A further point in Mr. Henderson's declamation, which deserves special} mention is that referring to the part the Council of the League may be called upon to lay in the matter of sanctions, Mr. Henderson declared there was no idea, and never had been un idea, of placing troops or ships at the disposal of the Council to use as it thought fit.
