LEAGUE RIVAL

Americas proposal to outlaw war
by d system OF multiIateral treaties
among the great powers of the
world likewise may scrap territorial
guaranty clauses OF the League OF
Nations covenant. DR.. Charles Perg-
Ter, dean of law at National Univer-
sity and former Czechoslovakian
minister to the United States and
Japan, declared today.
Pergler asserted, in an address
before an alI-student conferences
that q new world system Of security
is being developed by the anti-War
negotiations which may come IN
direct rivalry with the league.
Recent occurrences would seem
to raise the question whether there
is not growing up an American
system. or an American system
alongside the League Of Nations
SYSTEM" Pergler said.
THE negotiations lately conducted
for the purpose OF outlawing war,
certainly tend in that direction.
IF the American proposals are
accepted by the great powers, OF
sven some Of them. and they agres
not to resort to forcible measures
under any circumstances, there is
q grave question whether this viii
not mean the complete scrapping
to the extent provided for by tbs
prospective treaties. Of those pro
visions Of the covenant Of the
League of Nations which we're
aimed to furnish q measure OF
guaranty of territorial integrity
to European states.
"The thought is rather disquieting
10 anyone having in mind the Cen
trail and Eastern European situs'
ton, and particularly so to the
new station OF Europe.
The question ultimately may b
whether the two systems will co
operate or whether they may be
come rivals, according to Pergler
He pointed out that it would be
conceivable that the American sys
tenn in the end would prevail to
destroy the League.

WEATHER RULE.
ON WORK SEEN

Commenting on industrial fatigue
and the weather, Hygeia, the health
magazine published by the American
Medical Association, cites the results
Of an investigation in England which
shows the extent to which efficiency
decreases in high temperatures.
'sThe term spring fever says
the writer, els a recognition Of the
fact that atmospheric conditions
have considerable influence upon the
efficiency with which work Is done.
n. M. Vernon conducted . special
Investigation on the subject for the
Industrial Fatigue Reserve Board Of
London. While his observations dealt
primarily with physical work, he rs
convinced that the facts app1y just
A well to mental activity.
"The effects of high temperature
on efficiency were studied especially
in the mining industry, which EN-.
pIoys over 1000, 900 men in Great
Britain, four.fifths of whom work
underground. 1t was found that a
miner required eight minutes to fill
= half-ton tub or wagon with coal
when working under the best condi-
lions, whereas he took nine and six
tenths minutes, or 20 per cent longer
under the worst conditions. In some
mines the temperature rises fire.
uuently above 100 Fahrenheit. When
the temperature reaches this height
the efficiency Of the man is less than
one.half OF what It Is under good
temperature conditions.
'.Adr movement is important. 1t is
found. indeed. that efficiency at the
highest velocity, namely, Il feet per
| minute, may be reduced is per cent
when the velocity Is greatly lowered.
These factors were effective also in
the tin plate industry"
