THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS

AMERICA’S PARTICIPATION

REVIVED AS NATIONAL ISSUE STRONGLY-ORGANISED SUPPORT

The United States’ participation in the League of Nations is being revived as a national issue, and a well-or-ganised association is holding meetings in support of the movement. The question is likely to be a paramount issue at the Presidential campaign next year.

BY TELEGRAPH— PRESS ASSOCIATION. —COPYRIGHT. (Rec. April 8, 5.5 p.m.) New York, April 6. The sixth anniversary of America’s entrance into the war finds the League of Nations revived as a national issue, with strongly organised support in the shape of a national non-partisan association- On Friday night, in virtually every State, meetings were held under the association's auspices for tin) purpose of urging American participation in the Geneva body. Twenty or thirty distinguished Republicans who in 1920 appealed for public support for President Harding, are now members of the League Association, the potentialities of which are believed to be sufficient to make the question of American membership in some form of international association a paramount issue at the next Presidential Campaign tin 1924. —Aus.-N.Z.
