THE LEAGUE'S FUTURE
"Will there be an extension of the activities of tlm League in the immediate future? That is a question which only that future can answer,'' writes Sir Eric Drumnitm/.1, .Secretary-General of the League of Nations, iii the "Observer." "The. League is a living and growing society of nations, and, measured by the span of life, stale m; federal or imperial constitutions, has hardly begun. It is reasonable to be expected that the League will one day include all the nations of the. world. The States members of the League have again and again expressed i heir desire' to see Ihe League fulfil the hopes of its founders by becoming universal. The tendency has been for increasing co-operation on matters of common concern between the League and Stales non-members. The terms of this co-operation, and whether or not it eventually involves or implies a formal entry into or association with the. League on the part of the States not members arc a matter for the Governments concerned to decide if and when they feel Ihe need fur anv such decision."
