NO HOPE OF FURTHER SANCTIONS

Small Nations Lose Fight at Geneva

"LEAGUE HAS ABANDONED

VICTIM TO HIS FATE"

Geneva, July 2.

Having previously taken the bit between their teeth and vehemently protested against the abolition of anti- Italian sanctions, the small nations to-day accepted the. inevitable and turned their attention to an immediate and thorough overhaul of the League Covenant, though they are in no way unanimous with regard to the methods to be employed.

Dr. P. R. Munch, Danish Foreign Minister, preferred improvement in the operation of the League

to a revision of the Covenant,

Sir C. J. Parr, the New Zealand High Commis- sioner, advocated inviting all non-member states to attend the Assembly session in September,

Jhir. A. C. D. de Graeff, Holland's Foreign Minister, favoured modification of the Covenant because recent events had killed the hope of more satisfactory results if another case of aggression by a League member

arose.

The Assembly was most impressed by Mr. Eamon de Valera's thorough-going proposal that the Great Powers get together and make sacrifices, because by a fraction of the sacrifices war would entail, the present menace could be averted.

London, July 2

Flat denial of reports that his health was "breaking up" and that his resignation was im- minent, was made by Mr. Stan- ley Baldwin, the Prime Minister, when speaking at a banquet in London to-night celebrating the city's Conservative Association Centenary:

"When I feel incapable of sustaining the burden I shall pass it on, but it is for me to. decide," he declared. "No-on will dictate to me."

He had obviously benefited by his brief holiday.

It is emphasised that in a month's lime Mr. Boldwin will probably be able to leave London for an CX tended holiday which should con-
