THE MOSUL DISPUTE.
APPEAL TO BE MADE TO COURT AT THE HAGUE
•
GENEVA," September 19th.
The sub-committee of three, appoint- ed by the League Council to investigato the evidence of the Mosul dispute, has now reported. It recommends that cer- tain points of a juridical nature should be submitted to the International Court at' The Hague.
Mr. L. S. Amery profoundly regret ted the adjournment, stressing the un- losirability of the postponement of a decision, both for Turkey and Great Britain. But much as he regretted the delay, Mr. Amery accepted the proposal of the sub-committee. All he asked of the Council was to expedite a settle- ment as soon possible, after receipt of the opinion of The Hague Court: NEED FOR RECONSIDERATION. As Rushedi Bey declined to renew the assurance, given by Fethi Bey at last session of the council, to respect the Council's decision whatever it be Mr. Amery declared categorically that similar sssurances by Britain fell to the ground and were null and void. Britain would bave to reconsider her position.
