A.

Canadians visiting Geneva, particularly those interest- ed. in the League of Nations or the International Labor Office," con- tinued Miss Browne. "It is much used and greatly appreciated by al] such official visitors. Information is supplied by it as to any or all the activities of these organiza- tions, Arrangements are willingly made for desired. interviews with officials or members of staffs of this or other offices of other na- tions, Then, too, although its first duty is to act as a link hetween the government of Canada the League of Nations it performs many other functions. "For Instance, secretarial assist- ance is most efficiently supplied to all Canadian delegations attending the various conferences in Geneva and any research work which may be needed is done expertly by the staff beforehand. If there happens to be in the European press or at a conference any mistaken refer- ence to our country the office is there to make the necessary cors rection and makes it. Not only that but it serves as an information bureau to proposed immigrants, to Inquiring journalists and to stud- ents, all of whom are given what they ask for or are referred to the proper sources at Ottawa."
