Of an
open fight in the League assembly
against Germany's admission.
The Brazilian delegate, Mello
Franco, has not thus far indicated
that he intends to make any re-
cession from his insistence that
Brazil, too, must have perma.
nent seat on the council.
The proffered resignation OF
Sweden and Cechoslovahia from
their permanent seats makes
the election OF Poland and one
other country possible.
