When President Harding and Sec- jretary Hughes this week publicly ad- Vocate American adhesion to the jworld court, they are likely to stress {two vital arguments—first, that the | United States. ice 1836 to 1 . has fconsistently submitted international disputes to arbitration; and, secondly, that the states of the American Union | themselves, instead of warring with ( one another, have “arbitrated” in the Supreme Court of the United States. On no fewer than eighty-four differ- ent occ America has settled foreign sies before arbitra- tion tribunals.
