NO SERIOUS WORK YET. (TENEVA, Sept. fi.
The League of Nations Assembly, so far, lias been remarkably slow in settling down to serious work: perhaps beeause the most inioortant item on the agenda paper, {'arbitration for security and the reduction of Armaments) lias been, by loree ot circumstances, made wbat might be called an off stage episode, which, at present is not ripe for a full dress rehearsal. E ven though the item, by tacit consent, is being screened from the limelight, the very fact that so many Foreign Ministers are in Geneva lit the moment makes the Security Pact issue transcend all others. The League. this morning, sat scarcely an hour, ratifying the mere formalities of electing commissions. It then adjourned till to-morrow. Mr Chamberlan and M. Pninlevc were guests at a luncheon to the Interim tionnl Journalists, immediately after wbieb they hoarded a car and sped to Aix-La-Bains, where Mr Baldwin is holidaying. Word went round that it was a‘cast* of ten for three in a politieal setting, all being preliminary to a private meeting to-morrow morning at (ieneva between Mr Cliaiuberlam. M. Prinml, M. Vandervelde and Signor Seialoja. There is the best authority tor stating the jurists have made such progress that four of the Allies and Lernianv have drawn up industrial texts for drafting the pact, and it is not n secret that the. British Foreign (Mine rvgnnls the headway far m excess in its hopes.
