ITALO-GREEK DISPUTE.
LEAGUE COUNCIL'S SCHEME.
(Reuter's Service to the China Mail.)
GENEVA, September. 6.
After an hour and a half's deliberation, the Council of the League. of Nations decided to send to the Conference of Ambassadors the whole of the minutes of to-day's proceedings, including the important reply of the Council to the Ambassadors' telegram, in which the Council makes a number of suggestions as the basis of a settement of the Halo-Greek conflict, including a deposit of 50,000,000 line with a Swiss hank by Greece as security for the payment of eventual indenuities, and the reference of the indemnity question to the International Court of Justice.
The Council thus refers the matter to the Conference of Ambassa- dors, but resefres the question of competence of the League for sub- sequent discussion.
The conflict, therefore, appears to be on a fair way towards
settlement.

The draft reply further suggests an apology by Greeer, a salute by the Greek Fleet, rendering military honours at the funerd service at Athens, the appointment of a commission of Enquiry by Greece, to which representatives of the three interested Powers be adjoined, and the appointment of representatives' of the League to supervise the judicial enquiry and trial of the accused.

OVERPAID?
OUR FIGHTING FORCES.
COMMITTEE URGES REDUCTIONS.
LONDON, September 6.
A more or less general reduction in the pay of officers and men of | the fighting forces is favoured by the renort of the committee appointed to enquire into the remuneration and conditions of employment of State servants, which considers the pay of the naval rating is too high and should be reduced parallel with reductions in the pay of the Army. It thinks officers up to the rank of Captain in the Army and Lieut-Commander in the Navy are at present paid more than necessary. The report commeads the Army Council's pay revision schemes and suggests a substantial reduction in the pay of junior officers and men in the Air Force. It sees no reason for an increase of pay in the Civil Service while suggesting a longer working day in London,
