POWERS EMBARASSED

Geneva, Sept. 12. Mr. Eamon de Valera's candid ut- terance in the League Assembly demanding more limelight on the discussions regarding the Soviet's admission has embarrassed the Powers dealing with this delicate problem.

Jurists express the opinion that official Assembly invitation would require unanimity, hence. the round-robin system of signing the invitation, in order to circum- vent the Soviet's objections to formal application.
