tribute be paid to any lawyer than
that which Professor Dicey, himself
an eminent authority, paid to
Cohen: "The death Of Arthur
Cohen has robbed the Bar of one of
it's glories. He came as near as a
man could to the ideal of an Eng
fish lawyer" (Law Quarterly Re
view, 1916, o6). His great success
was due to the combination of two
characteristics, "great mental power
which, applied to the study of law,
gave him legal genius" and "a mag
nanimity or greatness of soul'
which Dicey pertinently remarks is
not invariably found in men of
powerful understanding. Arthur
Cohen was Junior counsel to Sir
Rounded Palmer afterwards Lord
Selborne), in the famous Geneva
Arbitration of 1872, relating to the
Alabama claims, and was also coun-
sci for Great Britain in the Vene-
zuela Arbitration of 1908. He was
eminent1y we'll fitted to present his
country's case before both these
tribunals by reason of his special
knowledge of admiralty law and the
shipping trade. After the Geneva
Arbitration, he was offered a Judge
ship which he declined. In 1906 he
served as member of the Royal
Commission on Trade Disputes and
Trade Combinations, and was ap-
pointed member Of the Privy
Council lie often represented for
eign governments in shipping cases.
as for example, the Government Of
Japan in it's case against the PENN

ton Company. Arthur Cohen was
not only great international law
yer but a prodigious worker in Is

that "nothing Jewish was alien to
him." and with this is summed up
a life of continued loyalty to the
faith of his fathers.

Hebrew. Selden's book marks the
evolution from pure natural-law
theories of international relations
to more positive or historical ba-
sis. While not denying the exist
ence or validity of a natural law
applicable to nations in their public
relations, Selden lays greater stress
than any of his predecessors on Gus
toms and treaties as the proper
sources of international law.
For the reasons already indicated,
we are unable to mention any in
ternational lawyers of known Jew
ish origin until the middle of the
nineteenth century. After the re-
moval of the test oath in England,
Jews began to distinguish them
selves in high office No name is
better known in the diplomacy OF
the last century than that of Ben
jamin Disraeli, Lord Beaconsfe1d,
who first became Prime Minister in
1868 and again in 1874, and who
controlled the external relations Of
Great Britain most successfully over
period of seven years. His ca
reer was essentially that of the
politician and statesman rather
than Of the lawyer, but his unusual
success in diplomacy has gained for
him in this day, more even than
during his lifetime, recognition
among historians as one Of the great
builders of the British Empire. His
astuteness in acquiring an interest
in the Suez Canal exerted and still
exerts profound influence upon the
international affairs of the Near and
Far East. He established a most TN
usual precedent in ATTENDING in per-
son the Berlin CONGRESS- of 1873. He
was able to render great assistance
to DISTINGUISHED members of his
race Of other countries. such as
Cremieux of France and Lasker of
Germany, in their efforts for the
emancipation of the Jews in the
Balkan States. He wisely remain
ed in the BACKGROUND during the
Congress, preferrino to exert his
influence from behind the scenes.
In this manner Disrae1i was emf
nentlv successful in gaining the SUD-
port of the Powers for the PROPOSALS
introduced towards this end by
Waddinoton, the French delegate.
His Diplomacy is RECOGNIZED as a
continuation and DEVELOPMENT of
