RELIEF FOR JEWS.
LEAGUE OF NATIONS ACTS.
OPPOSITION BY GERMANY. (United Press Association—Copyright). LONDON, October 12. Messages from Geneva say that the Council of the League of Nations will probably appoint a . governing board to direct Jewish work this week, but the appointment of a high commissioner depends on the discovery of a suitable candidate who is willing to accept. Viscount Cecil's name has been mentioned. The German delegate (Herr von Keller), refrained from voting on the resolution that the Council should nominate a high commissioner to direcb Jewish refugee work, but this did not prevent the adoption of the resolution. The work therefore will proceed. The German delegation voted against the section of the Minority Committee's resolution advocating favourable treatment for Jews, and the remainder of the resolution, which was adopted, merely involves the pious hope that Governments will treat minorities with moderate decency.
