" Canadian Envoy
Gives Reason for
Article X Stand
Does Not Wisli to Involve Self
" In "Preservation -' of Terr
, torial Integrity of AU
Members of League."
1 Ottawa, DaiS' 8. Canada's prin
cipal objection to Article X1 of the,
.league oi i nations covenant. is inai
- s,he does not wish, to involve herself,
rin the preservation of territoriann.
, tegrity ' and jexis'ting political . inde
t pendence of 'all th members of the
league of nations," Sir Robert Bor
den, head of the Dominion peace
!clepation. asserted in a memoran-
Uuni made public today.
The memorandum further sets
t forth' that ,rth jindertaking incjuded!
i in this clause ot ,tne articLe seems
to involve icariful survey,'; con
sideration and. determination of all
. ' territorial questions between the"
' varous states'' and declares that
"even if such a survey, were prac
, ticable, it would be impossible to
t forecast the future." The memor
; andum says further: V
1 1 ; Gives Other Reasons. .
I- "The signatories to the covenant;
li are called upon to declare-(a) that
. i all exisiting territorial v limitations
J. are just and expedient; (b) that
j they will continue indefinitely to be
2 just and expendient; (c) that the
V signatories will be responsible there
in for.
"There may be national aspira-
t 1 1 1
tions to -which .the provisions of the
peace treaty will not do justice and
which cannot be permanently re
pressed. Subsequent articles con
template the possibility of war be
tween two or more of the signa-
tories under , such . conditions, that
the other signatories are not called
upon to participate actively therein.-
If, as a result ot such war, the na
tion attacked occupies and proposes
to annex (possibly with the consent
of a, majority ot the population) a
portion of the territory of the. ag
gressor what is-to. be the operation
of this, article?.
v Article Inconsistent. -V'Indeed
the article..' seems incon
sistent with the provisions of
Articles 'XII toJXVII, , inclusive.
Obviously a .dispute as to' territory
within the meaning of the six ar
ticles last referred to. under which
a disposition of the disputed ma
terially different from that proposed
by Article X might be reached, Ar
ticle XIV does not seem to remove
the difficulty." .'':?.
. The. memorandum, ' Sir Robert
said, was circulate inv 1919 to mem
bers of the committee charged with
the duty of oreoarinn' the covenant.
but the views expressed i therein' did
not prevail,, as ; Article X, was em
bodied in the final text of the
Lcovenant in virtually'the same terms

-.Libby Epstein,. 16, ' 2055 North
Nineteenth street, student at Com
mercial High school, was awak-
tned early, Tuesday morning by a
strong light shining in her eyes.
She turned her head to avoid the
radiance but the light followed her
movements. At first she didn't
realize what the light was. It came
closer and closer. Soon a man's
hand began to pass slowly hack and
forth over her pillow. It finally
located her, then stopped. LlbbjP
then realized what this meant. The
light was a flashlight" and the hand
groping abouj-her piHgw: belonged
to a burglar: , "'
' Thinks of Baby.
Her first impulse was to call her
parents, Mr.and Mrs. Alex Epstein,
in the next roomatid then she
thought of her baby sister, Edith, in
bed with her and yhat might hap
pen to both of them if she gave a
warning and she tucked 'ner head
under the pillow, too frightened to
move. Outside she heard an auto
mobile being driven away.
She lav: auietly for a lonk time
when she was aroused by flie voice
of her mother. . .;

"O, Mmma, I'm so glad yoa
came in, Did you see him?"
"See who?".
"A burgldr."
And then..Libby told , her mother
all about the flashlight and the hand
groping about her pillow.
Money is Missing.-
Mrs, Epstein made a hasty survey
of the house and found the rear door
open. She came into the room oc
cupied by herself and husband and
found Mr. Epstein's clothing strewn
over the floor, the pockets turned in
side out. Thirty dollars was missing.
The burglar Jiad made good his
escape and it was too 4ate to call
the police, but Tuesday a full ac
count of the robbery was given to
two detectives who visited the
Epstein home. They said two men
had committed the burglary, , ;
-Cannot Sleep.
" "I'm glad Libby did not call us,"
Mrs. Lpstein said. "Something
dreadful might have happened for
any burglar mean 'enough to come
into a poor man's home and steal his
last penny is mean enough to do
anything.
"Libby has been so wrought up
over, the burglary she1 has been un
able to sleep. Every automobile
she hears in front of the house
frightens her as she imagines it is
another burglar coming to ransack
the house again.
House Is Dark. .
MI don't know how long the bur
glars had been gone when I woke
up, but when I did the house' was
dark. I thought that very peculiar, as
I always leave a gas jet burning. My
first thought .was that the wind had
blown ixout and that perhaps my
children were overcome by escap
ing gas.. I ran into' their room and
8wakene4 Libby who told me of see
ing 4he burglar. I think the burglar
turned out the light when he entered
the house." ..
, Halts Peddler.
Mr. Epstein, who is a market ped
dler, had borrowed the money the
day before, intending to buy a wagon
load 6f produce to sell. When the
money was taken Mr. Epstein was
forced to stop work until he was
able to borrow more money and
buy produce with whieh to carry on
his business again.
v "Why should we be robbed of all
the money we had," Mrs. Epstein
asked tearfully yesterday. 'Now wc
are. in debt i.nd we can't buy any
thing for the children until that's
paid back. Surely, there are rich
people the burglar rould have robbed
of 30 who wouldn't have missed it
