How far did the Depression make the work of the League more difficult?

What was the Great Depression?

            With overproduction and falling demand, the capitalist economies broke down. The Great was a series of connected economic changes that hit the world's countries from 1929 and lasted well in to the 1930's. Factories closed, farmers went bankrupt and millions lost their jobs and joined long lines of the unemployed.

            Starting in the US, it US banks had lent money to business in European countries; when the Wall Street Crash happened the lenders wanted their money back.

How did the Great Depression lead to collapse of International Peace?
            When the Great Depression took place, Japan couldn't get any resources from the United States of America, and therefore it invaded Manchuria in China. At this time LON didn't take any actions against Japan. So LON was seen powerless and inefficient, during that time and this lead to collapse of Peace.
