FOREIGN MINISTERS IN GERMANY

With regard to the efficacy-of- sanctions, Mr. Baldwin said that probably with a world League of Nations, all acting at once, they would be completely effective. But they had not got that to-day. Therefore if the League at any time- in imposing sanctions get to any point where the aggressor nation would feel he would rather ight the League than endure them, the League has to be sure all those who have the power to help render that help immediately.

SECURITY TO BE MAINTAINED

Mr. Baldwin said that "in the nitimate unalysis the League it- self was an immensely superior force, but it was little good unless it could be employed immediately. If it could not, there was the awful danger of the slow dragging-in of one country after another, and a war whose end nobody could fore- tell

:

"The free nations of Europe to day have much to think about, 11 they hope to maintain their security, And for the small nations who look to the League, the measure of their support is their preparedness.

"We have, passed from platitudes to an area of stark realities," be concluded.

It was amidst the loud cheers of

the House that he appealed for the condence of the members.
