NATIONS LEAGUE
WORLD COURT
John Bassett Moore and Viscount
FinIay Are Among the Eleven
Judges Chosen.
THREE OF LATIN AMERICA
British Dominion Delegations Dis
appointed at Not Getting One Place
ON TribunaI-court to Sit at
The Hague.

| Geneva.-The League of Nations has
elected the members of the permanent
Court Of International Justice and thus
brought into being a world court to
which Twenty-Five countries have
| subscribed. A citizen of the United
States, John Bassett Moore, was
named for the bench, although the
Washington Government has never
answered the invitation to ratify the
world court project sent to 1t at the
conclusion of last years assembly.
The court will be open to all the ma
lions of the earth.
The following eleven jurists were
chosen as full members of the Court:
Viscount Robert Bannatyne Finldy,
of Great Britain.
Charles Andre Weiss, of France.
Dionisio Anzilotti of Italy.
John Bassett Moore, of the United
States.
Rafael Altamira y Cravea, of Spain.
Senator Ruy Barbosa, of Brazil.
Antonio de Bustamente, of Cuba.
Max Huber, of Switzerland.
Il. c. ]. LOder, of Holland
Didrik Galtrup Gjedde Nyholm, Of
Denmark.
YOruze 0da, of Japan.
The members of the court, should
they all accept, will be asked to meet
at an early date and choose a Presi.
dent. 1t is hoped that the court can
be got going by the first of the year
at it's seat, which will be The Hague,
where it will occupy part of the Peace
Palace, built through the generosity of
Andrew Carnegie.
1t Is interesting to note that virtu-
ally all available codes of law are
represented in the Membership Court,
and this Is considered especially for
tuna.e as one of the great services
Of the body is expected to be the es-
tablishment of international law in
manner to make it possible to cOdify
it.
The fixed annual SALARY Of the
judges will be $4,000 Approximately |
$4,000 forms fixed stipend with adj
ditiOnal allowances for the time actu- |
ally devoted to active work of the |
court. The President, who must live |
at The Hague,, will receive 10000 |
forms annually
1t will be gathered from the list Of |
Judges that their choice represents an
effort made by the Court to represent |
as many countries and as many legal |
traditions as possible. There is some
discomfort among the delegates of the |
British Dominions who hoped for
place, but in general the list gives sat
isfaction in spite of certain reserve
on the part of some of the delegations,
who consider three Spanish and Latin
American members-Spain, Brazil and
Cuba-as a somewhat heavy represen-
tation. However, the Spanish and
ortuguese-speaking nations, who have
sixteen members in the League, think
they might welh have had an addi-
tiOnal Judge.
These remarks show that the cleo
ton of the Judges was on a political
basis, and so 1t had to be- The result
of today's poll followed a good deal of
