The most successful so
far is the Oslo Conference, compos-
ed of Belgium, Luxembourg, Den
mark, Finland, the Netherlands, Nor-
way and Sweden. It was organized
tn 1931 "to restore international
trade through mutual reduction yf
tariff quotas and other restric-
tions." Similarly the Balkan and
Danubian groups have mutual in-
terests and could co-operate. Use
of the Danube used to be free to all
nations and navigation on it was
controlled by an international com-
mission.
Co-operation among such logical
groups might well be promoted first,
with the greater federation coming
later, based on experience.

ment on reparations, sees the devel-

Henderson Daily News: No in-
ternational commission ever had a
problem so intricate and confused
as the peace conference will have
when war finaly ends in Europe.
Theirs will not be mere questions
of dividing the spoils, shifting boun-
daries, placing the blame.
Whole peoples have been juggled
around central Europe. Some have
been driven out of their homelands,
forced to seek refuge elsewhere on
the continent or on another part of
the globe. Others have swept into
their domain, taken over the land,
moved into their jobs,
have mixed up Europe's
to a point where logical

gargantuan, if not an
chore for peace conferees.
Long before war began, Jews
were being driven out of Germany
in great droves. Then, in line with
the policy of his axis-brother, Mus-
solini finally agreed to exile all
Jews who had not been in Italy be-
