Sanctions In force are merely'pen-altieupon an aggressor nation agreed to by other nations who are Interested In maintaining or redeeming pence. Economic sanctions are trade "boycotts, In which the protesting nations refuse to buy from or sell to the aggressor. In their less severe form, economic sanctions may exist only with respect to materials which are essential to a nation engaged In a war, such as transport animals, metals, certain chemicals and munitions. The purpose, of course, Is to effect in the aggressor nation such a shortage of war materials that It Is no longer equipped to engage In war. Admittedly one of the Important ilia terlals of war Is fresh money; by refusing to buy from the aggressor, the nations enforcing sanctions can, If that aggressor has an inixirtant trade, cripple It financially until continued war tlueatens bankruptcy. Military Sanctions Are War. Carried to the ultimate degree, economic sanctions would deny to the aggressor nnilou all Imports of any kind whatever. Unless u nation were practically self aulliclent, these measures would eventually starve It Into submission or provoke It Into attack which, made against overwhelming odds, would ccituln ly result In its downfall. Military sanctions are really acts of war, since they are the tinned enforcement of economic sanctions. In the beginning they would consist of naval and military blockades to keep carriers hearing Imports or exports front entering or leaving the aggressor nation. The Allies up Germany In this manner during the World war. The declaration of sanctions Is delegated to the league through those articles In the covenant which are designed to prevent war. They are Articles X to X II. Since the prevention of war Is the primary purpose of the league Itseir, these articles are the l.fe blood of the great experiment. Article X won't work. The league was founded to assure the peace of the world, hut It was sh;tHd by the nations which came out on the winning side of the World war. who thought, none too altruistically, that peat. e could he mi. illumed by maintaining ilit status quo of l'dlO.
