RUGBY, Nov. 23rd. Sir Austen Chamberlain was asked in the House of Commons whether he would use his good- offices with the Rumanian Govern-
neat in its dispute with Hungary.
He replied, "The League Council, did me the bonour, à very arduous and invidious honour, if I may say o, of naming me rapporteur, and associated with me, to assist me in my action, two other members of the Council That committee of three have used their utmost en- deavours with both parties to bring them to a friendly settlement of this unhappy dispute.”
The Foreign Secretary edded that his duty, as representative of this country on the Council of League, when entrusted by Council with the task of rapporteur on such a question, was to preserve 262 impartiality, and do his best-to-
reconcile the contending parties.
