To Decide Fate of League
At Geneva Council Session
ATTITUDE OF UNITED STATES EXPECTED TO DE RULING FACTOR;
LOOK FORWARD TO DECLARATION OF VIVIANI ON AT
TITUDE OF THIS COUNTRY.
By Henry Wood
(UiiIUmI Piuhu Stuff Corruiipondcnt)
GKNKVA, June ti. - With Hie meet
ing of the council of Ihe league of
nations here today, the late of tiie
league will In all probabllltj be def
initely decided.
The meeting will be the llrst one
that has been held since President
Harding's delinilu announcement tfial
Ihe United Stales can never join the
league In lis present form.
II is expected that all of Ihe allied
powers have definitely decided upon
the altitude they wish to take as re
gal ds Ihe league and the council will
be In a position lo formulate definite
ly the league's fill in e.
Tiie fundamental (Uesllon lo lie de
cided will be whether It will be neces.
sary, advisable lo abandon entirely
the league as now established, or
whether it will be possible lo work
over Ihe covenant and the league's
present organization in such a man
ner thai they will eventually he ac
ceptable to the United States
In addition lo the tact that the del
egates on the council of all I lie allied
nations will have definite Instructions
on Ibis point from their respective
governments, It Is also expecled thai
I'm liter Premier Vlviani of France
will bo abb' lo give a fairly definite,
idea to the council whether or not the
present league can be made accept
able to the Hulled Slates. Much will
unquestionably depend upon his per
sonal observations In the United
Slates on this point.
At the same lime, there will be si
multaneously In session at Geno"t
two big commissions, on both of
which Vlviani is one of the principal
members. These are the commissions
for amending the covenant and lor
preparing definite plans for interne
t ion a 1 disarmament.
In the case Vlviani reports that the
present League organization can be
worked over to meet American Idea1)
and the council has definite instruc
tions from the different allied govern
ments to work towards this end, no
time will therefore be lost.
While Ihe amendment commission
was appointed by the league's as
sembly last December II was stipulat
ed that all proposed amendments to
be passed upon by the next assem
bly in September must be submitted
before March I'.OIli, It has already been
decided lo sidestep this restriction in
the event Ihe covenant can be made

acceptable to the United States. The
above limit has thcicfore been made
applicable only to amendments sub
milted by member states, while any
amendments submitted on behalf of
the United Stales will be lecelved up
until the very time the next assembly
meets in September
It Is expected likewise that Vlviani
will bring ronie very definite Ideas as
to President Harding's policy for In
ternational disarmament. As Vlviani
himself Is the chairman of this com
mission, It is expeeted that he will try
and shape Ihe work of thai commis
sion to meet I lie views of the United
Stales.
Aside from tlio fact that the com
ing council meeting will thus decide
the future fate of the league, the meet
ing will also be one of the most Im
portant yet held. It will he up to the
council to take some decision on Ihe
olflcial protest of the German govern
ment which has been made to the lea
gue against the occupation of addi
tional Hhino territory last March.
Hgually important decisions will
have to he taken by the council on
the question of inundates. At the last
meeting or the council in 1'ails in
March the United States filed a pro
test against the awarding of Ihe
mandates for Mesopotamia to Knir
land, under the terms of the Anglo
French agreement which would give
thesu two countries a monopoly on
Hie oil production of Mesopotamia.
.As a result of this protest the coun
cil postponed action on the inundates
111! the June meeting and Invited the
United States to send a delegate to
the coming council meeting in order
to present the American views.
A score of other Important matters
are on the program. As a consequence
the. meeting of the council is expected
lo lust, at least two weeks.
At the assembly meeting In Sen
teiuber, the league as a whole and as
it Is now consllluted will be called
upon to accept or reject whatever
steps may be taken towards working
over Hie league to meet the wishes
of the United States, A number cl
the lending personalities of the league
aro preparing projects which it is
lipped will render tho United States
participation possible. One of these
projects by Foreign Minister Denes of
Czecho-Slovakia, provides that the lea
gue be reorganized merely to carry
out certain definite, specified ends
such as the enforcement of peace
treaties.

of Wasco County-
NARK A.
We, the directors of The Dalies-Wasco County Chamber of Commerce,
representing an organization of 475 business men, grain, stock and fruit
growers and wage earners from all parts of the County APPEAL to you
not to be mislead by the highly colored circulars sent broadcast by a PORT
LAND CAPITALIST, who has received benefits from the Columbia River
highway equal to any person on its borders.
Mark A. Mayer ws smoked out from under cover of the so-called "Citi
zens' Welfare League."
Mark A. Mayer was always a leader in good road movements until he
GOT HIS roacj regardless of cost or convenience to others; after an attempt
to "hold up" the County Court for more funds failed, he at once come3 out
as a friend of the POOR OPPRESSE D.
From the first comparative table in the Oregon Voter which he has had
printed the average cost to pay interest and retire the bond issue is $3.46
per year based on the supposition that they be sold AT ONCE.
?90,000.00 of tiie $260,000.00 bond 'issue was expended for Mosier's bene
fit on Seven Mile Hill. Did Mark A. Mayer "holler" then?
If this bond issue carries approximately all of the $1,600,000.00 will, be
expended within this COUNTY. Does this mean anything to you Mr. Wage
Earner?
The Highway Commission has expended over one half million dollars
directly benefiting Mosier without any protest or direct cost to them. The
rest of the County voted for this and helped bear the expense.
Why not give Central and Soutlie rn Wasco 'County a passable highway
twelve months in the year?
