JJ SENATOR BORAH OF IDAHO SEES AN ASSOCIATION OF NATIONS LIKE LEAGUE OF NATIONS - Latest Proposals Lack Defintlon And Form is Argument Set Forth By Senator From Far Western State - Washington The propsed association of nations has not yet been re duced toform nor yet defined. But from what one gathers here and there it is the old league of nations yvlth possibly some reservations under another name. It will be engaged In precisely the same kind of work and doing the same things that were proposed by the league. It is not what you call it, but what It is that counts. Fundamentally and in the practical Workings of the association of nations it will not differ from the league of na. tlons. I see no reason therefore why the forty-thre- e nations which have signed the league of nations should be asked to abandon it and transfer their names Jo an association of nations. If we want to go into this kind of a proposition there Is no reason why we should not experiment with the ono they have. It Is claimed by the advocates of the league that the present league has been of service to Europe. If so, there is no reason, for asking Europe to scrap the old league and try a new one. If we are going into Europe we ought to go in. If we are not, w,e ought not to be handing her a new league every ninety days. She will likely conclude that after the next presidential' election she would have another league. I see no difference Whatever In Joining the present league and joining a new league by another name. "a The UiritedrtState opeiWes-mroe- r Great Britain written constitution. has no written constitution. One of the arguments being put forth now In favor of the association of nations is that Mr. Wilson made a mistake in gtv. lng his plan a written constitution that we should adopt the British idea and undertake to conduct the league or any association without any written constitution or written covent whatever, in other words, that the new association will consist of representatives of different governments coming together with no limitation upon their Jurisdiction or power or authority or other than their own discretion. A conclave of diplomats sitting behind closed doors with nothing fo direct or limit their powers save their own will and discretion would be a rather in. terestlng proposition. I tun inclined to think that If the American people choose a league they will choose one which has its powers defined, or at least make an attempt to define them, rather than trust their destiny to the unbridled discretion of a few men. Lloyd George suggested some time ago, according to the press dispatches, that the alliance be ex. tended to the alliance and that this alliance take upon itself the duty of administering China. Now, It is said, that such an alliance would be wholly objection' able to the American people, but that under an association of nations the same thing could be effectuated and It Is also being urgea accomplishedthat while 'the people of the United Stataes would not be willing to form an alliance with France and Great Britain to guarantee the security of France, the same thing could be under an association of nations without any constitution. It Is also urged that the international debt could be more successfully manipulated through the association. All of which thngs simply disclose that the associations is another name for the league with some additional and more extensive powers annexed. It does, not appear as yet whether we are to have two leagues or one league, and one association or whether Is to be that the league organized by Mr. Wilson will be merged Into the association organized by President Harding. It will be very difficult to get Tfd of the present league unless the Versailles treaty is radically modified, but I presume we will know more when the matter is reduced to such concrete form ns will enable us to grasp t or at least to try to do so.

Insistent Stand for Increase In Capital 8hlp Tonnage for Cosideratlon In Full Meeting of Powers Committee on Far Eastern era in the state of Utah Is recommended In the report of the legislative com. ralttee of the Ogden chapter of the American Association of Engineers.

A resolution declaring for relinquishment of foreign postoffice privileges in China was adopted Monday by the nine powers sitting as a committtee on Pacific and Far Eastern questions. The date of January 1, 1923, was set for the abandoment of foreign postoffices, and this was agreed to by all the powers represented except Jap. an, whose representatives asked for time to helTr from their government The Japanese delegates, It was said, did not object to January 1, 1923, as the date for abandoning their postof-flees- , but felt that they did not have the authority to agree to that date without referring the matter to Toklo The nine powers committee deferred final action until later on the quee-tio- n of extra territorial rights In China. The prinlciple of closing foreign courts In China, it was said, was agreed to, but consideration of the formal resolution went over. Chinese representatives at Mondays meeting brought up the domestic control of Chinese railways. The question, however went over for consideration at another meeting of the nine powers Tuesday.

This was learned on highest authority as the naval armanent committee of the arms conference met to discuss this situation.

The entire question of japans insistence on an Increased ratio in oapital ships will be thrown into the arms conference for settlement.

The situation is believed to be that Secretary Hughes is tired of the of the naval experts and their failure to agree, and has decided to take the matter in bis own hands again to force the question to a settlement. -- Singers Honor Caruso New York The Metropolitan Opera company paid a memorial tribute to Enrico Caruso Sunday.
