"Beginning with the departure of the first American destroyers for service abroad in April, 1917, and closing with the treaties of peace in 1919."

For this purpose the parties agree to communicate
to the Secretary General as promptly as possible statements of their
case, all the relevant facts and papers, and the Executive Council may
forthwith direct the publication thereof.
[Sidenote: Terms of settlements to be published.]
[Sidenote: Measures to give effect to recommendations.]
Where the efforts of the council lead to the settlement of the dispute,
a statement shall be published, indicating the nature of the dispute and
the terms of settlement, together with such explanations as may be
appropriate. If the dispute has not been settled, a report by the
council shall be published, setting forth with all necessary facts and
explanations the recommendation which the council think just and proper
for the settlement of the dispute. If the report is unanimously agreed
to by the members of the council, other than the parties to the dispute,
the high contracting parties agree that they will not go to war with any
party which complies with the recommendations, and that if any party
shall refuse so to comply the council shall propose measures necessary
to give effect to the recommendations. If no such unanimous report can
be made it shall be the duty of the majority and the privilege of the
minority to issue statements, indicating what they believe to be the
facts, and containing the reasons which they consider to be just and
proper.
[Sidenote: Dispute may be referred to the body of delegates.
