Incredibly minor nitpick: I believe the palace of nations was built in the 1930s, not taken over by the League. Philip Gibbs tells of talking to workmen building the palace in 1934 in his _European Journey_ (1934). See esp. pp 106-107

It may be minor, but little details make up everything. Thanks for the comment, and the reference. I'll have to dig up a copy. The wording may have been too vague, but the intent was to convey that the LoN was stationed there as they built the Palais to house it intentionally. That's my historical understanding, which I freely admit may be incorrect. Somewhat later, after the LoN was defunct, the UN found use for it. Now I need to find an expert in European History... still, I'd like to be as accurate as possible. Thanks.
