Dealing with the Italo-Ethioping war, he insisted that Anglo-French collaboration should more than over remain close and confidential, with the sanjo mutual understanding. The two countries should strive to secura pence, which was their constant ob- jective.
M. Laval hoped when the time came that an appeal would not be made in valu to Signor Mussolini and that he would greet the Anglo-French ap- pronches in a spirit of conciliation.

Some people had been surprised at the eagerness with which British opinion had rallied to the support of the League, but a people whose policy was based on a profound instinct for peace could hardly fail to be attracted to an organisation de- signed to abolish war and remove its causes. A country ne- customed to exercise a certain moderation of statement and outlook must inevitably support procedure under which Nations pledge themselves to abstain from extreme courses in their mutual relations.
Finally, he said, people accustomed to face big issues must .welcome and support an institution not only inspiring in its conception, but one which, with adequate support, was capable of dealing with so many of the world's maladies.

Sir Samuel went on to speak of the need for a strong and living League of Nations, and warned his audience against the inevitable tendency to consider the position of the League In whose custorly now are such solely in relation to some immediate problem. The League,
he said, had two functions.
"The first is to prevent war by removing the underlying causes which lead to war. The second function comes into play when war has broken out," he added.
