DR, SCOTT SALS FOR SALAMANCA Georgetown University For- eign Service School Profes- sor on Way to Spain. % Dr. James Brown Scott, professor of international law at the Georgetown UniversitysSchool of Foreign Service, sailed from the United States yester- day for Spain in response to an invita- tion to take part in the inauguration of the Francis ot Victoria chair of in- ternationa! law at the University of Salamanca. Salamanca is the oldest Spanish uni- versity in the world, having been founded in 1230 by Alphonso IX of Leon. It has a special interest to American educators. for it was at this university that Christopher Columbus presented his plans to the faculty be- fore sailing on his memorable voyage of discovery. After his return from his first voyage, he lectured at the university on the resultg of his dis- coveries and the effect the new con- tinent would have on international re- lations. Tt was also at this university that Francis of Victoria, the real founder of the modern school of thought on international law, delivered the first series of lectures on that subject ever given. Studies made hy Dr. Scott confirm the helief that it was Victoria and not Grotius, the Dutch authority, who is generally held to be the founder of international law. This fact is to be brought out in a new book which Dr. Scott is preparing on the subject. On his way to Spain, Dr. Scott will visit Paris, where he will receive the unusual distinction of an_honorary doctor's degree from the University of Par He will return to Wash- ington the latter part of November. In the meanwhile, Dr. Thomas H. Healy, associate in the course on in- ternational law, is in full charge of that class. Annual Retreat Conducted.
