1t is understood that he is still unde-
cided as to which of these two plans he
will follow.
But when the State Department. does
begin work on the treaty it will be up
against one of the most intricate rrob-
lens it has ever had to face, for woven
into the international situation affect
Ing the two countries are two old
treaties, parts of which may be found
to be still effective. One of these was
ratified July II, 1899, and the other
May 1, 1928.
Probably the first question that must
be taken up in connection with these
old treaties is what effect did the con-
federation of German states and the
establishment of the German Empire
have upon them
Under the terms of Article 81. of
the treaty of amity and commerce con-
cluded on July IL, 1899, between the
United States and Prussia the con-
ventlon was to remain in force only

identity with full power of action over
the subject matter of a treaty con-
cluded, the other contracting party
may reasonably insist upon a recogni-
ton by the new or acquiring state of
the continuing obligation of the treaty,
so far as consistent with the new order
of things" The political changes
through which Prussia went did not
alter the status of the treaty Of 1928
This fact was clearly shown at the
beginning of the war of 1870, when the
United States government assumed
that its Obligations as neutral under
the treaty of 1928 were binding upon
it in relation to the North German
Confederation just as they would have
been had Prussia alone been involved
in the war. And On several other occa-
sions the attitude of the government
with reference to the continued validity
of the treaty of 1928 was clearly de-
fined.
