five nations, including the United States
and Germany, worked out the details of
the so-called Ter Meulen scheme, and
laid down a complete program for the
reconstruction of Austria, which only
awaits the release Of liens by the United
States to be put into operation. Finally,
is the health organization for co-ordlnat-
ing the activities Of the various nations
for the prevention of world epidemics, as
shown in the work already undertaken in
helping relieve typhus in Poland by
means of about a million dollars, contrib
uted by the members of the league and
in the perestn conference at London,
which America is officially attending, for
the international standardization of anti
toxic ser2.
HUMANITARIAN
TASKS ENTRUSTED.
Certain humanitarian tasks were also
entrusted to the league in the peace
treaties. First, is the oversight of the
inundated territories containing about
1900 900 backward peoples. Though the
United States several times delayed this
work by protests on points of detail, the
mandates for former German Southwest
Africa and the former German Pacific
Islands were confirmed a year ago; the
japanese and the Australlon govern
ments have already sent in the required
annual reports, and the permanent man
dates commission composed of colonial
experts begun its work of oversight.
At the same time, the Saar Valley, a
vital coal area Of about $4,000 people be-
tween Germany and France, has been as~
ministered for over a year by a league
commission composed of a French, Bel
gian. Danish, Canadian and Saarlouisian
member; and the free city of Danzig has
been enabled to work out its difficult re
lationships with Germany and Poland
through the protection of the league.
Similarly, some dozen treaties have been
signed with nearly all the nations OF
Eastern Europe and the Balkans prom
