The Italian memorandum to the Lengue did not show that Ethiopia had done anything to produce a fundamental change in the status of the country.
The Swedish Government wish- ed the League to fulfil its respon sibilities and urged investigation into the slavery charges by the League brought against, Ethiopia.
JBr.. de Graeff. the Dutch Foreign Minister, said that when small Powers, who had remained neutral, for over a century joined the League they jeopardised that neutrality for the sake of the application of League principles, He urged the League to fulfil its responsibilities.
The fundamental difficulty was the unequal distribution of raw materials and the hampering of world trade by customs barriers and currency restrictions.
The complete application of the "Open Door" should be the pivot of the world system.
Holland was loyal to the League and wished to full all obliga- tions implied in the Covenant. -Routeri.
A British Wireless message states that Mr. de Graeff declar, ed that his government believed that no country should be per mitted to seize territory belong ing to another by force or vio- lence, and that need for expansion should not justify resort to force. For Collective Action
