THE AUSTRO-GERMAN ACCORD

So now comes a flood of inspired talk about a new League, they call it a "Re- formed" League (much as people speak of a reformed drunkard). There is a certain kind of honest shame in this hurry to create a fresh League of Nations. It would be painful if, when the old ore was next dis- cussing sanctions at Geneva, Ex-Emperor Haile Selassie should turn up to listen.

IN WHAT FORM IS IT proposed to raise this new. Lengue from the ashes of the old?

Talks of bringing Japan back takes no account of Japan's urgent troubles in the Far East. They are troubles not likely to be solved inside an institution dominated by Western Powers,
