...Ultimatum." But Delegate Suritz is withal no great orator, and when the ghost of collective security walked the cold halls of the vast Palace of Peace at Geneva last week, he stayed at his hotel. Finnish Delegate Rudolf Holsti called upon the League to give Finland "all practical support possible," shouted: "Give us back peace!" Argentine Delegate Rodolfo Freyre, glowing with anti-Soviet hatred, was the spokesman for those who demanded that the Soviet Union be read out of the League. Swedish Delegate Bo Osten Unden moved that a telegram-virtually an ultimatum-be sent to Moscow asking that...

Later China supported League action against Italy in Ethiopia. But China, on the other hand, gets much of its war materials from the Soviet Union. Despite China...
Most of these are agents of Dictator Stalin's secret police, an unavoidable feature of diplomatic life in the Soviet capital. Meanwhile in Berlin the Soviet Ambassador Jacques Suritz, a Jew who by special dispensation of Der Führer is permitted to have Aryan housemaids (TIME, Nov. 25, 1935)> was throwing the biggest Red party of the year for Ambassador & Mrs. Davies and the Ambassador's 21-year-old daughter Emlen. The 50 pieces of Davies hand luggage and the 30 trunks were dispatched to the train by the Ambassador's two male secretaries...
