as a consequence of the late
war have ceased to be under
the sovereignty of the states
which formerly governed 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 peo-
pies form sacred trust of civ
ilization and that securities for
the performance of this trust
should be embodied in the con-
stitution of the league.
1.-THE best method of giving
practical effect to this princi-
pie is that the tutelage of such
peoples should be entrusted to
advanced nations who by rea-
son of their resources, their ex-
perience or their geographical
position, can best undertake
this responsibility and that this
tutelage should be exercised by
them as manufactures on behalf
of the league.
The character of the man

the stage of the development of
the people. the geographical
situation of the territory, its
economic conditions and other
similar circumstances.
