LEAGUE OPENS
FARLEY; FACES
BITTER DEBATE
Failure of Arms Conference
Will Bring Censure to
Larger Nations.
BY HENRY WOOD
United Press staff Correspondent


GENEVA, Sept. disarmament,
subject Of two widely advertised
conferences. in Geneva during the
last year, once more comes to the
fore with convocation today of the
eighth annual assembly of the
League of Nations.
The virtual checking of League of
Nations hopes for disarmament with
disagreement of the Leagues
preparatory disarmament commits
sion, and complete collapse of the
three power naval disarmament con-
ference by President Coolidge, has
caused the League to be confronted
with a serious crisis in one of the
most fundamental matters for
which it was created.
Bitter Debate Forecast
The situation is expected to arouse
a bitter public discussion from the
assembly's tribune in which the
larger nations that have been re-
sponsible to date for the failure of
all efforts towards disarmament
will come in for frank and open
criticism by the smaller nations of
the League.
Germany and the other ex-enemy
states, all of whom were disarmed
under the peace treaties, but with
the general stipulation that this was
only step towards general dis
armament, will take the lead in de-
claring that the League has failed
in its greatest mission.
Prepare for Meeting
It is expected that final directions
will be given to the Leagues prepar-
atory disarmament commission
which is now scheduled to meet
again ona Nov. Is.
Disarmament, however, will be
only one of about thirty questions
on the agenda of the assembly this
year.
? Not the least interesting of the
remainder is what the League is
going to do about the Chinese rep
resentation on the council Last
year China was elected to a two
year seat on the council. The with
drawal by the Pekin government of
all its foreign representatives, owing
to lack of finances, has left this
place vacant.
Must Name New Members
The assembly slso must elect
three new council members to Sue
coed San Salvador, Belgium and
-Slovakia, who last year were
elected for period of one year

only. Cuba is considered the likeli-
est successor to San Salvador, while
Greece is a strong candidate for one
of the European seats.
The assembly will also have be-
fore it the ticklish control of traffic
in alcohol and spirituous liquors
shall come under the jurisdiction of
the league as do the opium, harm
full drugs, white slave and obscene
literature traffic.
Almost equally important will be

sented to the assembly on the pres
ent status of slavery.

sailed out Of New York harbor early
today. bound for France ana the
memories it holds for the two million
Americans who crossed under far
different conditions 10 years ago.
Aboard the Leviathan, and leading
the Second Expeditionary Force as
he led the First, was Gen. John J.
Pershing. And with him were many
officers and men whose outfits wrote
an indelible page in American his.
tory, from Cantigny to the Argonne.
Carrying doughboys was NO nov.
city for the giant Leviathan. Dur
ing the war she carried thousands of
them In record time through the sub.
marine zones of the Atlantic, She
was stripped then for grim business.
and doughboys were packed beneath
her decks like Sardines. But in the
10 years that have rolled by since
the war, the big liner, like most of
her passengers today. has prospered
somewhat and been dressed up. She
steamed out Of the harbor in the
brilliant sunshine. more like a float.

port OF 10 years ago.
Tribute was paid the late Prssi-

Two hundred high officials Of thu

General Pershing praised Bakers
courage and declared that the for.

Baker had given him his complete
confidence during the war,
