It is in line with the rules for the settlement of private dispates and gives most hopeful promise that just as law has grown up within nations between individuals so a system of international law may be established which will be effective among all peoples. In this connection. Mr. President. I may say that I should regret to see added to these treaties. either by the ratifying resolution or in the treaties themselves. an enumeration of specific exceptions such as the Monroe doctrine. immigration. or payment of State debts. It is perfectly clear that under any possible interpretation of international law at this time those would not be questions justiciable either under the principles of law or equity.
