SECURED THE ACCEPTANCE OF NEW DRAFT Which He Moved at the Monday Meeting of the Peace Conferesice at Paris, * ' Paris, April 0 ~The new draft 0 covenant is generally regarded as great improvement upon that which was first presented. It is be-. Heved that the Canadian delegates pressed strongly for certain amend~ ments, some of which are embodied in the new draft, while others were not aceepted. The Canadian repre- sentatives urged their views with vigor both before the commission and at meetings of the British delega- tion. Their belief, however, is that the one great advantage to accrue from the constitution of the league is that it will bring to the world first- hand discussions of world affairs. Through this understandingegood will and co-operation in maintaining world peace will naturally follow. Sir 'Robert Borden's chief activi tes have been devoted recently to an endeavor at reconciliation 'on the conflicting viewpoint Yespeoting' the form of the nine articles to be insert- ed in the peace treaty relative to 1a bor conditions. There has been a danger that the strong divergence of opinion on this subject would lead to the withdrawal of some members of the léague, as the labor convention is closely linked in every way to the League of Nations covenant. Sir Rob- ert was eventually successful in se- curing the acceptance of a new draft which: he moved at Monday's meet- ing. He was supported by Mr. Barnes, of Great Britain, and Mr, Vander veldt, of Belgium, and had also se- cured the assent of the United States, French and Japanese delegates, In a short speech Mr. Vandeérveldt state ed his hearty co-operation and the Borden amendment Mos. tl hn unani- mously ancoptod, 2 GRADUATES RSI ANNOUNCED AT THE KINGTON GENERAL HOSPITAL.
