So would Brazil. The manner in which the prob- lem was solved, if it reaily is solved, has led to some heart-burning, The Assembly of the League of Nations was asked to vote, in one and the same motion, on the admission of Germany and the addition of three non-permanent. seats to the mem- bership of the Council. The vote in favour was unanimous, though ~the representatives Holland, Norway," and Sweden maintained that they were compelled to vote for the part of the motion which they did not like in order to "pass the, part which they approved. So Germany is in the League- but Spain and Brazil, are out, at least Whether the League of Nations is richer or poor- er by the trade, time alone can tell. Germany, it seems, of temporarily. is satisfied, because now she is once again, in a formal way, one of the recognized Great Powers of the world, she has a platform from Also, which to of the earth. Of course, if the League of Nations is to fulfil its purpose its membership must include all the countries there are. Each vacancy is a weakness so far as the League's ideals are concerned. But, even yet, it will be difficult for many people in the Allied Na- tions to forgive and forget and tc 'welcome Germany as a member of 'the sisterhood of nations. It is very difficult, when only eight years have elapsed since 1918, to give German credit for altruism and a desire 1 promote the peace of the world. Ye! it must be done.

Of these the 'more important is the consumma- ttion of the Locarno pacts. For some ten. But Sir Austen Chamberlain 'loses no opportunity to stress the few days they are to come formally before the League for ratification. The other problem is that of In- 'right for India. On Wednesday last la member of the League's delegation from that country outlined India's aspirations to become a dominion "like Canada, Australia, and South 'Africia."

Being Led Astray Fred Maundrell. treasurer of the committee, was called on; and stated that he felt from rumors that many of the workmen were being ed astray on some of the lo- cal issues of the campaign. The committee had asked Mr. Broom- field to secure some information} for them and place it before them at this meeting. He realized, he said, that they were up against a real proposition on Tuesday next. He knew that the delegation to Ot- tawa was financed out of their own pockets. In regard to the meeting last evening, he said, that this al- Se was being financed by he work- men, and if there were any party men present he did' not want them to contribute to the funds, to de- fray the cost of the meeting. He wanted the workmen to do it themselves, A committee had waited on John- nj Graves asking him if hewould mike a statement that he did not represent any Veterans or Soldiers organization in the stand he was taking in this election, and that he was speaking only for Johnny Grav- es: This according to Mr. Maun- drell, he consented to do, "if I would do the same thing." "I am making. my statement tonight, It will remain to be seen what state- ment Mr. Graves makes at to-mor- row's meeting." i He stated' that the meeting last evening was not under the auspices of any soldiers organization. but simply called by the workmen and veterans of the city to discuss the issues of the campaign. F. A. Hardman, was the next speaker. He wished to give a pat- riotic touch to the meeting, he Sal, "HM Would" speak "Mostly Trot' nc pre " that standpoint.

More business for the government and "what is far more important, the low rate would aid greatly in the edu- cation of the American people," were the reasons advanced for the revision by former Congressman John J. Lentz, of Columbus, Ohio. Congressman George FE. Welsh, Philadelphia, advocated an adequate old age pension for retired postal clerks and a reduced retirement age, and added inducements to postal clerks doing night work.
