LEAGUE OF NATIONS.

COST OF ADMINISTRATION. Pros* Association—Oopyr ?Ut, Australian and N.2. Cable Association. LONDON, October 13. As a result of Germany's entry into the League of Nations, the latter's Budget for the new financial year will be divided into 1015 units instead of the previous 937, says the Daily Telegraph's diplomatic correspondent. The British Empire's share will be 258 units, or just over a quarter of the total, while the Empire's relative position, with a single seat on the new Council, will be even more remarkable. This fact is occupying the attention of the Dominion relegates at present in London. The British Empire occupies the same nosition as Salvador, which has one unit of financial responsibility. South American States secure three seats, with a total of 21 units, compared with India's 56, Canada's 35, and Australia's 27 units. France and her four military allies, Belgium, Poland), Roumania and Czecho-S}lov-akia, obtain five seats for a total of ISO units, against the single seat reserved for Great Britain, India and the Dominions combined.
