doomed critical and active hostilities

"" rucommenaed the reorganization
of The Hague tribunal. Speaking of
the defects in mixed claims commis
sions, he said:
"As ordinary constituted, these
commissions consist of one member
from each of the litigant states and
an umpire from a third state. It not
infrequently happens that the case
goes to the single umpire, who is re
quired to decide complicated ques
tions which might well tax the learn
ing of the supreme court of the United
States, even when instructed by trials
in the lower courts and by full ar
guments at the final hearing. Either
the commissioners should all be ap
pointed from third states or the num
bers of the commission should be so
increased as to include nf ion ...
from third states.
In his invitation to participate In
The Hague conference the emperor of
Russia included only two American
states-the United State, and Mexico.
The result is that The Hague tribunal
as now constituted is p?acticallv i
