...Perhaps Locarno is a symbol of the realization of this fact. The unwillingness to submit to judicial settlement is conditioned by underlying factors inherent in the existing international system, which persuades nations to decline to submit what they consider important issues to the arbitration of impartial judges. Note the almost universal exception of questions of national honor, independence and vital interests, from arbitration treaties.

Now he stands forth as the "popular" bulwark to which M. Painleve looks...

With this action, the present "extraordinary sessions" of the Council were terminated. M. Briand and Mr. Chamberlain, beaming at such an addition to their Locarno laurels (TIME, Oct. 26, Nov. 2), summoned the Greek and Bulgarian representatives to drown their differences a l'Anglaise in "a dish of tea." Smiling, M. Carapanos and M. Marfov accepted-even joked with one another over the teacups...
