Geneva, SwitZerland June fl tP) Brazil has resigned from the league of nations. Notification of this step, received by cable today from Foreign Minister Pacheco at Rio Janeiro. created consternation in league circles.

 League officials, basing their opinion on Ambassador Mello Francos speech in which he said he would await the final report of the council reorganization con- mission, had been confident that the Rio government would not take the final step until the Eu- ropean chancelleries had the op- portunity to try diplomatic negou- ations.
 Planned to PIacate Brazil
 The powers planned to placate Brazil and Spain by promising them support for reelection as non-per- manent council members, thus giv- ing them. in effect if not in name, permanent membership.
 League officials still hope that the entrance Of the new Brazilian president Washington Luis, this fall may bring a change in the Rio governments policy as carried on by President Bernardes and his foreign minister. Senor Pachecho.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.--Ameri-

This represents the concensus of
opinion in Washington, pro-court and
anti-court alike. The irreconcilables
are elated over the refusal of the pow

which states that the world court may
not render an advisory opinion in any
case in which the United States has
or claims to have" an interest, with
out the consent of this government be-
ing specifically given.
The pro-court forces are correspond

If the powers abide by the decision
reached at Geneva-and there is every
reason to believe they will-the only
way the United States can enter the
court is for President Coolidge to re-
submit the question to the senate.

RAIL MEDIATION
BOARD MAY SOON
Get SHOW DOWN
P. r. r. Company Union
The Big Issue
Especial to The Daily wOrkerJ

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-(FP)--
Five members of the board of media
ton provided by the Watson-Parker
railway act and appointed by Presi-
dent Coolidge to handle disputes aris-
ing between rail management and
rail labor are busy IN various parts
Of the country, clearing the ground of
minor difficulties. The big problems
have not been approached closely.
No Big Issue Settled.
In the offices of the rail unions and
the railroad companies the labor rep
resentation issue has not been brot
to settlement. Both sides wait for
a test case involving the standard
rail labor unions and some of the big
roads that have fought these unions
in past years to come to the board
for its Interpretation of the law"
which is the technical name of one
Of its opinions.
Pennsy Keeps Company Union.
Union men are looking for a strug-
gle involving the Pennsylvania lines,
where the company union is still re-
ported submissive to President After
bury and the company detectives
still active in spotting and removing
trade union organizers. The Machin-
lists grand lodge has issued a circu-
lar invitation to its membership to
send in statements Of cases in which
union men have been Disseminated
against by rail bosses for union mem
bership or union activity.
When the facts are in hand the
Machinists will demand that the COM
pany join it in creating a board Of
adjustment. II the company replies
as it is expected to reply-that ma
jority Of its shopmen refuse to af-
fliate with the trade union and are
represented by the company union
the trade union will appeal to the
federal board and that body will
have to give an opinion as to how
the trade unionists can protect them
selves when working on the Penn
sylvania.
The board will have to investigate
and lind that the Watson-Parker act
means something. Either they will
find that it means that trade union
membership shall be made safe on
hostile roads, or they will find that
the law does not protect trade union
lists. In the latter case the law will
be just another scrap of paper, and
the trade unionists will have done
with 1t.
Thus far the board of mediation
has received between go and 20 dis
putes of all kinds and is scattered
from Boston to San Francisco at the
job of mediating them. The biggest
case-the wage demands of the con-
ductors and trainmen on eastern
lines-is being handled by Chairman
Winslow. Commissioner Hanger is
in Boston, Morrow in Chicago and
Williams and Davies on the Pacific
coast.

WHAT ARE YANK
/. GUNBOATS DOING
UP IN HANKOW?
Sharp Query Sent to
Kellogg
Especial to The Daily workerl

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-News that
American marines on board the Pigeon
were wounded while the ship patrolled
the civil war zone near Hankow on
the Yangtze River, China, prompted
Dr. Harry F. Ward, chairman of the
American Committee for Justice to
China, to inquire what American war
ships were doing in that vicinity.
Wards wire to Frank Kellogg, United
States secretary Of state, reads:
Question Authority for Acts.
"The newspapers report that Ameri.
can destroyers are steaming to Han
kow, 600 miles up the Yangtze River
in the interior of China, despite in
structions by the Chinese local author
tiles for all foreign vessels to move
downstream because of the state of
civil war about that city. Other units
of the United States navy seem to be
patrolling the same river about Han
kow and United States marines have
been wounded on board the Pigeon
and other ships in the civil war zone
have been fired upon. We would re-
specially ask under what clause of
what treaty the United States claims
the right to patrol Chinese internal
waters with its warships and what
act of congress authorizes action
which is so likely to involve the
United States both in the Chinese
civil war and in possible conflicts be-
tween China and other foreign pow
ers."
Prominent Persons on Committee.
On the national committee Of the
American Committee for Justice to
China are, among others, Glenn
Frank, president Wisconsin Univer-
sity; Mrs ]. Borden Hartman, Bishop
S. ]. Mcconnell, William Allen White,
DR.. Stephen S. Wise, James H. Mauer,
president Pennsylvania State Fedora
ton of Labor, and a number of other
labor and church leaders.

his intimate friends was a former di-
vision superintendent of the service
who had been taken into the employ
of the Southern Railway as its mail
traffic manager.
Most of the big railroads have en-
ployed ex-oficials of the railway mail
service as their mail traffic managers.
Their job is the getting for their re-
spective roads as much of the mail
hauling business as possible. The
bureauracy in the government service
is not permitted to forget that railway
companies will have jobs for them in
the future IL they throw business in
the right direction.
Between Chicago and Florida a
great increase in mail traffic has taken
place in the past three years. The
ordinary and shortest route for this
haul was over the Chicago C Eastern
