Besides its own complications, the dispute assumes greater importance and

complication because there are similar difficulties elsewhere. The case has something of the nature of a test case in a court of law. We do not find any fault with disputants for using the League as a court of law in the last resort, but in such a court good will and a real desire for a fair settlement are essential. Here we feel that the Hungarians are probably suffering a moral and material injustice, but we shall not be surprised if Rumania can prove its legality.
