The League will again have to struggle with the dead-
lock between Poland and Lithuania. The Polish delega- tion will be a strong one headed by the Foreign Minister. We have said many times that Poland seized Vilna wrongly and that, if her aims have been justified, her methods certainly have not. There was no excuse for General Zeligowski's action nor for the encouragement that he undoubtedly had from Warsaw. But it is impossible after the years that have passed to say that the matter ends there. M. Valdamaras alienates all sympathy from his country by his stubbornness which he does not abate one jot. This is not good policy on his part, nor does it show good faith after promising at Geneva to make concessions to the general opinions. He has certainly not carried them out in the spirit, though according to the letter be has ended the state of war with Poland.
