While the League of Nations meeting got under way Mon day with mucbj ringing of bells, unfurl ing of flags and delivery of speeches, the real dominant Influence of this first session of the world's "board of alder men" was not to be found in any of the j nations represented, but rather, in, the i vacant chair." In other words, the absence of America from the sessions of the league Outweighs the presence of the other world powers. - .All indications are that the assembly will either deliberately, or inevitably, follow a policy of marking time until the United States indicates what its future policy , under Republican administration will be. It is generally admitted that the future of the league,, as well as its activity, is extremely limited unless America Joins in hearty participation.

ERLEVHUE GETS CLEAN BILL After an investigation ; lasting three days, Health Officer Dr. George Parrlsh this afternoon re ported a clean bill of health in the case of the Waverly Baby home, whereone child h i died Saturday night with no report made to the health bureau. Parrish declared that the 37 cases of illnes now pre valent at the home are- all mild, giv ing no cause for a: arm. "Notoriety given the home because of the prevalence of disease arises solely from the laxity of officials and physi cians in not reporting cases of disease as the. law requires," Dr. Parrish said. JThe general phslcal condition of the institution Is good, showing a marked improvement in the last. year. I find that only one death has occurred at the home since June 1, a remarkable fact considering the number of babies cared for. . : Dr. Parrish said doctors and other at tendants at the home had Informed him they had neglected t report , cases of Illness only because they were of such trifling moment that they did not con sider it worth while.4' The health officer suggested that as an economic measure,. th control of the home be transferred to the medical de partment of the University of Oregon, but Mrs. T. C. Allison, president of the board, announced that control would re main as-it has, considering the mod ernization of methods and the expense tuieuuy incurrea. 12 Kansas City Coal Dealers Summoned - Kansas City, Mo..

New York, Nov. 16. The Skinner & Eddy Shipbuilding company of Seattle, John F. Blaine, former emergency fleet corporation agent at Seattle, and C. O. Yoakum, in charge of the Pacific coast division of supplies and sales at Portland, were frequently mentioned in con nection with alleged irregularities of the shipping board in testimony given today before the congressional investigating committee by Wil liam R. Morton of Brooklyn, for 18 months one of the chief investi gators of the shipping board. Morton's testimony veered the investi gation to the Pacific coast, where, he said, manipulating of contract had cost the government hundreds of thousands, possibly millions, of dollars. Speaking of so-called government losses, Morton cited a case of alleged switching of a contract for a better one by the Seattle Construction & Drydocc company, whereunder this concern, he charged, profited "to the extent of $143,- 000 above the sum it would have ob tained on the original contract on . one ship alone." TWICE PAID $8$,000 He said the Skinner & Kddy Ship building company was twice paid $623, 000 for materials and that while a dis pute claim on $287,000, charged for 'overtime on old jobs was before the Emergency Fleet corporation, the gov ernment advanced Skinner & i,day $9,000,000 to proceed on 20 new ships," although the books of the company naa never been audited by, the government," the witness said. Morton charged that John F. Blaine, Emergency Fleet corporation agent at Seattle, was paid- $500 every 15 days by the Skinner & Eddy company and a $25,000 annual salary by the Seattle Drydock company. "Blaine was Indicted, but the case came to nothing, as in all other cases we rounded up." ne said.

Crown Prince Hirohito of Japan will leave this country early in 1921 for a 10-months' visit to the United States, Europe and India, shattering all precedents in Japan est court life. It is definitely announced also that the marriage of the future ruler of Japan will take place In the autumn of 1921, probably immediately after his return from America. This Is the first time that a future emperor of Japan has visited Europe or America and it is taken by business and commerical circles to mean a definite departure from one of the old traditions of court life. The prince was active in the entertainment of Carol, crown prince of Roumania, when the latter visited here last summer. , One of the reasons the crowa prince is go ing to Europe is to repay the visit of the Roumanian crown : prince. The itinerary and other details of the en tourage has already been arranged by the imperial family and; the state ad visers.

Lake, Assigns Lane to Vernon and Takes in Vancouver, B. C. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 16. (U. P.) The franchisee of the Salt Lake club of the Pacific Coast league will be placed iri Vancouver, B. C, in 1-921; Walter McCredie, manager of the Portland Coast club, will be placed at the head pf the Seattle cluti, and Bill Lane of the Salt Lake club will go to Vernon as the busi ness head of that club, according to unofficial announcement here to day, following the close of the con ference of minor league magnates. While the details of the biggest switch of recent years in minor league base-; ball have not been made public official ly, the facts are so well grounded that minor league magnates, refusing to affirm the report, do not deny it. The source of information makes the an nounced changes semi-official. McCREDlE ON WAY HOME Those most affected by the switch, McCredie, Lane and Robert Brown of Vancouver, have departed for their homes on the west coast, and efforts to get into communication with them have failed. Coast league cities may look for official announcement of the switches with their separate arrivals, in all prob ability. - Brown made the trip to the Kansas City meeting in the company of Mc Credie and Klepper of Seattle. He is free in admitting that he has been after a Coast league berth for the last year and the fact is well known that he tried desperately to get a franchise shortly before the opening of the 1920 Coast sea son. SALT LAKE EXPENSIVE Further, it is well known that Coast magnates have long desired to eliminate Salt Lake from their roster, because of the large transportation expense. With both Portland and Seattle in the circuit, Vancouver solves the problem probably better, than any other city could do. , The reported replacement of BUI Els- sick at Vernon by Lane is probably the outgrowth of the past f eason's investi gation or that cluo on gambling charges.
