On July 25, 1923, at Geneva, during a meeting of the Permanent Mandates Commission at its Third Session, Sir page 109Frederick Lugard, the British member, said—"that total prohibition was now in force in Samoa. It would be interesting to hear how this regime had succeeded in regard both to Europeans and others." This observation apparently elicited no reply, and on August 3rd "Sir F. Lugard inquired whether the total prohibition imposed in Samoa had proved a success. Sir James Allen replied that its unpopularity was less than formerly."
