Akron Citizens Object to County
 Paying for Probe

Akron, Ohio, Aug. 25 P)-Investi- gation of the activities of Prosecu- tor G. Walter Booth in bringing suits against the Goodyear Tire and Rub Der company in the Ohio supreme court at public expense was expect ed today following announcement by two members of Summit county board of commerce, that they would begin a probe of the action at once.
 The investigation will be con- ducted, the two commissioners said, because they do not think it the bus mess Of the county to interfere in the private affairs of a corporation for the benefit of any group of stock holders.
 George Pfarr and Walter T. Akers, the two commissioners who made the announcement, said no official i notification of the suits had been re- ceived by the board and Booth. up- on his return from Columbus today, refused to give them any informa- tion concerning them.
 The group of stockholders back of the charges in the suits has re- mained mystery since the action was brought by Booth.
 In statement, Booth said the tive suits were based on charges that the Goodyear company issued manage ment stock at s1 par value in viola tion Of a statue provision of a mini. mum value of S5.
 The second suit, growing out ot the allegations Of the first, attack, the right of E. G. Winner and sever other members of the board of di. rectors, elected by virtue of power: derived from the issuance of tho stock to holders in the company.

BELGIUM NOW HAS
 CHANGED ITS MIND
Not Willing to Stand Aside for
 Poland in League

Paris, Aug. 25 Up,-The Belgium government which last year agreed to stand aside and to give it's seat on the council of the League of Nations to Poland, has changed it's attitude. It now appears from exchanges of notes that have been going on from time to time between European chanceries in an effort to solve the league council tangle.
 Belgium will demand reelection as a mi-permanent member under the new scheme worked out as a com- promise by the commission appoint ed to study the council makeup.
 Jurists of the different chanceries have been working on the council question quietly. NJ Fromageot of the French foreign office, has been in Berlin for a few days discussing the question with German officials and legal authorities.
 It is said that the compromise hoped for remains to be discovered and that the chances are that the league council and assembly will meet this September with the troublesome question of the compo- sition of the council in the same shape as 1t was when the assembly adjourned last year. The only differ ence will be that Poland will be sat- isfied with a temporary seat on the assurance that it will be made viz tually permanent by indefinite re- elections.

S25,000 Prize for First
 Crossing San Pedro Water

San Pedro, Calif,, Aug. p R}-A prize of s25,oO0 awaits the first swim mer, who successfully braves deni- zens of the deep, which range from sharks and sword fish to whales, and swims the San Pedro channel, be- tween Santa Catalina Island and the mainland, it was announced today by William Wrigley, Jr., who boost ed the purse to that sum and threw competition open to all corners.
 The feat is rated as exceptionally difficult, since at no time of the day will the prevailing tides assist pro- gress and troublesome chop is kicked up by breezes sweeping down the channel.
 An adverse pull of about one mile an hour would impede the progress of swimmers trying to negotiate the channel from the mainland and this handicap makes the crossing from this side almost impossible, in the opinion of authorities.
 Practically the only chance for a successful crossing. it is believed, lies in making the twenty mile swim from the reverse direction.
 Mir. Wrigley's previous offer was s5,000 for the crossing to be made by Gertrude Ederle.
