LEAGUE COMPROMISE
PROPOSAL CREDITED
in ENDING QUARREL
Resolution Deplores Assassina.
ton Of King; No Dissent
ing Votes Cast
TACTFUL NOTE ASKS PROBE
Both Nations Appear Satisfied
After Studying Draft Of
Agreement

Geneva, Dec.ll.-(PeA threaten
ing Yugoslav- Hungarian quarrel was
ended Tuesday and the agreement
hailed by Geneva statesmen as q
notable triumph for the League Of
Nations.
Especially gratifying to them was
that 1t followed closely the removal,
under league auspices, Of another
European war threat" This was the
Saar basin territory plebiscite, on
which q Franco financial
agreement was made last week and =
solution reached on the difficult
problem Of policing the territory dur
ing the vote.
Both Hungary and Yugoslavia at q
session Of the leagues council last
night approved q resolution "de.
ploring" the assassination Of King
Alexander Of Yugoslavia at Marseille.
Not . dissenting vote was cast.
Worth Of League Seen
Hungary was asked In q tactful
way to take punitive action against
any authorities whose capabilities
have been established" and to COM
municate to the council the meas
ures which 1t takes to this effect"
Both Yugoslavia, which had
charged Budapest with completely in
the assassination by harboring ter
rorists, and Hungary appeared salts
fled.
Statesmen Of major European
powers were vastly relieved when the
government at Budapest, after study
ing . draft Of the agreement, in
structed its representative to vote
for the resolution"
Diplomats here said the agreement
proved that nations may make con-
cessions to the league which they
would find difficult to make directly
to the government with which it
was at odds.
The League council Tuesday ad.
vanced the date for the opening OF
its January session to enable 1t to be
ready to function before and during
the Saar plebiscite.
The council members decided to
assemble January II.
The plebiscite will be held Janu-
ary Is.
Plans progressed for dispatch Of
the international force to patrol the
Saar territory in connection with the
voting. An army Of $500 men is con-
templated to be composed Of $500
British Tommies-1, 800 Italian Cara
hinieri 2OO Dutch Marines and $50

country's history.
Five hundred experts who applaud
