Preparing to leave Anacostia by plane SPEARERS FLAY WARFARE STUDY Society of International Law Told Folly of Rules That Are Broken. On the eve of President Hoover's sub- mission to the Senate of the latest con- tribution to world peace—the London naval agreement—the American Society of International Law was chided by one of its members today for devoting so much attention to a study of war. Members of the society, all of whom have devoted their. careers to the study of international complications and their settlement, were told by two speakers, one a retired rear admiral, that the law governing the conduct of war at sea should be restated on the basis of ex- perience in the World War. Rear Admiral C. L. Hussey, U. 8. N., retired, and E. G. Trimble, instructor at New York University, seriously dis- cussed the subject in papers replete with references to warfare and indi- cated possibilities “in the next war.” Rules Declared Broken. When they had concluded, Prof. Charles G. Fenwick of Bryn Mawr Col- lege challenged the society “to find in the whole history of the law of war one rule of law that has not been broken.” Expressing disappointment that people still talk of war and rules for its cen- duct instead of a “constructive law of neace,” Prof. Fenwick said that one of the foibles of our experience is “trying to moralize on our immoral acts.” ‘The whole history of human experi- THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Variance of Horrors. «If a bullet weighing two pounds will blow up a man, why quibble over the use of a bullet weighing under one pound? If it is legal to use shrapnel. Why not use explosive bullets? It would seem to me that death by gas would be more to be desired than by explosive bullets.” Prof. Fenwick sttacked the whole theory of setting up rules of conduct in | war in so far as would apply to com- batants and non-combatants. Follow- ing his extemporaneous remarks he was sharply challenged by other mem- bers of the society. a too pessimistic view: that it was pos- able to protect the interests of neutrals and nmlvcomblslr‘lzs by setting up rules enerall eel . ¥ “Thery; I.s': rule,” Prof. Fenwick said, “to the effgct that there must be mo needless devastation. - A general in the Civil War destroyed everything in the Shenandoah Valley and another general set fire to every fence post between At- lanta, Ga., and the sea. That, of course, was deemed a military neces- sity.” Th direct answer to Mr. Trimble, who had suggested at some length a possible restatement of the law governing war at sea, Prof. Fenwick proposed that a | code of one article be established. “It should read,” he said, “that future wars shall be conducted by officers and men like gentlemen. I would add that the individual officer and man should be the judge of what constitutes a gentle- man.” ence in respect to rules of war, he said, has consisted of setting up certain rules, Rear Admiral Hussey and Prof. Trim- ble spoke seriously of possibilities sug- Several who an- | swered him said they thought he took gested by international complications and the tenor of all the addresses was that war is by no means an Impossi- bility. Referring to this apparent ac- ceptance of the theory that war is inevitable, Prof. Fenwick himself said there seems to be justification for it in world affairs today. The chief problem, the speaker said, in setting up rules for war at sea, is to reach a fair compromise between neu- trals and belligerents, to define what shall be contraband and to establish protection for noncombatants. The use of airships, submarines and high ex- plosives has virtually made obsolete the technique of blockade, and the speak- ers agreed that “in the next war”.there will be no safety for women and chil- dren unless distinction between com- 3 batants and noncombatants is main- tained. Other members of the soclety sug- gested that war at sea will not figure greatly “in the next war.” “Germany is going into the mechani- zation of its army, and it is the hope,” said a speaker from. the fioor, “that & ‘mechanized army will go through s popular army, such as would be called into service by France, like a knife through butter. For that reason the necessity for getting food to combatants will not be of such pressing importance, assuming that the German premise will be taken.” This afternoon the soclety devoted itself to a round-table conference on the documentation of international law.
