 Describes Soldiers Complaint
 Sir George proceeds to describe what he deems is the soldiers com paint about the constitution of the kingdom: That the monarchy is not absolute enough.
 This complaint, says Sir George was freely vented after the war. when states were in the melting pot.
 If it had only been a question of the adherence of the army it might have been comparatively easy at that moment to set up an ab- solute dictatorship. The talk in bar rack rooms struck the note of un- swerving loyalty, not to the prin- ciple of the constitution, but to the person of the king"
 This barrack room gossip, ire sponsible, but significant ran on two lines, Sir George writes-"Why don't the king chuck the lot (mean- ing the politicians) and use the troops to run the country; or else, Why don't Haig go down and offer the army to the king? Wed soon show them what's what They wer.a wild words which even hot-heade ed men flushed with victory knew could never be in any sense effec- tive"
 Acknowledges Bad Kings
 Sir George acknowledges ther5 have been bad kings in England as elsewhere. but he declares the fact remains that England is in dubitably monarchical to it's mar. row. and because of this nationa instinct i've can smile smugly a communist breathings."
 Now So years of age, Sir Georg' Arthur has a number of other bio graphical works to his credit. Be sides the life of Lord Kitchener, ht wrote the life of Lord Wolsely, 1T collaboration with Sir Fredericl Maurice; translated the memoirs Of Raymond Poincare and wrot; the life of Sarah Bernhardt. H. served in the Egyptian campaign of 1882 and in the South Africar war; and was private secretary tt Lord Kitchener during the worl. war.

LEAGUE CONSIDERS ARMS PLAN TODAY

resumed consideration of a scheme for giving financial assistance to the victim of an aggression in war, or under threat of war.
 The French wished that the league council before giving aid to menaced state, should ask both dis putants if they would abide by the ruling of the council.
 For Great Britain, Lord Cecil urged this method of procedure would involve delay which might be fatal to peace.
 Peru joined the discussion when Mariana Cornejo, Peruvian minister to Paris and delegate to the assem- hiy, said he thought the whole scheme should be brought into ac- cord with the provisions and spirit of the Kellogg Briand pact and that the council should be empowered to act promptly and firmly against the ag- gressor nation.
 Delays Cecil's Plan
 The discussion over the financial aid proposal lasted so long todly that it delayed the presentation Of the anticipated British proposal on disarmament.
 Lord Cecil came prepared to of fer draft resolution which would urge the hastenins of preparatory work by the disarmament commits sion and make suggestions which are regarded as reopening the ques- tion of trained army reserves This resolution. which will now probably be submitted Tuesday or Wednesday, reads:
 The assembly, being convinced that a progressive and general re- duction of armaments is urgently needed throughout the world, ex- presses it's hope that the prepara- tory commission will finish it's la bors at the earliest possible mo- ment, and considers that in con- picting a draft disarmament con- vention it should consider how far the following principles have been or ought to be adoptcd;
 "A, Application of the same prin. ctple to reduction of limitation of personnel and material. whether of 1 land, sea or air forces. B, Limitation of strength of d force, whether by limiting it's num- ! bers, or period Of training. or both. "C, Limitation of material either directly by enumeration. or indirect ] ly by budectary limitation, or both methods.
