If it was aproved ,something might changed at that time.......

Very interesting Caster, thanks!!
It becomes more interesting when one thinks Japan's frustrations during negotiations with other countries, in which Japan felt discriminated against, was one of the reason of WWII.

It has to be taken with a grain of salt though; the proposal was posed because they only wanted discrimination against Japan to stop. According to the video (I am wary of the reliability of such documentaries by the way) England opposed it because of colonial ties with other countries. Might be true, but at the same time Japan had claimed Shandong, which was opposed by the Chinese. If it were a real altruistic act the would have let Shandong go, wouldn't you think?

But still, very interesting. Makes me wonder how the world would have looked like if the proposal was accepted..

The racial equality proposal:
"The equality of nations being a basic principle of the League of Nations, the High Contracting Parties agree to accord as soon as possible to all alien nationals of states, members of the League, equal and just treatment in every respect making no distinction, either in law or in fact, on account of their race or nationality."
It took Japan until 1995 to sign an international treaty against racism and discrimination. Here we are 12 years later, and they have yet to enact a single law to enforce such a treaty within its own borders. Think about it. Tip of the iceberg of hypocrisy.
