  • the second refers to the Montenegro problem in the wake of the First World War
  • and the third one consists of material on Belgian Congo.

The collection consists of pamphlets and reports, newspaper clippings and extensive correspondence (Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society, Union of Democratic Control, etc.).
