Cor win. chairman of the Yale entrance committee.
 The older alumni are reminded that for some time past the old "con- ditions" as known 10 them have been discontinued and have not been treated as hurdles which q student has been obliged 10 make up. Ability to show on the college en- trance board papers that student , knows his subjects js no less re- uured. says the editorial; but Yale today also weighs q boys school work and his general character and ambition as shown in school life, The paper sees the now ruling TO-

France Backs Poland

Paris, Feb. 13 Pt-France will support vigorously Poland's applicu- lion for permanent membership on the League of Nations council, it is stated in official circles She will also look favorably upon such in- crease in the membership of the council as will make a permanent place for south America.
 Czochoslovallia and Spain arc un- lcrstood to be candidates for pcrma- ncnt seats and the French roprcson- tatives on the council will probably favor the addition of four such places to satisfy the ambitions of all.
 Poland is regarded as certain of obtaining permanent place in view of tho fact that Gcrmanys en- trance will bring 10 the fore in the league deliberations questions il which her interests arc uppermost.

CHANCE IN LEAGUE
 MAY BE NECESSARl
(Continued From First Pagel

Europe out of the 96 members of the league, would have four per manent seats In the council. whereas Latin-America, with membership Of l9 as yet had no seat. There wero two non permanent places belong ing to Latin America on the coun- ell, but the hazards of election might cause the loss Of these.
 When 1t was conceivable Latin America would be without any votes whatsoever in the council This would be fatal to the league as it would wreck it's international char aCter.
 Some suspicion is reported 10 have been aroused in London that Sir Austin Chamberlain. the British foreign secretary. was given some sort of promise to Premier Briand of France favorable to the aspira- tions Of Spain, Brazil and Poland for permanent seats on the council The Liberal Press is said to be showing anxiety with regard to the governments policy on the premises and that this has been heightened by the cvasiyc answers of Sir Austen made in the hucc of commons on the subject.
 While Germany is said to see no reason 10 believe that there can be , any doubt to her right to seat, she
 Is seeking 10 be informed whether tn council will award seats to other nations in addition to Germany. If Germany Is denied a seat she will immediately withdraw her applica- ton, and it is said she considered herself at liberty to reconsider her future action should scat be awarded to some other nation not now a member of the council.

 The miners will go back 10 work under a five year contract at the old wage scale. Optional arbitra. ton is provided, in case dispute arises over wage adjustments. The union leaders claim this is a victory for them. They have opposed the form of compulsory arbitration, pro- posed by operators.
