MR. FOX’S GAME WITH THE
SNOW SHOES.
LITTLE Peter Rabbit was very
fortunate to escape from Mr.
Red Fox—he lay secure in the little
hole into which he had dashed and his
heart beat so hard it nearly smother
ed him.
Jimmy Coon and Teddy Possum
skipped up a tree in less than no
time and when safe they looked down
to see what would happen.
When the Snow Shoe Rabbit, who
was with the fishing party drummed
on the ground with his hind feet, it
woke up all his great family of rela
tives instantly and they all drum
med with their hind feet and rush
ed out to see what was the matter.
It was very hard on poor Mr. Fox ,
when he had such a nice dinner in j
sight as Little Peter Rabbit to scare j
him off.

■ ?■ - ’
You never saw anyone run as fast as
the Snow Shqe Rabbits.
But Peter could not have gotten
( away if all the Snow Shoe Rabbits I
had not rushed out of their house
and so Mr. Fox had to rush around i
. j and turn first one way and then an
! other. ,
■ | He whirled so fast he was dizzy
I and didn’t know which Snow Shoe
I Rabbit to run after.
Every Snow Shoe Rabbit ran in
. a different direction, and Mr. Red
■ Fox chased one and then another,
and Jimmy Coon and Teddy Possum
i laughed and laughed. Snow Shoe
! sat under his door and laughed too
and Jimmy Coon poked .Teddy Pos
sum hnd said, “Now I know why Un
cle Snow Shoe Rabbit laughed when
, I asked him why he was afraid of
■ Mr. Red Fox, he just said ‘wait and
see’.”
“Isn’t he clever and smart, to train
his family so that they can all run
faster than Mr. Red Fox?”
| When Jimmy Coon and Teddy Pos
! sum came down out of the tree they
1 sat and talked to Uncle Snow Shoe
! Rabbit and little Peter crawled out of
i his hole and talked too.
“That is why I train all my boys
: and girls to dance and run. They can
easily get away from Mr. Red Fox.
We all think it is a game we have
with Mr. Red Fox. He laughs and we
laugh and he never catches one of
us. He comes every day to see if he
can catch us napping. Every single
day. He likes the fun of it but I hear
that he sometimes catches some of
your family Peter. You ought to take
i lessons in running.”
Little Peter sighed and shook his
head.’Jimmy Coon patted him on the
back and said “Never mind, Peter we
will look out for you until we get
you home, and Mr. Red Fox shall
not catch you this time.”
Peter fairly shook with fright when
he thought what a narrow squeeze he
had had, and he made up his mind
never again to take a nap right out
in plain sight where any enemy could
nab him.

AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER
THE COVENANTER LETTERS
THE AUTHORS:— WiIIiam H. Taft, ex-President of the
United States; George W. Wickersham, formerly U. S.
Attorney A. Lawrence Lowell, President Har
vard University; Henry W. Taft, of the New York Bar.
THE PURPOSE:— To discuss and make clear the various
articles of the Paris Covenant for a League of Nations,
now awaiting ratification by the United States Senate.
(By an arrangement with the publishers, Doubleday Page and Co.,
The Times-Recorder is able to present in advance a copy of “The
Covenanter Letters,” which will appear in book form toward the end
of June. These letters touch every angle of the plan for a League of
Nations proposed by the Paris Covenant, now awaiting ratification by
the United States Senate, and are presented for the enlightenment of
the public. In accordance with the authors’ wishes, the individual let
ters are not identified with any one writer.)
ARTICLE 11.
The Assembly.
This is the larger organ of the
League, the one in which all the mem
bers are represented, by three dele
! gates apiece, if they please, so that if
1 all the forty-hve countries named in
the Annex to the Covenant should
join the League and each ... of them
should send its full complement of
three, the Assembly would fill one
hundred and thirty-five seats. Since
statesmen and others in all lands have
a strong desire to be of service on
such occasions it is probable that the
delegates present will not be much
less than this, a number well fitted
for debate, but not for confidential
interchange of opinions on delicate
matters.
Actual Functions Limited.
■ The Assembly will, indeed, prob
ably attract more popular attention
than any other organ of the League;
and yet its actual functions, which
are to be found scattered through va
rious articles of the Covenant, are
extremely limited. Besides regulating
I its own procedure and appointing its
’ committees it is empowered to select
the four smaller states to be repre
sented on the Council to approve of
enlargements of the Council, to con
firm the selection of the Secretary
General, to report upon disputes be
tween nations referred to it by the
Council or by either of the disputants,
to advise the reconsideration by mem
-1 bers of the League of treaties that
have become inapplicable and the con
sideration the peace of the world, I
and by a two-thirds vote to admit new
members of the League. Except,
therefore, for some definite powers
relating to the organization and mem
bership of the League, its authority in
international affairs is confined to
making a report in certain disputes,
and giving some advice to the mem
bers.
What then is the meaning of the
third clause of the article which pro
vides that “the Assembly may deal at
its meetings with any matter within
the sphere of action of the League, or
affecting the peace of the world.”
Clearly this does not mean that it can
deal only with the subjects to which
its authority extends by the provisions
of the Covenant, for that would re
duce its field of discussion to almost
nothing. Nor, on the other hand, does
it mean that the Assembly can take
action binding upon the members in
all matters within the sphere of ac
lion of the League because specific
provisions are made for dealing with
those matters, and the interpretation
suggested would render all such pro
visions futile. The Assembly wuld
have power to overrule them all.
Moreover, Article V. declares that ex
cept where otherwise expressly pro
vided decisions of the Assembly or
Council shall require the consent of
all the members of the League repre
sented at the meeting. But a unani
mous decision of forty-five countries
can never be attained where there is
any serious difference of opinion, and
where there is not it is needless. To
authorize the Assembly to take unani
mous action on any subject they
pleased would, therefore, be simply
conferring a power that cannot be
used.
Importance of Discussion.
In view of the other specific pro
visions of the Covenant the intention
of the clause is perfectly clear. It
means that the Assembly is authoriz-
Jed not to decide, but to discuss, all
matters within the sphere of action
of the League or that affect the peace
of the world. In tnls it is the sue-

cessor to the conferences at The I
Hague. Save for the very limited '
authority expressly vested in it the j
function of the Assembly is discus- ■
sion, and that is of immense import-!
ance. The mere fact that any nation,
however small, can bring its griev- j
ances and its aspirations before a j
general body of representatives gath
ered from all the free .orderly and
civilized peoples o“ the earth is of
inestimable value. It is a fertile
means of creating that enlighten
ed public opinion on international
questions which has been heralded
as one of the chief objects of the
League.
International distrust often arises
from misunderstanding which can be
removed by open conference; and
points of contact are points of mutual
comprehension. The influence of ex
ternal public opinion may well tend
to enlarge, and thus reduce what is
bad in excessive chauvanism without
lessening healthy patriotic spirit.
On Inquest of The World.
Disraeli once said that Parliament
was the great inquest of the nation.
The Assembly of the League may well
become the great inquest of the
world; the body where plans for the
betterment of mankind are advocated
and where codes of international law
are prepared and debated.
It may be observed that although
|each member of the League is en
titled to send three representatives to
the Assembly the voting is by states.
Some people have desired a great par
liament of the peoples of the earth,
but as yet that is utopian. The or-
