PREFACE The discussions upon questions of international law before the class of 1924 at the Naval War College, Newport, R. I., were, as in recent years, conducted by George Grafton Wilson, LL. D., professor of international law in Harvard University. The problems submitted to the class and their subsequent discussion required consultation of many documents, treaties, opinions, and writings. Some of the documents and opinions have been published by the Naval War College in earlier volumes. In this volume for 1924 there are published some of the ratified international agreements now binding upon the United States or upon other States, as well as some of the proposed but unratified agreements which have attracted international notice. C. S. WILLIAMS, Rear Admiral, U. S. Navy, MAY 28, 1925. III |
