Early Admission of Germany Seem6
Likely Soviet Ru6sia, Having
Crushed Wrangel, Is in Strong Pe
tition— Greeks Way Restore
Constantine to Throne.
By EDWARD W PICKARD.
No sooner IkwI Hip nssenibly of the
League of Nutm: yui down to busi
ness in its fir.M meeting in Geneva
than signs of discord between tin*
groups of large and small notions ap
peared. Up to i.ate the latter lmve
the better of the argument, and the
fears of persons thought the do-
1
ings of the league would he dominated
by Great Britain. France, Italy and
perhaps Japan :i". somewhat allayed.
Indeed, the re,.-ivsenratives of those
four nations were by no means in ac
cord on all points. The Italians placed
themselves In opposition to French
propositions, and the various British
dominions did not agree with the
mother country.
I A most Interesting development of
the week was the announcement that
Spain would join with Great Brit
ain, France and Belgium in policing
the Vllna zone during the plebiscite.
This was looked on as possibly the
beginning of the organization of a
league army.
The first day, after the election of
Paul Hymans of Belgium as president
saw the opening scrap over the mat
ter of admitting Germany to member
ship in the league. The French had
objected that this subject did not ap
pear on the agenda, but Tittonl of
Italy 'declared the whole world de
manded the admission of the enemy
states and would not accept the ex
cuse that their applications had not
been received in time. Sir Robert
Cecil, who represented South Africa,
appeared to side with Tittoni.
It was decided that six commissions
should handle the work of the assem
bly. The first is to take care of gen
eral organization the second technical
organization the third the internation
al court of justice the fourtli finance
the fifth admission of new members,
and the sixth reduction of armaments,
blockade and military pressure on
covenant breaking states and man
dates.
When these commissions* were
named, on Wednesday, the supporters
of the immediate admission of Ger
many scored another victory in the
election of Delegate Iluueus of Chile
as president of commission number
5 Doctor Blanco of Cuba was made
vice president. The French were sur
prised and chugrined at not receiving
this presidency for Vlvlani, but they
had been already put at a disadvan
tage by the naming of Bourgeois as
head of the third commission. It had
been supposed that Great Britain, be
cause of her naval power, would get
the presidency of the commission deal
ing with disarmament and blockade ot
covenant breaking states and with
mandates, but here again the smaller
nations showed their independence by
giving the place to Delegate Branting
of Sweden. The French, Italian and
English delegations won a point Tues
day when it was decided that the com
missions might, if they wished, sit in
camera and need keep no minutes of
their sessions. Cecil protested in
vain against this.
Delegate Puyrredon of the Argen
tine told the assembly that his delega
tion believed all recognized nations
must belong to the league to make It
effective and to avoid the danger^of
the organization of a rival league. He
Bald that a formula must be found to
permit t6e United States to come In,
and demanded that the league be made
more democratic by electing all the
members of the council in the assem
bly, instead of allowing the big pow
ers to name a majority olthem, as at

An Interesting story from Munich
sets foi-ih the imminence of a new rev
olution In Bavaria which Is to make an
Independent siate oi that second larg
est state of the German confederation
and the creation of a regency, proba
bl.v to be followed by the selection of
one ol the Wlttelsbach family as king.
It is planned, also, that Bavaria shall
enter into an agreement with France
to gnaiaiilee her independence and ob
tain relief from her part of the Ger
man war burden. The story, which is
plausible, says the real niler of Ba
varia is Doctor Escherlch, founder of
the Bavarian home militia, whose
armed strength Is about 100,000 that
he is backed by the former German
s'aff oilicers and monarchists, chief of
whom is General Ludendorff, and that
Ludendorff probably would be chosen
regent. Escherlch has refused to dis
arm his militia, and it is expected the
entente will soon threaten to occupy
the Ruhr basin in consequence. When
this Is done, according to the plot, the
workers, socialists and communists
will lare a general strike nnd in the
ensuing conflict the coup d'etat will
be accomplished. ?,

useless to give
aid tie factions within Russia that
were rebellion gainst Lenity? and
Trot7.' ,v. Even the leaders of the
Metishiv'sts and otlcr wise opponents
of Bolshevism In Russia have long
maintained that position and asserted
that the host th'ng 'o do was to recog
nize 'h' Moscow government, or at
least let it a one. a'd that ultimately,
having nothing to fight, Bolshevism
must fall. It seepis likely that this
view of the problem will now become
general.
The erush'ns of Wrangel was swift,
once the Bolshe I!i had broken
throit'-'li his deferses on the I'erekop
penltis'ta. His troops were driven
back to Xehastopol ind some 20,000 of
them, together with many thousands of
civilian refugees, embarked there and
were carried to Constantinople and
other ports. Wrangel also escaped to
the Turkish capital.
The soviet forces were then directed
against the Ukrainians under General
IVtlnra and these also were nut to
rout. Kiev and other cities being occu
pied by the Reds. There was fear in
the capitals of Europe that the Rus
sians would now renew the fight
against the Po'es. nnd certain threat
ening notes from Moscow to Warsaw
increased the apprehension.
The Turkisfy nationalists have desig
nated soviet Russia as the "warden of
the Orient." according to Talaat
Pasha, former vizier, and consider the
treaty between Turkey and the allies
Invalid. With the help of the nation
alists. the Russians are strengthening
their hold on the country between the
Black and Caspian seas, demanding
more and more from the Georgians and
the Armenians, and opening more com
pletely their route to Persia, and Meso
potamia. and perhaps to India. The
British have decided not to reduce
heir military establishment in Meso
potamia for the present.*.

