The note ex- presses anxiety to fernitate, as a member of the Destrue, the ear lest possible settlement of the dispute, and adds that the Gov- extrment, in subscribing to the League Covenant, did not abandon or renounce its own free sovereign. judgment bat undertook to exercise it in accordance with the obligations of the Covenant.
