no part of the Covenant or of the Treaty does the conduct of the principal Allies present an aspect more suggestive of a desire to evade plain commitments. In a memoran dum transmitted by this Council to the Assembly on the 6th of Decem ber, when they were still without the text of any Mandates it is noted that Article 22 of the Covenant lays down two essential principles which apply to all peoples not yet able to stand by themselves who have ceased to be under the sovereignty of the State which formerly, governed them. (1) It is a sacred trust of civilisation to assure the well-being and develop ment of these peoples. (2) To ensure the performance of this trust the (South) Covenant stipulates certain guar antees the tutelage of such peoples will be entrusted to the nations which, Taland, ath Mar.

They will exercise this tutelage as Mandatories on behalf of the League.
