Inclusive Pact.
BY the Associated Press.

GENEVA, Switzerland, May 2.-Dtf-
ferences of opinion regarding the KEEL
logg pact among Latin American coun-
tries were paraded today before the
League of Nations committee on arbi-
tration and security, which is consid-
ering a general treaty for strengthen
ing the means for preventing war.
During a discussion of the British
proposal that terms of the treaty recog-
nize the existence and value of the
Kellogg pact, the Uruguayan represen-
tative, A. de Castro, intimated that he
regarded the British proposal as an at
tempt to force the Kellogg pact upon
Uruguay.
Senior de Castro announced that his
country would not be party to the
proposed treaty If it mentioned the
Kellogg pact.
Uruguay and five other League MEM
bers and Brazil are not signatories to
the pact, he reminded the committee.

LEGION ASSAILS
j. S. PRINTER

Protests against the alleged un-
fair attitude Of Public Printer
George H. Carter toward veterans
a. contained in q resolution
adopted at q meeting Of the
Vincent B. Costello Post Of the
American Legion last night.
In the discussion prior to the
drafting Of the resolution, Carter
was bitterly assailed for the
treatment he is declared to have
Eaeted out to former service men.
I It was asserted that 10 war
veterans have been sumnarily
dismissed from the printing office
within the past month, although
no fault had been found with
their work. One of these men,
whose name was withheld, was
said to have five small children
and to be trying to buy his home.
Copies Of the posts resolution
will be forwarded to Carter and
to the executive committee Of the
department. 1t is hoped that
the latter group will place the
matter before the next convention
OF the national body.
Carter has recently been under
fire for methods used in his at
tempt to suppress gambling by
employees of the printing office.
In one case he added an hour a
