ARTICLE TWENTY-FIVE.
To those colonies and territories
which, as a consequence of the late
war, have ceased to be under the SOW
| ereignty of the states which formerly
! governed them and which are inhab
tied 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
performance of this trust should be
embodied in this covenant.
The best method of giving practi-
| cable effect to this principle is that
the tutelage of such peoples be in
| trusted to advanced nations who, by
reason of their resources, their expe-
rience or their geographical position,
can best undertake this responsibility
|. and who are willing to accept it, and
that this tutelage should be exercised
by them as manufactures on behalf of
the league.
