impartiality Of their courts. Those states, even
the smallest of them, have a right TO de-
mand that force shall not be used against
them any more than against the great powers
But in order to enjoy that right and that inn
munity they are under the compulson to make
their governments as trustworthy and their
administration OF justice as impartial and equi-
table as those of the great powers Happily, il
is 10 be believed that most Of them are ap-
preaching such a status Some OF them have
fully attained it. Nobody thinks of using force
against Mexico or Argentina or Brazil for the
collection of claims, although years ago it was
employed against the two first named cOun-
tries. That is because nobody doubts the sta
bility and integrity of their governments and
the equity and impartlality of their courts 1t
is to be hoped that all of the Latin American
states will soon attain similar standing be-
fore the world. We would not say that the
desire of having the CalvO-DragO Doctrine uni
versally accepted, and of thus securing for
themselves immunity against fOrcible interven-
tiOn, should be the chief incentive to such prog
ress; but we may confidently say that nothing
would more commend that doctrine TO the world
for its acceptance as international law than for
the states which now request its acceptance TO
demonstrate their entire worthiness of it.
