The League Crisis
(To the Editor.) Sir, —The cable messages slate that the proposed peace terms submitted to Italy and Abyssinia may create a crisis at Geneva. In a recent issue ot a London paper was a report or an address given by Professor Zimmein at Oxford. It indicates a complete breakdown. The report read—“At another meeting Professor A. LZimmern, the well-known expert on international relations, gave a bni bant technical exposition of the political situation. He declared that the very odd thing about sanctions is that the League itself is not working them. The whole of the League machinery has completely broken down, and what is sitting in Geneva is not the ■League Council or Assembly,- but a special conference absolutely independent of the League, because the Covenant is so badly drafted that it allows the Italians the right of veto at meetings.”—l am, etc., PRO LEAGUE. Hamilton. December 13.
