are susceptible of causing conflicts of a political order. The technical organisations of the League of Nations are intended to deal with technical problems before they degenerate into political conflicts, and proceed then to resulutions by technicians belonging to the different countries. These auxiliary organizations deal in particular with : Organisation of Communications and Transit, Economic and Financial Organisation, Organisation for Hygiene.
Above these technical organisations placed on a higher plane, are the organisations of an autonomous character, and a more independent constitution and these can receive the collaboration of other States which are outside the League of Nations. These autonomous organisations are :
i. The Permanent Court of International Justice, founded in conformity with article 14 of Pact, under the auspices of the League of Nations, and which is juridically, a judicial international and independent organisation, based on an International Convention outside the Pact.
This Court is open to all the States of the World, including those which are not members of the League of Nations.
2. The International Labour Office is a branch of the League of Nations. This organisation was created, not by the Pact but by a special provision in the Treaty of Versailles (Part. XIII, Travail). It is founded on the basis of Social Justice, with the object of suppressing injustice, miser}' and privations in the conditions of human labour.
With a sense of justice and humanity, as a well as with the desire to ensure a durable world peace, the contracting States have resolved to regulate the organisation and the working of this autonomous organisation, with the object of realizing the purposes fixed by the principles stated above.
In consequence of the brilliant results obtained by the International Labour Office, the States can realise that the specialization of work placed under a direction having a certain degree of independence, and the development of the efforts for reaching the results desired, can only facilitate, and help the progress and purposes of the League of Nations.
