Council Approves Resolution
Condemning Germany for
Treaty Violation.
Copyright. 1885. by United Press)

GENEVA, April 1.-THE League
of Nations Council today approved
resolution rebuking Germany for
violating the Versailles Treaty and
providing for committee to study
the question of imposing penalties
on future treaty violators.
Denmark abStained, because
France, Great Britain and Italy
joint sponsors of the resolution
would not soften the condemnation
of Germany for violating the treaty
in decreeing compulsory army serv-
ice and inaugurating a military air
force.
Those who voted for the resolu-
ton we're:
Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Spain
Turkey, Italy, France, Great Bri-
tain, Russia, Poland, Czechoslovakia
Australia and Portugal.
Thus there was a Is to vote and
in the name of the 81 nations be-
longing to the League, scattered
over all the earth's surface, Ger
many's action was formally con-
demned.
Maxim Litvinov of Russia, who
wanted stronger condemnation and
stronger penalties, made a last
minute effort to amend the text.
The Allies opposed him. He wanted
the resolution changed so that not
only European but all treaty viola
lions should be punished. He seemed
to be thinking Of Japan.
ct is the phrase "the peace of
Europe" which limits the effective
ness of the resolution.)
Litvinov accused Germany of
cherishing hopes for revenge and
conquest in his speech.
"All states which love peace have
the right to arms to protect their
security" he said. But should arms
be granted to a nation which not
merely is seeking revenge but also
is cherishing unlimited territorial
ambitions?"

PARIS RELEASES
AMERICAN SPIES
Couple to Be Deported in
Secret to Balk Possible
Gang Vengeance.
Copyright. 1895. by United Press

tCopyrlght. 1888. by united Press)
PARIS, April 17.-Marjorie Tilley
Switz, VaSsar graduate and intel
lectual spy, was freed today by the
French government, which, in return
for the release of herself and her
aviator husband, Robert Gordon
Switz received evidence against 81
of Europe's most notorious spies in
an international ring.
The American couple, faced with
potential vengeance by the gang
they betrayed, probably will be de-
ported secretly.
They had made, during the l6
months of Imprisonment in which
they had been kept apart and ques-
toned separately, "a full confess
sion" of the conspiracy, and had
admitted that Switz, whose first
contact with the rings agent was
made at Long Island airport, had
risen to become co-head of the
espionage headquarters in Paris.
They admitted obtaining valuable
documents and pictures of French
military defenses.
The name Of the country-or
countries-for which they worked
was not revealed, but both Moscow
and Berlin were reported involved.
Contradicting earlier reports that
Mrs. Switz worked "for the thrill
and excitement" and that she and
her young husband received very
little money, it was revealed today
that they got lavish expense money
and salaries. Mrs. Swift, for in
stance, received 10000 francs (cur-
rently $5940), officials said.
When today's trial ended, with
freedom for the Switzes and sem
fences ranging from three years to
five years for others, including two
young mothers, the Americans were
returned to the damp, grim prison
where they have been secluded for
more than a year, to pack their
belongings.
I'VE are going to rest somewhere, +"
said Mrs. SwitZ. But we have no
plans now"
