contimreney and Mr. Wilson pro ed the insertion of this Amend nt, and ii appears in Article 1 of Covenant: it reads as follows “Any mher of the League may after two rs notice of its intention so to cl >. thdraw from the League, provided thu all it- international obligations ail its obligations under the Gove t shall have been fulfilled at tile
ne of its withdrawal.”
Immediatey th.» enemies of fhe »pie set up the cry that it Id be for the Council or the Jbimbly of the League to say, in Wc of our withdrawal, whether we M fulfilled our obligations under the Covenant, and dire prophecies wo*e Wul|te<l in about the compromise of *jv National Honor, and the vast Wck to our sovereignty lhat we •/nld suffi i if we allowed any other litio n or group of Nations to del-O'. iV whether we had filled our ohlig
ns under the covenant
“To meet this objection the first hcock reservation roads as t'ol- *•— “That any member Nation sing to withdraw from the Lea on two years notice is the sit judgi as to whether its obligat. • rrlerr, I to in Article 1 of the lurur of Nations have been pervd as required in said Article, a ured that America's honor r il always be safe in the hand - o' - 'Hrty that has raise,} tluit honor to •Mdgho-t pitch it has heretofore and intends to keep it there.

To place the mutter entirely be doubt one of the Hitchcock re, “ions reads as follows:— “That m «nibcr Nation is required to sub 1° the League, its Council or its m bly, for decision, reports or re m rn<tatii,n.

PRES. AND MRS. VON KLEIN SMID ON TRIP TO SOI TH \MERIC \
The Board of Regents of the University have voted President Von KleinSmid a leave of absence for six ty dues. It was |he idea of the Board that at least this length of time j should be taken bv the President tor rest anil recreation after the stren. nous work of the 1st six years during which time he has had no vacations at ail. With the rapidly growing institution and the multiplication of new university interests, it has been impossible to find relief for vacation among the increased burdens falling upon the administration. However, in the light of the great opportunities opening ip the Latin.American countries for increased commercial and social intercourse. Dr. Von Kleirsmid has decided to spend his two month- in a trip to Panama and down the West Coast of South America.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind , Oct. 12.— Senator James E. Watson is busy ex. plaining to the people of Indiana how he has always been a devoted friend of prohibition, yet a glance at his re j cord in the United States Senate { leads to the conclusion that he sometimes favored the other side and that on several occasions he sidestepped an opportunity to make known his
real sentiments.
One of the earliest votes in the Sen ate was against an amendment pro riding for fine and imprisonment for anyone violating the law relating to the manufacture, sale of gift of in. toxicating liquor- in the Philippine i Islands Senator Warren G. Harding j the Republican presidential nominee
* took a similar stand.
AVhi n the resolution was up to bar
! liquor from the men in the military | service Watson and Harding both vnt , ed against an amendment offered by
McKeller regarding th<' use if liquor
l at military establishments. Under-
wood then proposed to include mem hers of Congve-- within the provi•oiis of the military law and Watson 'avored a motion to table it On the inn! vote on the Underwood previse Watson and Harding both registered >ppo-ition. and later the Indiana Sen tor voted against an amendment by human to include all officers and cm doyes of the United States govern nent within the act. Harding did not •ote on the Pittman resolution.
