One member of the committée suggested that the question be submitted to the International Court at The Hague, but the sug- gestion found no favour since it was held that the League Assem- bly alone was competent to give an. interpretation of the League Covenant.

I view of the divergencies of opinion the committee refrained from putting the question to the Tote.
