Abstract

The League of Nations, whose guests we presently are in this handsome city of Geneva, is certainly the most· important of the associations of states because its purpose, the peace of the world, is the most noble. It is also one of the youngest of such associations. You do me a great honor, Ladies and Gentlemen, in asking me to introduce to you today two much older sisters of the League of Nations, sisters whose reputation is indeed less brilliant and universal, but of whom people may perhaps say what they say of married ladies: "The best are always those of whom nobody talks." These two older sisters are the International Union for the Protection of Industrial Property and the International Union for the Protection of Copyright on Literary and Artistic Works.
