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 practical
effect to this principle is that the
tutelage Of such peoples should be in
trusted to advanced Nations who by
reason of their resources, their exper-
fence 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.
The character Of the mandate must
differ according to the stage OF de-
veiopment of the people. the geo.
graphical situation Of the territory, its
economic conditions and other similar
circumstances
Certain communities formerly be-
longing 10 the Turkish Empire have
reached a stage of development where
their existence as independent Nations
can be Professionally recognized sub
ieet to the rendering Of administra-
tive advice and assistance By a Man
datory until such time as they are
able to stand alone. The wishes OF
these communities must be a princi-
pal consideration in the selection Of
the Mandatory.
Other peoples, especially those OF
Central Africa, are at such a stage
that the mandatory must be RESPONSE
bic for the administration Of the ter
ritorv under conditions which viii
guarantee freedom Of conscience and
religion, subject only to the mainten'
ance Of public order and morals, the
prohibition Of abuses such as the slave
trade, the arms traffic and the liquor
traffic, and the prevention OF the es-
Establishment Of Notifications or mil
| itary and naval bases and Of military
training Of the natives for other than
police purposes and the defense OF
