The annual International Homeopathic Council meetings which were in
fact sort of International Congresses had been restarted immediately after
the First World War. The League had also been formed at one of these Council
meetings. The IX Quinquennial International Homeopathic Congress, which
was scheduled for 1916, but could not be held because of the First World
War, was held at London in 1927.
At this Congress, it was proposed that, "In future
international business would be entirely in the hands of the International
Homeopathic League. In order to regularize that position, Congress
must formally pass a resolution. Hitherto there has been no authority
to the League from the Congress, because no Congress until now had had
the power to say that it definitely approved of the activity. The League
grew out of the Council, and the Council was responsible for the Congress.
It was hoped that the Congress would express its strong approval of the
League and its desire to hand over the business in future to the League."
Thereafter, the following resolution was proposed and
unanimously passed: "The International Homeopathic Congress
approves the constitution of the International League as formulated at
the meeting of the League in 1925 and as discussed and modified yesterday
afternoon, July 22, 1927."
The organization of the Quinquennial Congress, as hitherto
existing, now ended.
The League was thus given the stamp of approval and recognised
as a representative body to meet annually and "carry on," officially,
during the interim between the assembling of Congresses and was formally
handed over charge of all international activity and the Congresses.
The aims and objects of the League were summarised as:
"First of all, every Homeopathic physician should
belong to the League affiliation of his own country. The aim of the League
was to unify under one nominal head all the Homeopathic institutions
of the world.
As to the method, it was considered advisable that there
should be a League meeting every year for business purposes, and a Congress
meeting every fifth year for scientific as well as business purposes .
. . A League representative was needed in every country all over the world.
In that way, the strong countries could help the weak; the weak could
give one or two suggestions to the strong, and Homeopathy could be
made a world institution."
