Then the question whether a disputed matter is justiciable or not must be tested by the established code of equitable principles devised to afford an adequate remedy where a legal right has been violated. Consequently they must necessarily invade some right of person or property. It can not be the right of a citizen of one nation or the other. such as the right of immigration or any other right that accrues to the citizen. or any number of citizens. rot only because the matter in dispute must be one between the contracting nations. but because such a matter could .not by any stretch of construction be one "susceptible of decision by the application of the principles of law or equity." It seems to me. Mr. President. thht if the representatives of these three nations had intended to exclude from the terms of the agreement every dispute that a nation is likely to go to war about. they could not have done it more effectually.
