The attempts to establish an international permanent criminal court started by the Committee of Jurists in 1920 to try crimes against international public order and the universal law of nations. The League of Nations drafted a Convention for the Creation of an International Criminal Court in 1937 (along with the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Terrorism), consisting of five judges and five deputies to be elected by the Permanent Court of International Justice. The Convention failed to come into force due to lack of ratifications. Therefore, the attempt to establish the Court also failed. Therefore, the correct option is B.
