Ch. XXX
3 §.

Art 8 At present it is
doubtful whether any

against a common enemy any preponderant demand for federation has
place at present in any instance.

Art 9 In respect of
security agst hostility,
no clear demand, comparison
had to other means

Art. 9. It does not appear that in respect
of security against host mutual hostility between member
