WASHINGTON, Dec. 13. Concern of ooiurreüslonal leaders as to ability of tho trsury to me ft th $7, oOO, 000,000 of Aar debts maturing within the next two and a half years was indicated by Chairman Forumy of the ways and means committee. Monday, both In the hou.! and at tho openings of hearings by his committee on revision of revenue- legislation. The ways and means committee chairman frankly expressed doubt as to whether the estimate of a four billion annual tax levy would be sufficient to jneet the requirements of tho government over the period of maturing tre;isury certificates and victory notes. As a solution he advocated refunding into lonr term bonds of the certificates now tmrvpatinK $.350000.000, aw well of the iirtt l.-yuc of war tvivins ttamps and the victory note Issue. rolnt Out Solution.

LEAGUE PLANS FOR COURT OF JUSTICE MDE
International Court Will Be iSon-Ohligator)' in Its Jurisdiction. NOW UP TO MEMBERS Court to be Formed by September if Majority of Nations Approve. GKNKVA, Doc. 13. (By the Ass'd Iresa) The assembly accomplished Monday the first Important constructive act in the work of tho i-Jeague of Nations, in adopting a Itatute for a permanent international court of justice. The organization as planned still lacks the obligatory appearance of both parties to a dispute and provides no penalty for non-compliance, with tho decisions of the court. The. advocates of the projects however, believe that it is tho most complete plan that could be accepted by the different governments ! and are confident that tho good will of the nations will remedy Its defects. The p.an will go now to tr.o different states for ratification. .att.s Majority Vot If twenty two. or a majority of the members of the leapue approve it before the n xt meeting of the assembly, the Judges will bo elected und tho court will come into existence in the month of September. Adoption of tho plan came after an -oratoi'cal duel, with IitinAmerlca on one side, and Europe on the other, over the question as to whether the Jurisdiction of the International court ought to be obligatory or voluntary. Raoul Fernandlnrz. Itrazil; Dr. Carlos Uruota. Colombia, Ilarmcdio Arias, Panama; Aristides Aguero, Cuba; Senor Itlanco, Uruguay, and Senor Aramayo, Polivla. insisted with great forco upon the necessity of obligatory jurisdiction to make the court really effective. Some of the speakers mado reference to the small majority in the committer which had forced a isr-e minority to bend to its will. It was also declarer: that the big powers had used their greater influence to defeat the most Important features of the measure. The greater number of the fifteen. speakers were skeptical as to the value of optional Jurisdiction as provided fcr In the project. Tefcntl plan. Ivon Itourgeois, France; A. J. Hal four. England; Dr. George V. Hajrerup. Norway. and GuLseppt Motta, Switzerland, defended the p'an as the bst that could be set up for a beginning. Mr. IUlfour made, a defense of Europe against what he termed a "united attack." No country, h said, had been more stromrly in fivor of arbitration than Great Uritain. Ho argued that it was necessary to make a becinnlng. The whole project might he rendered inoperative if that beginning were not made with due regard for certain realities. Though th debate could not change the viewpoint of the maJority, it s-ned to relieve the feel ings of the delegates. which had reached a high pitch in the long d'scusslon in committee.

GREEK KIM READY FOR RETURN TRIP Constantine and Family Will Start Triumphant Return to Greece Today. LUCE UN, Switzerland. Dec. 13. (Fl the Associated Press.) The members of ConMantlne's suite, with their families and servants, will leave Tuesday for Frlndlsi, from wich port they will depart for Athens. The departure of Constantino himself for Venice Tuesday afternoon will be informal and the same as that of ordinary travelers. According to additional details of the program of the Greek government, telegraphed to Constantine on Monday, the latter will arrive at Fhaleron, four miles from Athens, at 1 o'clock Sunday afternoon. The party will pick up the Greek council of ministers and Crown Prince George at the Island of Melos and they will Join in the triumphant entry into Greece. Fefore landing at Fhaleron, Constantine will don the uniform of a generalissimo in the Greek army. Uttlo Kxcltemeiit. The absence of excitement here in connection with the preparations for Constantine'M departure is explained by the fact that the long wait in hearing the official result of thep leblseite created an anticlimax. To casual observers it would hardly have been apparent today that the. royal family were in their hotel. Various members of the family Quen Sophie, the Princesses Helen and Irene and Prince Paul go in and out without fuKs feathers, while little Princess Catherine continues to play through the corridors and in the lobby with her English governess close at hand. Constantine is spending most of his time in his study, going over thcommunications from the Greek government and answering his personal correspondence.
