Personally a perfectly agreeable character, M. Avenol has been little less than a disaster as Secretary-General, as every memeber of the loyal and cohesive body of international civil servants which grew up under Sir Eric Drummond would agree. Mr. Sean Lester, who will take charge temporarily of the skeleton which represents the Secretariat at the moment, can be counted on to do the little there is to be done with all possible efficiency. A quiet, but firm and decided, Irishman, Mr. Lesterdisplayed both courage and tact in the impossible post of High Commissioner of the League at Danzig, and he will hold whatever fort there is to hold as well as anyone could.

Transcription: To      hotel, Lisbon Dear Ned,       2/09/1940         Up to the last moment (and I men one o'clock on the 31st), he (Avenol) gave trouble and made difficulties in every possible way. He has gone out ignominiously, without grace or dignity or any other saving vitue .         I am afraid that he may have achieved some of his objectives and that we shall be very lucky now if we find we have any liberty of decision. Our rich friend spoke to the Northerner yesterday, on the coordinating question and although I had hoped for a rendez-vous by the sea, it appears that Mr. Square has two meetings a week elsewhere. They are not perhaps unbreakable arragements, but not enough people are available. I am going to make a last effort with Mohal. IF that fials we must try to do it on an individual basis.         (Jackler) Mr. Keys and I hope to get down to business on Wednesday the 4th and then he will communicate with you, perhaps with some suggestions. There are major questions of principle and tacties (methods) involved and the delay of the past month has, as was intended, created great difficulties.                                  transfer of Sec +         I had hoped that Snow could "benefit" by the new situation, but this week-end difficulties are reported at route.         You will probably have received a telegram on the problems here before this reaches you. I hope you have been having a restful time and enjoying the Atlantic breezes. For myself I am suffering grom some reaction and a lot of bad temper because I have been suppressing so much in recent times. I went to your house yesterday Sunday evening for a couple of hours and had a dive. All going well there and I saluted the various animals, each of which immediately fled. Tell Fernande, however, that a couple of small perches and some sardines were left to vary their diet.         I had a telegram this morning form Goodrich - "Confidence, good wishes" - which pleased me very much ; and I am to have a chat with the Manxman (UK Min tells)  to-morrow. Both our Latin friends have been very helpful lately ; number one, consistently so since his arrival and number two, especially for the last week or ten days; number two is going to the United States permanently in a couple of weeks.  Friday, September 13th.         There has been evidence in the past two weeks that the Germans planned to lay their hands upon the Institute for Intellectual Cooperation in Paris. They have been approaching - amongst others - Malcolm Davies, Costa du Rels, Pardo, Bourquin, and have not hidden in some cases that their aim is to use the Insitute in relation to Latin America. - I now hear that a definite proposal has been made at Wiesbaden that the Institute should be separated entirely from the League and operate under joint Franco-German (which means German) control.
