England Against Allowing League to Use Her Fleet
Lord Parmoor Denies Tha He Gave Promise Navy to Enforce Dictums
of Geneva
London, Oct. 15.—Small the British navy be used to police the seas for the League of Nations and to make war on or blockade quarrellsome nations which the League adjudges the aggressor in an international row?
This is a question which is worrying the majority of Britishers, and the answer is invariably a most emphatic "N."
The question has arisen from the recent Geneva debates on the disarmament and mutual guarantee pact and there is a very strong idea prevailing in England that Britain is going to be asked to hold the sack in any League disputes requiring naval action.
Despite detalls issued by the British delitigation at Geneva, a very strong idea exists on the Continent, chiefly in France, that Lord Parmour promised the use of the British navy in any international measures the German navies would perform world peace and to punish aggressors in unnecessary wars.
French Think Promise Made
Lord Parmoor says that no such promise was made and that the British navy must always remain under the control of the British government—and the House of Commons—but that it might be Britain's duty as a member of the League to accept certain conditions in wars which the majority of the nations of the world considered unnecessary and unjustified.
According to the schemes discussed, at Geneva in the event of war between two members (and presumably in another) and a non-member and a non-member) the League Council or Hague Court would decide which was the aggressor, and the who? weight of the League membership thrown against that trouble-maker.
**British Feel Navy Wanted**
If it merely happened to be a case
of British serrapping with Poland,
British naval officers could not
cause her army not being very big,
would not be expected to take part,
but there is a very general feeling
that any naval measures would al-
low Britain to be further known
British navy for liquidation.
If it were merely a question of thumping countries like Greece, Holland, Denmark, Norway, etc., into submission nobody would have been able to resist. Mr. Garrard was given an ijt gentle exercise for the British fleet, and save the monotony of annual maneuvers. But there are other and larger r countries, and as regards warships, the British must be on "sanction" on them, because the law at Geneva or the Hague regard them as aggressors, the British nation must enmolish say "Nix" — or certainly not until Britain herself has made up her own mind on the issue.
There is the possibility of a war between the United States and Japan. The former is not a member of the League and the latter is. If the jurists should decide that the United States was the aggressor and prosecution against them, nobody doubts that the British navy would be expected to do the job
How About the U. S.?
Most emphatically the British navy will not be used to fight the United States over the Monroe Doctrine, in a squalid affect two Latin-American states. So says anybody you might ask in the street.
Then, perhaps might come the question of two belligerent South or Central teams in a football League that one is the aggressor, and J. Bull's navy is called upon to bump the wrongdoor into submission. How about the Monroe
And the British nation says "NIX."
If the jurists decided that Japan was the aggressor, the British nation would probably also say "nix"—not "the white folks"—but there would be the natural desire for the white folks to win, but Britain has been very friendly with Japan, and the national verdict would doubtless be: "It's no business of ours. Let them fight it on out their own."

The international debate between Kansas and Oxford is to take place Monday evening, Oct. 20, at 7:30 in the Little theater on the question, "Resolved that this house is opposed to the principle of prohibition," and to introduce students to the students and citizens of Lawzey to hear one of the finest debating teams ever in this country, according to Bryan A. Gikinson, debate coach The Oxford team was brought it; this country upon the invitation of the Oxford school board, which is doing work in building up international student relations.
The men who will represent Kansas in the debate are Brewer Morgan, who was a member of the Kansas City, Kans., high school debating team.

Hollis, who was educated at Eton and Balliol College, Oxford. The latter was president of the Union in 1923 and has written for one or two English books. He also contributed to the Outlook.
Bates College of Lewiston, Mw., was the first college to take the initiative in international debating. A debating team from Bates visited England in the spring of 1921, debating a team that was so successful that it resulted in an invitation being extended to the Oxford team to visit the United States in the fall of 1922. Because of the size of the undertaking, the University Education was added to undertake the arrangement of this literary.
In the spring of 1923, a debating team from Columbia University visited England and debated with Oxford and other university debating teams. The American team was lavishly entertained and a spirit of good fellowship was built up between the visiting team and the English colleges. In the fall of 1923 Oxford University joined the team to the United States and a tour of the co-cr universities was made and a number of important debates held. In the spring of 1924 a debating team from Colgate went to England and debated teams from a number of English universities, including Oxford.
Two English Teams in U. S.
At the present time, two English debating teams are in the United States. The first team will debate Kansas, is now making a tour of the western colleges, having commenced at Pittsburgh on Oct. 3. At about the same time a debating team from Cambridge entered th= United States from Canada and opened a debate tour of the Canadian Central University.

Opened New Travel Era Arrival of ZR-3 Shows Advance in Aircraft
Lakureh, N. J., Qet, 15—"The arrival of the ZR-3 begins a new era in world transportation and may mark the beginning of an economic revolution," Capt. Aton Helenian, "Capt. told the Old Press today."
"Within twenty-five years aircraft will be used as commonly as automobiles are today.
"The dirigible will prove the strongest impulse the world had known for world wide troopheadhousing, to mount a mountain scale between distant peoples."
Heinen explains the zeppelin's worth has proved beyond all doubt of the practicality of construction of huge air cruisers for definite purposes such as the present trans-Atlantic flight of the GR-3.
"We can easily construct much larger air cruisers," the captain said. "A flight from New York to Pakim is entirely practical. A ship that could cover the foot capacity of the ZB-3 would simply suffice for a rover voyage."
