Decision Reached On Eve of Opening of League of Nations Assembly.

By Joseph E. Sharkey, Associated Press Foreign ‘ital! (By Guardian's Special Wire)

GENEVA, Sept. 9, -- Arthur lien- derson, President oi the Disarma- ment Conference, and Louis Bar- thou. French foreign minister. a- greed this evening that. convocation of the conference would be futile un- til eariy November.

Their decision, reached on the eve of the opening oi’ the 15th amembly oi the League of Nations, definitely removed disarmament froln the pro- gramme of important intcrnationil political questions to be considered by the assembly.

Await Outcome

‘Barthou and Henderson decided, it was reported, that consideration of disarmament should await evolution oi the situation in Germany, the fate of the proposed Eastern Security Pact and the outcome of Barthous conversations with Premier Benito Mussolini of Italy next month.

Meanwhile league officials pointed out that should the Eastern Pact, urged by France, be concluded it would involve Germany's return to the League.

(The Eastern Pact. called the “Eastern Local-no", contemplates the binding together of Russia, Ger- many, Poland, Czechoslovakia and the Baltic countries in an agreement to aid any signatory attacked. Great Britain seconded France's sponrsor- ship of the pact, with the stipulation that it should operate within the framework of the League).

May Strengthen Fleet

While reports from Russian sour- ces that Japan contemplates strengthening Manchukuds navy stirred comment among delegates, especially in view of Russia's expec- ted admission to the League at this session. many nations were reported backing China's candidacy for re- election to the League council.

A report that Great Britain was leading the campaign to re-clect China, was denied by British spokes- men, but some League officials said both Britain and France feel that dropping China from the council might encourage Japan to pursue her pan-Asiatic policy.

Advocates oi the Chinese cause were influenced, it was said, by their belief that the balance in the Far East would be better preserved thereby.

Cattle Dying

Of Thirst In Yarmouth Co.

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

YARMOUTH, N. 8., Sept. iL-Cat- tie are dying of thirst on the pus- turcs of Yarmoulh County. Nothing more than light showers have fallen in this section of Nova Scotia for 43 clays. and the drought is inking a heavy toll. More than a score of cows have been found dead on lauds where in other years there was always plenty to eat and drink. One Kemptville farmer, searching through waste- lands for missing cattle, found eight carcasses beside what had been a. pool. Wells have dried up in country districts and formers who are saving their livestock are doing so only by carting water for miles. Many tra- vel into town by ox-team and carry barrels of water back to their farms.

The hay crop, while not seriously affected this year, will be extremely poor next year, farmers predict. Garden products have been burned by the sweltering heat. Cows are going dry, and some milkmen are having difficulty in supplying the needs of their customers.
