S ment what effective military or naval

£ ’severally contribute to the armed
forces to be uaed to protect the cov

| “The high contracting parties agree,
g further, that they will mutually sup
■Z port one another In the financial and
•j: economic measures which may be
taken under this article, in order to
£ minimize the loss and inconvenience
g resulting from the above measures,
and that they will mutually support
one another in resisting any special
measures aimed at one of their num

and they will afTord passage through
their territory to the forces of any of

In Event of Disputes.
t
— “Article XVII.—In the event of dis
putes between one state member of
the league and another which is not a
member of the league or between
states not members of the league,
the high contracting parties agree
that the, state shall be invited to ac
cept the obligations «jf membership in
the league for the purpose of such
dispute upon such conditions as the
executive council may deem just, and
upon acceptance of any such invita
tion the above provisions shall be ap
plied with such modifications as may
be deemed necessary by the league.
“Upon such indication being given
:|i: the executive council shall institute
>:• an inquiry into the circumstances and
merits of the dispute and recommend
“ steps to be taken as seem to be best
and effectual.
“In the event of a power so invited
refusing to accept the obligations of
membership in the league for the pur
pose of a dispute which in.the case of
a state member of the league would
constitute a bread! of Article XII, the
provision of Article XIV shall be ap
plicable as against the state taking
such action.
To Settle Quarrels.
“If both parties to the dispute when
so invited refuse to accept the obliga
tions of membership in the league for
the purpose of such dispute, the ex
ecutive council may take such action
and make such recommendations that
will prevent hostilities and will result
in the settlement of the dispute.
“Article XVIII—The high contract
ing parties agree that the league shall
be intrusted with general supervision
of the trade in arms and ammunition
with the countries in which the con
trol of this traffic is necessary in the
common interest.
“Article XIX.—To those colonies
and territories which as a conse
quence of the late war have ceased
to be under the sovereignty of the
states which formerly owned them
and which are inhabited by peoples
not yet able to stand by themselves
under the strenuous conditions of the
modern world there should be applied
the principle that the well-being and
development of such peoples form a
sacred trust of civilization and that
securities for the permanence of this
trust should be embodied in the con
stitution of the league.
"The best method of giving practi
cal efTect to this principle is that the
tutelage of such peoples should be en
trusted to advanced nations who, by
reason of their resources, by experi
ence, their geographical position, can
best undertake the responsibility and
that thiB tutelage should be accepted
by them as mandatories on behalf of
the league.
“The character of the mandate
must differ according to the state of
the development of the people, the
geographical situation of the territory,
its economic conditions and other
similar circumstances.
“Certain communities formerly be
longing to the Turkish empire have
reached a stage of development that
their existence as independent nations
can be provisionally recognized, sub
ject to the rendering of advice toward
development and assistance by a man
datory power until such time as they
are able to stand alone. The wishes
of these communities must be a prin
cipal condition in the selection of the
mandatory power.
“Other peopieR, especially mose oi
Central Africa, are at such a stage
that the mandatory must be respon
sible for the administration of the
territory subject to conditions which
will guarantee freedom of conscience
or religion, subject only to the main
tenance of public order and morals,
the prohibition of abuses such as the
slave traffic, and the prevention of the
establishment of fortifications or mili
tary or naval bases and of military
training of the natives for other than
police purposes, and the defense of
territory and will also secure equal
opportunities for the trade and com
merce of other members of the
league.
"There are territories, such as
Southwest Africa and certain of the
South Pacific islands, which, owing to
the sparseness of their population, or
their small size or their remoteness
from the centers of civilization or
their geographical contiguity to the
mandatory state, and other circum
stances, can be best administered
under the laws of the mandatory states
as integral portions thereof, subject
to the safeguards above mentioned in
the interest of the indigenous popu
At* ViVU*
Must Make Report.
“In every case of mandate the man
datory state shall render to the league
an annual report in reference to the
territory committed to its charge.
“The degree of authority, control or
administration to be exercised by the
mandatory state shall, if not previous
ly agreed upon by the high contract
ing parties in each case, be explicitly
defined by the executive council in a
special act or charter.
"The high contracting parties fur
ther agree to establish at the se^t of
the league a mandatory commission
to receive and examine the annual re
ports of the mandatory powers, and to
assist the league in insuring the ob
servance of the terms of all man
dates. , t
“Article XX.—The high contracting
parties will endeavor to secure and
maintain fair and humane conditions
of labor for men, women and children,
both in their own countries and in all
countries to which their commercial
and industrial relations extend; and
to that end agree to establish as part
of the organization of the league a
permanent bureau of labor.
•
Arrangements for Commerce.
"Article XXI.—The high contract
ing parties agree that provision shall
be made through the instrumentality
of the league to secure and maintain
freedom of transit and equitable treat
ment for the commerce of all states
members of the league, having in
mind among other things, special ar
rangements with regard to the neces
sities of the regions devastated dur
ing the war of 1914-1919.
"Article XXII.—Tlje high contract
ing parties agree to place under the
control of the league all international
bureaus already established by gen
eral treaties if the parties to such
treaties consent. Fundamentally they
agree that all such international bu
reaus to be constituted in future shill
be placed under control of the league.
Must Publish Treaties.
"Article XXIII. The high contract
toing parties agree that every treaty
or international engagement entered
into hereafter by any state member
of the league shall be forthwith regist
ered with the secretary-general and
as soon as possible published by him,
and that.no suoh treaties or interna
tional engagement shall be binding
until so registered.
“Article XXIV.—It shall be the
right of the body of delegates from
time to time to advise the reconsider
ation by states—members of tbe
league—of treaties which have be
come inapplicable, and other interna
tional conditions of which the con
tinuance may endanger the peace of
the world.
Article XXV.—The high contract
ing parties severally agree that the
present covenant Is accepted as abro
gating all obligations which are incon
sistent with the terms thereof and
solemnly engage that they will not
hereafter enter into any engagement
inconsistent with the terms thereof.
In case any of the powers signatory
hereto or any which are subsequently
admitted to the league shall, before
becoming a party to this covenant,
have undertaken any obligations
<
which are inconsistent with the terms
of this covenant, It shall be the duty
of such power to take Immediate steps
to procure Its release from such obli
gations. ■
“Article XXVI—Amendments to this
covenant will take effect when rati
fied by the states whose representa
tives compose the executive council
and by three-fourths of the states
whose representatives compose the
body of delegates.”
