S. NOT IN qHACO PARLEY Declines To Enter League Of Na-' tions Efforts To Settle Warfare GENEVA, Nov. 16, United States, it was learned today, has cllned to participate directly with the League of Nations in efforts to settle the Chaco war. i A letter refusing to Join the lea-. gue's Chaco conciliation committee was read at a private session of the Chaco consultative committee.

It was understood the United States agreed to continue cooperating in a friendly way with the league's Chaco work but chose to act independently and, especially at this late hour, not to participate in the committee.

Predicts Remarkable Things The bills comprising his "share-the- wealth" program, said Long, will do remarkable things. "There's lots of things in these bills they don't know about yet," said the senator. He did not say whether he was referring to members of the legislature.

The senator's most ambitious legislation is the statute proclaiming a two-year debt moratorium for har- rasses debtors. Would Fire Police Chief Another bill sets up a civil service commission, composed of state administration leaders, with power to remove police and chiefs. That will give Long control of practically all which she does not belong.

The letter was sent to Joseph A. C. Avcnol, secretary-general of the league, by Prentlss B. Gilbert, United States consul at Geneva. MOTHER WILL FILE APPEAL (Continued from Page One) the court of appeals.

The British think neither of the other two powers should take an extreme stand but should be willing to make concessions for a compromise which would prevent a breakup of the conversations and save the principle of naval limitation from being scrapped in favor of a ship building race.
