puteS William Cullen Dennis, lega!
advisor to Gen. LaSSiter, American
arbitrator in the Tacna- africa bound
airy dispute. in an address at the weekly
luncheon of the Harvard Club yester-
day declared that practice TO date in
this regard has tended to increase
sources of friction and stressed benevo-
lent compromise rather than judicial
process
There is no reason. in the opinion
of Mr.. Dennis. why such procedure
should not be made as settled as that
prevailing in domestic courts. He also
called attention to the fact that the
personnel Of international tribunals
has not in general been as high as
that of internal courts
Aside fNm questions of policy in the
United States entering the Permanent
Court of International Justice, that
court. he said. has the obvious adj
vantage of continuity of membership
and a relatively definite procedure.
Such court. he suggested. might we'll
be utilized III an appellate court to
