Sidelights On The Permanent Court Of International Justice, Ake Hammarskjold Feb 1927

Sidelights On The Permanent Court Of International Justice, Ake Hammarskjold

Michigan Law Review

In bidding you welcome, in the name of the Permanent Court of International Justice, in this room where that great institution holds its public meetings and pronounces its judgments and opinions, my first word should be, I think, one of regret-regret that a more worthy representative of the Court has not been able to receive you here today. And I daresay that the President of the Court, who would have been the obvious person to welcome you, shares those regrets,-although perhaps from a different point of view. He would, in fact, have liked immensely to be able to meet you …

International Unions For The Protection Of Industrial, Literary And Artistic Property, M. Ostertag Dec 1926

International Unions For The Protection Of Industrial, Literary And Artistic Property, M. Ostertag

Michigan Law Review

The League of Nations, whose guests we presently are in this handsome city of Geneva, is certainly the most· important of the associations of states because its purpose, the peace of the world, is the most noble. It is also one of the youngest of such associations. You do me a great honor, Ladies and Gentlemen, in asking me to introduce to you today two much older sisters of the League of Nations, sisters whose reputation is indeed less brilliant and universal, but of whom people may perhaps say what they say of married ladies: "The best are always those …

The Legal Position Of Foreigners In Soviet Russia, Leo Zaitzeff Dr. Mar 1926

The Legal Position Of Foreigners In Soviet Russia, Leo Zaitzeff Dr.

Michigan Law Review

The Soviet Government has replaced the entire previous legal order by legislation of its own; it is therefore not surprising that even in well informed legal circles outside of Russia very vague and indefinite notions exist regarding the legal situation there. In the last few years moreover, many states have considered it necessary to recognize the Soviet Government. Since this recognition or even before, there have been some economic undertakings within &met territory by foreign individuals, but even these persons for the most part were entirely unfamiliar with the Soviet laws.

Canada's Treaty Making Power, C. D. Allin Jan 1926

Canada's Treaty Making Power, C. D. Allin

Michigan Law Review

The question of the treaty-making power of the Dominion of Canada was raised in an acute form during the negotiations between Great Britain and the United States governments over the halibut fisheries. After several years of investigation and negotiation, a draft agreement was drawn up by the American State Department and sent to the Canadian government through the British ambassador at Washington. According to the title and preamble of the treaty, the convention was drawn up between the United States and Great Britain, but by Article I, "The Nationals and inhabitants and fishing vessels and boats of the United States …

International Law--Treaties--Are The Rum Tretaties Self-Executing?

Michigan Law Review

On May 22, 1924, the United States concluded a treaty with Great Britain by which the latter power agreed that it would raise no objection to the search and seizure of its ships by American authorities on the high seas, provided there was reason to suspect that such ships were committing or attempting to commit an offense against United States laws, and provided the search and seizure were made within an hour's run of the American coast. In return the United States conceded to British ships the privilege of bringing into its ports liquor in bond in their ship stores. …

The New Law Of Nations, Edwin D. Dickinson Dec 1925

The New Law Of Nations, Edwin D. Dickinson

Articles

"In these disillusioned years which are the aftermath of the World War the law of nations has come to be regarded in many quarters with a kind of sophisticated skepticism. It is freely asserted that the law has proved a futile reliance, that it has broken down, and it is asked--with an air of unbelief too obvious to be misunderstood--What is there that is ever likely to be done about it?"

International Law--Witholding Of Political Recognition--Suit By Russian Corporation In Court Of Equity, Edwin D. Dickinson Nov 1925

International Law--Witholding Of Political Recognition--Suit By Russian Corporation In Court Of Equity, Edwin D. Dickinson

Articles

"The plaintiff corporation was incorporated in Russia under the Imperial government. Prior to the Russian Revolution it had deposited certain securities and moneys with the defendant, as trustee, as required by the New York statutes, for the protection of policy-holders and creditors. In this suit to compel the return of the funds the defendant claimed that the plaintiff corporation was no longer in existence because of the Russian Soviet decrees.... Held, that although the court cannot recognize the legal validity of the decrees of the Soviet government, the facts of the situation are such that justice and reason require …


The Russian Reinsurance Case, Edwin D. Dickinson Oct 1925

The Russian Reinsurance Case, Edwin D. Dickinson

Articles

Professor Dickinson's second commentary on Russian Reinsurance Company v. Stoddard and Bankers Trust Company: "The facts in the Russian Reinsurance Company case were without precedent. The Reinsurance Company had been incorporated in Russia in 1899 under a special statute constituting its charter and by-laws.... In 1917 the revolutionary Soviet Government was established in Russia and seven of the eight persons constituting the company's board of directors was driven into exile. In 1918 Soviet decrees nationalized the company, confiscated its property, and apparently terminated its corporate existence. Nevertheless, the exiled directors held meetings in Paris and continued to direct the …


Waiver Of State Immunity, Edwin D. Dickinson Jul 1925

Waiver Of State Immunity, Edwin D. Dickinson

Articles

"English and American courts have come to regard it as 'an axiom of international law' that foreign states should be immune from suit in the national tribunals unless they to the expressly or impliedly waive their immunity and submit to the jurisdiction.... Yet it has not been doubted that states may waive immunity and submit to the local jurisdiction if they wish. In practice they frequently find it advantageous to do so. Some difficult questions arise when it becomes necessary to define the requisites of a waiver or to determine its precise effect in a particular case."


The United States And The Mandates, Quincy Wright May 1925

The United States And The Mandates, Quincy Wright

Michigan Law Review

Although the United States has not yet become a member of the League of Nations nor burdened itself with any responsibilities in regard to the mandatory system established by that instrument for the government of former German and Turkish colonies, nevertheless (1) American influence was all important in gaining acceptance of the system by the Paris Peace Conference. (2) American influence was again felt in the process of putting the system into practical operation. (3) Finally the right of America to influence the future operation of the mandates irrespective of her ultimate relation to the League of Nations has been …


Recent Recognition Cases, Edwin D. Dickinson Apr 1925

Recent Recognition Cases, Edwin D. Dickinson

Articles

"The prolonged interval during which the United States declined to recognize the government functioning in Mexico, and the still more protracted period during which recognition has been withheld from the de facto government in Russia, have produced some unusually interesting problems with respect to the appropriate judicial attitude toward an unrecognized de facto foreign government."
