such a modest resolution at a
time when outside the league
much is being done to encourage
aggression and ensure it's success"
In the assembly lobby Litvinov
talked at great length with A.
Heidrich, Czechoslovakian dele
gate.
While the league delegates well
coined the four-power agreement
as an avoidance of immediate
war, some were disturbed by the
terms of the accord and the way
in which it was negotiated. In as
sembly corridors delegates, ex-
pressed belief that the terms i'm
posed on Czechoslovakia were as
harsh as those which might have
been inflicted upon a defeated en-
envy after war.
Particularly among the small
powers was there. ureasiness at
the emergence of four-powers
directorate to decide the fate of
Czechoslovakia. Hitherto, small
nations have oeen able to make
their voices heard in the league,
which despite its weakness offer
ed them some protection and act
ed as brake on big power deals.
Now the small nations fear that
Europe is returning to pre-war
methods, with the big powers i'm
posing their will on the small.
Soviet officials were reticent
about the accord but they have
predicted from the. beginning that
Britain and France would satisfy
Hitler at the expense of Czecho-
slovakia.
1t is assumed that Litvinov is
now chiefly concerned with the
possibility that the four powers
may form a permanent board of
directors to run Europe with the
Soviets on the sidelines. Litvinov
has sought persistently to prevent
formation of such a directorate
and consequent isolation of the
Soviet Union.
