Abstract

Courage Wanted at Geneva
Murphy, M. Farmer | March 23, 1932 issue

A courageous stand by the Assembly of the League of Nations against the Japanese war would not only revive the dwindling faith in the League as an efficient instrument, but it would also be a striking example to the Disarmament Conference and a warning to it to do its clear duty. The action of the League Council in dispatching a note to Japan reminding her of her responsibilities, and its last minute appeal for an extension of the Shanghai ultimatum in order to allow attempts at a peaceful solution were signs of a changed attitude since its shilly-shallying behavior of last fall.
