.J,. FAREWELL 85<br />

videatur. The Commission seems <strong>to</strong> me even worse in this<br />

respect than the League taken as a whole.<br />

It is precisely because I desire <strong>to</strong> work with all my might<br />

for the establishment of an international arbitrating and regulative<br />

authority superior <strong>to</strong> the state, and because I have this<br />

object so very much at heart, that I feel <strong>com</strong>pelled <strong>to</strong> leave the<br />

Co=ission.<br />

The Commission has given its blessing <strong>to</strong> the oppression of<br />

the cultural minorities in all countries by causing a National<br />

Co=ission <strong>to</strong> be set up in each of them, which is <strong>to</strong> form the<br />

only channel of co=unication between the intellectuals of a<br />

country and the Commission. It has thereby deliberately abandoned<br />

its function of giving moral support <strong>to</strong> the national<br />

minorities in their struggle against cultural oppression.<br />

Further, the attitude of the Commission in the matter of<br />

<strong>com</strong>bating the chauvinistic and militaristic tendencies of education<br />

in the various countries bas been so lukewarm that no<br />

serious efforts in this fundamentally important sphere can be<br />

hoped for from it.<br />

The Commission has invariably failed <strong>to</strong> give moral support<br />

<strong>to</strong> those individuals and associations who have thrown themselves<br />

without reserve in<strong>to</strong> the task of working for an international<br />

order and against the military system.<br />

The Co=ission has never made any attempt <strong>to</strong> resist the appointment<br />

of members whom it knew <strong>to</strong> stand for tendencies<br />

the very reverse of those they were bound in duty <strong>to</strong> advance.<br />

I will not bother <strong>you</strong> with any further arguments, since <strong>you</strong><br />

will understand my resolve well enough from these few hints.<br />

It is not my business <strong>to</strong> draw up an indictment but merely <strong>to</strong><br />

explain my position. If I nourished any hope whatever I should<br />

act differently--of that <strong>you</strong> may be sure.
