The reply reads as follows: "The principal Allied and Associated Powers note with satisfaction the de mand or the Austrian delegation for the admission of their country as an, original member of the League of N'a-!

On the contrary, they wish to reiterate that it is their hope and conviction that the league will at the earliest possible date include all nations that can be trusted to carry out the obligations accepted by members of the league. "They must point out. however, that in urging the claim of Austria to membership In the League as immediately necessary to the safety of their territory thff Austrian delegation have used some arguments which appear to indicate that they 'have not fullv appreciated the provisions of the covenant.

They see no reason whv she should not apply for admission to the League, in accordance with the provisions of Article I of the covenunt, at the earliest opportunltv that may present itself after the ratification of the Treaty of Peace.
