The French league, upon which
the American League is to be based,
was founded in 1898 on the princi-

of Human Rights in 1889 by the
French National Assembly.

is born and remains free and equal,
and second, the aim of every po-
litical association is the preservation
of the natural and inalienable rights
Of man. These rights are the rights
to freedom, to property, to security
and resistance to oppression"
The American Association aims to
investigate thoroughly and object

PERU DELEGATE
WALKS OUT OF
GENEVA FARLEY
Action Taken When DeCi-
sion in LetiCia Case Is
Against His Nation.

BIZ Scrpps-HoUqyd Aerspopcr Alliance
GENEVA, March Following
the precedent set by Japan, the
Peruvian delegate to the League of
Nations walked out Of a meeting
Of the league council today when
decision in the Leticia dispute was
against his country.
When the council adopted re-
port assigning the disputed border
territory of Leticia to Colombia,
Delegate Garcia Calderon left the
rs1aTp Del.
This does not mean Perus with
draWal from the league" Calderon
said.
A state Of unrecognized but actual
warfare has existed for months be-
tween Peru and Colombia.
1t began when 300 armed Peruvians
seized the Colombian village of
Leticia on the upper Amazon last
September.
The small river port of 500 in
habitants and its surrounding ter
rain formerly belonged to Peru, hut
was coded to Colombia by treaty
signed in September, 1922, and
ratified in 1923.
Today's decision of the league
council, observers believed, would
mean a definite declaration of war
between Peru and Colombia.
The report gave the Colombians
authority to expel the Peruvian in
VaderS.

DUKE OF ABRUzzI is
TAKEN BY DEATH
Famous Soldier, Explorer
Cousin of ItaIy's King.

By United Press
ROME, March 18.-The Duke
of Abruzzi, famous soldier and eX-
plorer and a cousin of King Victor
Emanuel, died today in Villagio
Duca Degli Abruzzi, Italian Soma
liland.
The duke was commander-in-
chief of the Italian navy from 1915
to 1917. In the 1905, he conducted
widespread explorations, organic
ing north polar expedition and
climbing Alaskan mountains.
Several years ago the duke, visit
ing the United States, was seen
much in the company of Edith
Elkins, daughter of the late Sen
ator Stephen B. Elkins, and their
engagement was rumored, The
king refused to sanction the mar
riage, however.
In recent years, the duke had
spent much of his time in Italian
Scmaliland, where he directed
agricultural developments which
turned that region from savagery
into a prosperous farming country.
The duke was popular through
out Italy.
He was 81 years old.

Exciting Life
Negro Aid to Secretary
of State Is Reported
Writing Memoirs.

Bv Scripps-Hocard Newspaper AUidnc
XKTASHINGTON, March 10
w Eddie Savoy, the 70-odd-
year-old Negro attendant outside
the secretary of states Office, is
reported to be writing his me-
mOirs.
If so, the public may look for
some racy "reminiscences from the
pen of this philosopher, who has
tended to and taught every secre-
tary of state since the days of
Ulysses S. Grant.
Eddie, a short, stocky man with
an oxford preciseness Of language,
has had part in many exciting
episodes.
1t was he who carried walking
papers to the Spanish ambassa-
dor upon the declaration of war
against Spain.
Some years later he performed
the same service for Won Bern
storff, the German ambassador.
And the latter, abandoning his
rigid, Prussian role in the pres
ence of dark fate, broke down and
bemoaned the destruction of his
hopes to keep Uncle Sam from
lining up against the central
powers.
If one prefers more ancient his
tory, Eddie can describe in vivid
phrases the good old days when,
as a youngster he helped out as
extra boy at the New York re-
ception held by Hamilton Fish,
President Grants secretary of
state.
Prohibition was not dreamed of
then, and the eggnogs and rum
punches then poured and now
eulogized by Eddie recall a more
free and dignified America.

CLOSE GUARD
TO Be KEPT ON
PRICE INITIATION
Temporary Boom Will Not
Cure Ill, AdminiStra-
ton Realizes.

By Scripps-Horard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON. March 18.-Price
imitation has started in the COM
modify and security markets of the
country.
Administration # and
economists are watching develop
ments closely today to gauge the
actual dollars-and- jobs results OF
the renewed public confidence
engendered by the Roosevelt pro-
gram Of action.
The Roosevelt administration
drive on the depression has two
main phases:
l. To restore and maintain pub
lie confidence and improve the gov
ernments credit. So far this effort
has been extremely successful, judg-
ing from the bank developments,
the minor stock market boom, end
the high premium on long term
government bonds.
2. To provide remedy for sick
business and an impoverished people
by providing purchasing power,
which means jobs, relief, and better
prices for farm products.
Stimulant to Prices
The new confidence in President
Roosevelt, coupled with the pentup
purchasing power following the
nine-day bank holiday, apparently
is bringing stimulant to prices of
commodities and simultaneously,
but as result of the same things,
stock market boom.
Administration officials realize,
however, that this boom will be
temporary unless basic conditions
farm prices and unemployment
are remedied. That is why the farm
bill and the forestation projects
have been added this week to the
emergency program of the admin
iStration
The place of the Roosevelt cur
rency program in the economic pic
ture is less clear. The administra-
ton persiStently has emphasized
the bank situation, interpreting its
currency expansion activities in
terms of reviving the banks.
But the emergency bank act as
provides for an almost unlimited
Initiation" of currency, if desired.
Against Currency Initiation
The administration, on the other
hand, by its anti-hoarding drive, has
taken drastic steps to force the
money back into the banks.
If this movement is carried out,
the business of the country will go
back to it's former check basis, and
the present supply of currency will
be enough to meet all needs.
In this situation, therefore, the
trend directly is against currency
imitation and any artificial skyrock-
citing of prices, with the terrific dis
tress to the middle classes which
inevitably goes with fiat money.
The increase of farm prices, fol-
lowed shortly by hikes in food prices
to consumers, which now appears to
be under way, likewise will involve
hardships for consumers, but in a
less drastic, more gradual process.
A basic price upturn Of this sort,
based on commodities, would tend
to bring a general and sustained
improvement throughout the bust
ness, agricultural and wage earning
worlds
