In a word, it is international morality that is at stake. Have the signatures appended to a Treaty value only in so far as the signatory Powers have a personal, direct and immediate interest involved?

A
Suggests the League’s reliance on collective security is fundamentally sound
B
Emphasizes the practical over moral obligations in international relations
C
Argues for stronger enforcement of international treaties by military means
