HADE B ASSENRLY - Approves “Geoeral Act” of Ar- hitration and Kindred Plans Geneva, 8ept. 26 (UP)—A con- certed move for world security and peace was made by the ninth assem- bly of the League of Nations today. It was the tinal important action of the session now closing, and perhaps its most tangible accomplishment. “The assembly unanimously ap- proved a “general act” respecting arbitration, coneiliation and the pa- afic settlement of disputes. The general act constituted the league's final work for security coupled with the Kellogg anti-war treaty, it was as a reason for a na- tion's refusal to wisarm. The act embodies the majority of the principles of the defunct Geneva protocol and is a result of the past vear's work of the league’s security commission. 1t embraces three model unilater- al treaties on the pacific settlement of@isputes and model bilateral treatics, on the same subject, provid- ing for mutual assistance and non- aggression. The league will submit the gen- eral act at once to all member na- tions. It will be accompanied by a rccommendation that nations who seel their sceurity threatened un- dertake at once the negotiation of the model treaties outlined in the act, or either a collective or separate basis. The assembly adjourned after to- day's procecdings. The assembly also adopted a res- olution today urging all states which have not yet done so to sign the optional clause of the world coyrt protocol accepting the court’s omigatory jurisdiction over all jurld- iclal disputes. Another resolution was adopted inviting the leagne council to offer its good services where efforts be- tween states for pacific settlement of disputes mect with serious diffi- culties. The council also was in- vited to offer its services to states in the same geographical area for the conclusion of regional agreements of settlement of “%ion-aggression and disputes, Today's three actions were intend- - ed.to permit league members to un- gerstand that they constitute the last and only posibilities of secyrity WNich the lcague can offer at pres- ane. “Xhe resolutions embodied the leggue's formal recognition of two of the most important international principles, namely: 1. Respect for the rights estab- lished by treaty is obligatory on in- ternational tribunals. 2. The rights of the several states so established cannot be modi- fied except with their consent. The only repercussion of the dis- pute aroused by Hungary and Ger- 1aany when they refused to vote xéterday on adoption of the Benes report on disarmament efforts came today from Roumania. N. P. Com- menc, Roumanian delegate, deplered Hingary's attitude and said it justi- fied Roumania in demanding guar- antecs of Hungary. The German and Hungarian ob- jection to the Benes resolution, which was adopted, was that it did not set a specific date for calling a disarmament conference. The reso- lution, after noting the steps taken by various nations to pave the way toward disarmament, urged & meet- ing of the preparatery cemmision ou disarmament at the end of this year or early in 1933, Germany wanted a date set for, a general meeting on disarmament, instead of a meeting of the preparatory com- mission.
