Reds Block War Prisoners Return Plans Hit By Soviet Refusal
At San Sebastian the League of Nations debated repatriation of up to 200 960 European POWs held in Russia and 166 000 Russians in German camps. Dr Fridtjof Nansen said Moscow blocked the exchange and refused to guarantee transport. Plans to ferry Russians to Vladivostok were impractical without homeward guarantees. The session closed with private talks and news of an international university foundation in Brussels by a 107-society alliance to offer summer courses on international subjects with global student access.
