The small river port of 600 inhabitants and its surrounding terrain formerly belonged to Peru, but was ceded to Colombia by treaty signed in September, 1922, and ratified in 1928. Today's decision of the league council, observers believed would mean a definite declaration of war between Peru and Colombia. The Leticia report was hailed by Colombia's league delegation as unprejudiced and impartial. It recommended that both parties recognize Ihe validity of the 1922 treaty, under which the Leticia zone belongs to Colombia. The report gave the Colombians authority to expel the Peruvian invaders. Germany was the first to answer when the roll call began, casting her vote for acceptance. Norway, Panama and Poland were next to answer the roll call, their delegates accepting the report. — o START WORK ON SCOUT BOOTHS continued from page one cry. marksmanship, masonry, metal work, mining music, nut culture, painting, pathfinding, personal health, photograph; physical development, pioneering plumbing pot tery, poultry keeping, printing, public health, public speaking, reading, reptile study, safety, salesmanship, scholarship, sculpture, seamanship, sheep farming, signaling, soil management, stalking surveying, swimming. taxidermy, textiles, weather, wood carving, wood turning, zoology.

banking system. 4.
