This list covers letters from S. Lester to J. Avenol which figured neither in the League of Nations Danzig confidential files (now in archives), nor in S. Lester's folders of copies of his correspondence (1934-1936) with Secretary-General and League of Nations, obviously they are the more formal communications; as mentioned in G. Lippestad's letter these documents concerned: I. Participation of Danzig in International Treaties and Agreements II. Port and Waterways Boards III. Documents on Loans, etc. ; but they also concerned the appointment of the League of Nations High Commissioner, the Constitution of the Free City of Danzig, the Polish-Danzig Agreement of 6 August 1934, petitions, etc.
