government officials of the end of all

mond, secretary general, in which he
said:
"Now that the league Of nations Is
no longer a provisional organization,
but has become established as a go
ing concern, the continued lack of de-
cision as to Americas course places
me personally in a position Of peculiar
embarrassment. In ORDER therefore,
to avoid any confusion or misunder-
standing as to my position as under
secretary general Of the league, 1t
seems best for me to tender my resig.
nation. do this with deep regret,
because do not like to appear to be
abandoning those with whom / have
been associated for the last few
months just at the moment when their
responsibilities and opportunities are
becoming real
"The league is now approaching the
point where it can begin to carry out
the worlds hopes for disarmament,
arbitration, the protection of back
ward peoples, the furthering of inter
national health projects and all the
other humanitarian issues upah which
we have been working for the past
six months, i feel sure, however, that
you will appreciate the reasons which
have led up to my decision, and will
recognize that If as an American |
now feel forced to withdraw from of.
fetal connection with the secretariat,
II is not for lack of faith in the
league"
