Resolution to Loan Confederate Veterans Equipment Pass Senate. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. September 26.—Announcement is made by the committee in charge of reunion head- quarters that the resolution presented by Senator McKellar of Tennes- see providing for the loan of tents, cots and blankets for the reunion of United Confederate Veterans here on October 25-27 had passed the Senate and that the House would act at once. It Is estimated by Gen. Nathan Bed- ford Forrest, commander of the Sons of Veterans, that there will be be- tween 30,000 and 40,000 visitors pres- ent at the reunoin, and the local com- | mittee is arranging to care for all that come.

GENEVA, September = 26.—Re- ports in_circulation here this fore- noon, apparently on_unquestionable authority, that Dr. Fridtjof Nansen of Norway had resigned as commis- sioner for Russian relief of the titude toward his work taken by what he deemed the unfavorable at- titude towards his work taken by a subcommission of the league of nations, were later denied by Dr. Nansen himself. He said he had de- cided not to resign, but to fight out the question in the full commission, and then, If necessary, in the as- sembly of the league. The subcommission to whose ac- tion Dr. Nansen took exception was the one to which had been referred his appeal for £30,000,000 for Rus- | sian famine relief. It decided not to ask the assembly to appeal to the nations of the world for funds to feed Russia. The decision of the subcommissfon is said to have been influenced by _information_reaching jt that Great Britain had decided to withhold all credits to soviet Rus- sia. Dr. Motta of Switzerland ex- plained afterward, however, that the commission took the action it did be- cause it considered the allled con- ference to meet in Brussels October 6 to consider Russian relief was the prgper body to take up this appeal.
