Abstract
THE League of Nations was formed after the War A of 1914–18 to promote goodwill and peace among nations, and it is one of the greatest calamities of history that it could not achieve its objective; but it undertook many important surveys on international affairs, knowledge of which is useful for coming to the heart of the international problem. One is the Year-Book, published by the Labour Organisation of the League, which shows in tabulated form the production of commodities in the different political units of the world. This is indispensable for arriving at a proper estimate of the comparative economic condition of different units. The other was the report of the committee for framing an international calendar for the whole world, which, if it could have been adopted, would have gone a great way to promote goodwill and understanding among the principal nations of the world.
