represent threo different schools of thought.
Mexico, a fairly recent recruit to the League, one of its most loyal and en- 10thusiastic members
There is, in Benor Cardeuns' reply, an insistence on the supreme import- ance he attaches to membership of what Continentai journalista call "the Geneva institutions."
It is impossible." he says.. " to repurate the problems of one given region from those of the rest of the Globe."
In other words, Mexico is steadily opposed to any idea of a “break-away ` American League of Nations.
Scathing
GUATEMALA, at the other end of
the scale, has just resigned her nembership of the Lengue, and wants all the others to do the slitne.
She proposes an American Leagus and an American Court of Inter- national Justice-implying withdrawal not only from Geneva but from The Ingate.
Nor is time tendency confined to Guatemala. All the intrigues which group round the Ilonre-Laval affair have done the League immeasurable ham in South Anterien.
The Colomblas reply, for example, speaks of the regret with which Colombia has seen the Lèngue ? sub- ordinated to the interest of the Great European Powera."
And-cathingly-"we have recently seen with surprise that there were Staten which wanted to convert an organian dreated to prevent. re- strain and punish aggression, inte an instrument of imperialist terprise."
A Mixture
en-
CHILE, third member of the sub-com- mittee, stands betwixt and between. Señor Alessandri wants "an Ameri- can effort to complete, and reinforce those of the League of Nations and other organisations for the prevention
of war."
But he holds that "the juridical-sys- -Leu---regulating-international-rela
tions cafinct be the samɗ for the entire world,"
He seems to want it is not very oldar either an American League somehow linked with a World League: or else some kind of American paci which would be open for signature by non-American States; or some mix- ture of the two.
But it seems certain that in some fort or other "relations with Geneva " will be put on the agenda., And that will give the Conference (which

Purifying Politics
LEON DEGRELLE, Leader of the Revista, whose succeed was the sensation of the Belgian elections, is a Fascist with a dicarence.
His speciality is religion. The “Tax" which gives name to his Party is "Christus Rex"--"Christ the King": stolen, I think, from the Maxlonn Clericala,
Its slogan is the purification of politics: deriving partly in an odd sort of way from the old Belloc-Chesterton- New Witness Movement here, partly from the slogans of tha Prench Right, He attacks the bankers—“ banksters is the term he has coined-in the name of religion. But at the same time he attacks Parliament and democracy, and claims to be the Heaven-sent Leader of the Belgian people.

Starhemberg in brilliant. daring1nts tractive, but very weird, and fond of many things besides politics.
Schuschnigg is dull by comparison, but for an Austrian, incredibly serious- minded; a steady worker, always at his desk; never taking his mind off his work; playing a sober, enreful, thought- ful game.
Fillciency has defeated brillance. But all the same it would be a mis- tako to regard the Chancellor as the , real "strong man" of Austrin.
The real driving force, the hard will behind Schuschnigg's rather pedestrian eficiency, in Colonel Adam, who is both Minister of Propaganda and Secretary of the "Fatherland · Front.”
