"Sweden has1 complete confidence in the League as a means of preventing future wars and proof in this lios in the fact that we unhesiatingly placed our case in its hands. I believe the stand the league has taken on the Aland Islands question furnishes proof to the world that the League, even in its present state is an efficient worlj court for hearing international difficulties and forestalling conflicts between nations. All that the League needs to make it a most effective and certain instrument of reducing future wars to the absolute 'minimum is the participation of the United States."
