Letter from WSC to "The Times", on dislike of Lord Hugh Cecil [later Lord Quickswood] for Italy, France, Germany, the Soviet Union and Japan. Pointing out that these five nations were tje most warlike and heavily armed in the world, that they were arming night and day, and that with the exception of France they were all ruled by dictatorships and inspired by military aims. Suggesting that Lord Hugh should moderate his condemnation, to "put his censures in order of priority" and try to think less severely of the two least likely to endanger Britain's safely. Stating that without the support of at least three of these nations the League of Nations would be unable to help tje small, weak and poorly armed states and peoples [carbon].
