League Draft Differs In France
The Tribune prints a letter from Phillip Marshall Brown arguing divergences between English and French texts of Article 21 of the covenant. The writer contends the issue concerns the validity of international engagements and the Monroe Doctrine, asserting the French text is exact and that the treaty text should not affect the drawing of arbitration and understanding. He urges the United States to uphold the Monroe Doctrine and insists the matter concerns the coverwar rather than the wording.

Agreement 10 Disagree Fails Over Wife's Custody
Mrs Alma Clayburgh sues Albert Clayburgh, a wealthy cotton broker of 290 Broadway and Mount Kisco, in York as she seeks to enforce a bizarre separation pact. The agreement assigns custody of Alma, age seven, to the mother and permits the father to visit, while vows bar both parents from speaking heatedly to the children about each other. It also obligates the husband to pay $15,000 annually to his wife while she remains unmarried, and fixes details like nurse hiring and even the physician to call for the children. She alleges the husband has fallen behind on the yearly payments and asks that support be brought up to date.
