EARL OF CURZON BITTERLY
ASSAILS THE CONDUCT
OF WORK OF LEAGUE
BRITISH APPEALS FOR OUR AID
Ths international Difficulty Of the
League Of Nations Is Attributed to
Failure Of Body. to Function
II ls Stated

London.-An une Kpectsd attack on
the covenant of the league Of nations
WAS made in the house of lords by
Lord Curzon, secretary Of state for
foreign affairs. He declared that
many existing international difficul.
ties were due to the allies having
taken the wrong turning in the max
ing of peace, and he uttered a strong
appeal for the utmost American CO
operation with the allies.
The fereign secretary's speech was
made in the course of general dis
cussion on mandates in which he ad-
mitted that parliament was entitled
to more information, but he said this
was a subject involved in obscurity
The language of the covenant was
such that not even a trained lawyer
knew what 1t meant.
Lord Curzon entered into long ex-
PLANTATION of the British view, showing
that there had been no discourtesy
on the part of the British govern
ment, but circumstances beyond It's
control had prevented the submission
)f mandates to the Washington gov
ernment in the manner the latter re-
quired.
Regarding the present position he
believed there would be further post
)onement of the discussion on man
dates. Expressing the governments
extreme pleasure over the renewed
Amrican interst in European af-
fairs the foreign secretary said the
more cooperation in the manner best
suited to Americas own feeling was
granted the better 1t would be for the
worlds peace.
Lord CurzOn declared there was
force and reason in President Hard
Tags view that America was entitled
to be consulted before the mandates
could be entirely settled
