BXRRISBURG TELEGR3LPH LEAGUE AWAITS RATIFICATION Wilson Will Preside Kven if I'niled States Is Out of First Meeting Washington, Oct. 17.—While no otticlal declaration can be made in advance of the action of the Senate on the Treaty of Versailles, it is learned that plans were being laid for bringing the League of Nations into existence almost immediately upon the publication in Paris of the ratification of the Treaty Great Bri tain, France, Italy and Germany which will put it into force. Although the United States can not partcipate in the initial stages of the League's work, it is under stood thut the decision has been reached to have President Wilson issue a call for the first meeting of tlie council of the League within the 15-day period provided in the Treaty for the appointment by the council of three members of the commission wiiich is to determine the boundary of the Saare, basin. Article five of the Covenant pro vides that decisions of the council "shall require the ugreement of all of the members of the League rep resented at the meeting," and it is hold that this does not specifically re quire the attendance of an American member to legalize such decisions. No less than 15 commissions cre ated by the Peace Treaty appear to require American participation and certain plebiscites confirming title to various disputed territories also are to be conduced under a joint inter national control. The present view of the officials here, however, is that representatives of Great Britain, France, Italy and possibly Japan, whose ratification of the Treaty is expected daily, will function in these matters without any challenge of the legality of the proceedings on ac count of the absence of the Ameri can representatives.
