That it was quite futile to expect a restoration of trade as long as the peace of the world remained disturbed was the statement of Mr. Duncan Hall, of the Secretariat of the League of Nations, at a meeting of the Auckland branch of the Economic Society. Unless security could be felt fn world relationships, trade would even decline. He emphasised the difference between the outlook on world, affairs from 1920 to 1936 and since then. For ten years following the formation of the League of Nations there was a feeling that peace would not be menaced. Yet there was no justification for that feeling, as the causes of war had not been removed. In 1931 it was found that these causes were still operating, and with added force.