and, paying tribute to the memory
Ism Id. 8—Touhis a. Le Breton, arn-
called George Rhadis to form a ney
cabinet, and when the new premier
was sworn in he demanded the resig
nation of the admiral and made Queen
Olga, mother of former ng Con
stantly, regent. It was taken for
granted that the victorious party, of
which Gounaiis is the head, would re
call Constantino to the throne, though
he says he will not return except by
mandate of the Greek people In a pleb
iscite. Probably a majority of the
civil population would vote for the res
toration now, but it Is be'ieved most
of the army would oppose It If given
a chance to vote. There Is even some
talk of the troops In Asia Minor re
turning to prevent the recall of Cou
stantlne by force. This presumablj
would precipitate a civil war. France
and England have been holding con
versations over the Greek situation,
but It was stated neither would act
without the other.
The Kansas Industrial court, which
has been so bitterly attacked by or
ganized labor, showed the other of Its
two edges last week when It called be
fore It representatives of all (lour mill«
In Topeka. Workmen had cmnplnined
to the court that some of the mills had
closed down nnd others were on part
time, and the court wanted to know
why, since such a thing cannot be done
without court sanction where a neces
sity of life is Involved.
The millers agreed that the cheaper
Canadian wheat available to Eastern
mills and clienper Canadian flour avail
able to consumers had led to such
curtailment of new orders and iiuch
cancellation of orders previously
placed that mills which had closed ir
were on "part time" had acted from
necessity. If the court finds, the ac
tion of the millers unjustified It can
order the operation of the mills on a
scale which it deems Just. It will be
readily seen that this case is of far
more than local Importance In Its Influ
ence on future legislation and the pos
sible establishment of similar courts In
other states.
The executive council of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor is busy get

for the "humanlzaclon of Industry."
Its main demand will be that union

provisions for the appointment of com

with factory owners In the manage
ment of production. The pro rram also
calls for a renewal of the fH'ht on the
open shop. Among Its other features
are:
Repeal of existing laws and opposi
tion to proposed laws requiring com
pulsory arbitration of industrial dis

Opposition to laws restricting the
right of workers to quit work when
conditions are not satisfactory.
Enactment of leg'siatlon restricting

GLORY IN DEFEAT
lissouri Valley Loses to Atlantic
(i
Through the Referee
The football team .accompanied by
a band and nearly 150 rooters,
urneyed- by special train to Atlantic
nday, to try conclusions with the
imous American Legion team of that
•n- city.
T' special arrived in Atlantic at
an and, headed by the band, the
urn and rooters paraded the prin
•?al streets of the town.
At 3 o. m, when the game was call
1, the field was lined with humanity,
lie field was muddy, which cut down
'.e speed of both teams, but partic
:.rly the lo:a!s.
Ablant.c kicked off to the locals who
ed a few plays through the line
id around the ends but without gain
that they were forced to punt,
account of the mud on the quar
backs shoes, the punt was a poor
and Atlantic had the ball on the
'alley's ten yard line.
ine plunges were used sucucess
.'.lly for four downs when the ball
'as pushed over but they failed to
goal. Score Atlantic 6, Mis
mr.ri Valley 0.
After this the Valley braced and
n- the next three quarters they out
!ayed Atlantic in every department
the game. The locals gained at
•ast three yards to Atlantic's one
ul three times they had the ball
thin a few feet of the Atlantic goal
Jt could not push it over.
Virtually every time the Valley
ould ake a good gain the referee
mid call them back and penalize
'ie.n for some offense.
The boys have nothing but praise
or the Atlantic team, as they played
od football, but, as one of the play
•rs expressed it, "the referee was the
host ground gainer they had."
Atlantic claims not to have been"
heaten in seven years, but the boys
re willing to put up a purse of $1000
hat they can defeat them on neutral
rrounds with1 impartial officials.
Those who saw the game have
nothing but praise for both teams, as
hey both played stellar football, but
luring the last three quarters the
'o?als had much the better of it from
every angle, except that of the ref
eree.
