belligerent ships that have sought
asylum in our harbors and notably the
foray of the Prussian submarine U-53
have again emphasized the inadequacy
Of the marine league as the extreme
distance to which the marginal terri
torial waters of a neutral state may
extend. This arbitrary radius OF
three miles from the low water mark
of coast line, within the resultant
area of which neither hostilities nor
any belligerent right may be exer-
cised, was adopted toward the close
of the eighteenth century and repre-
scented the extreme range of the
heavy guns of that period.
But it is obvious that this limita-
ton is insufficient and in no way sat
isles modern possibilities or dangers
The range of guns has more than
quadrupled, and as this was the orig
inal standard the territorial waters
which state should control ought to
be measured by the longest possible
trajectory of its existing ordnance
The necessity of such extension has
been recognized not only for safe
guarding neutral waters but for the
purpose of regulating and preserving
the fishing. Therefore. the Institut
de Droit International took up the
question in 1894 and decided that a
zone of six sea miles ought to be con-
sidered territorial for all purposes,
and that in time of war neutral state
should have the right to extend this
zone to a distance from shore CORE
spending to the extreme range of its
heavy guns.
