LEAGUE OF NATIONS.
DIFFICULTIES AHEAD
(Received March 1J ,11 a.m.) LONDON, March 7
:The "Daily Express's" Paris correspondent states:—The trouble of the Conference will'come when the discussion of the League of Nations, begins. •'• ' ' . Japan retains • her complete _scepticism to the whole idea, and is supported in this attitude by Italy, who ■demands all- the secret treaty of 191 c .gave her. Japan also nas a coup in the deter-mination-to bring ,up the racial question at the Conference. She will demand the constitution of the League of Nations shall begin with a similar •declaration to that contained in the American Declaration of Independence, •declaring all men and races equal. How President Wilson and Colonel House will receive this logical suggestion remains to be seen.
