Council. It numbers among its editors Dr. Felix Meyer, editor of the well-
known Blaetter juer Vergleichende Rechtswissenschajt, and author of notable
volumes on the law of checks and bills of exchange; Dr. Franz Scholz, one
of the German judges on the mixed arbitral tribunals under the Trea.ty of
Versailles; Dr. Ferdinand Schweighoffer, Privy Councillor; Dr. C. H.
Huberich, formerly of Stanford University and now practising in Europe;

articles on comparative law and reports on recent legislation in several
European countries. Its discussion of the decisions of the Mixed Arbitral
Tribunals, which promises to be one of the regular features, should make the
magazine of special interest to students of international law.
THE "REVUE DE DROIT INTERNATIONAL"

The science of international law has recently been enriched and its means
of exposition enlarged by the founding of a new journal a t Geneva, Switzer-
land, entitled Revue de Droit International, de ,Sciences Diplomatiques, Poli-

of the University of Geneva, who is also its Editor-in-Chief. The new
Revue is published quarterly, and two issues for the year 1923 and one issue
for the year 1924 have made their appearance. The language is French, but
i t appears that other languages may be employed, there being a n article in
the second and third. numbers in Spanish. The subscription price is 35
francs in Switzerland and 40 francs in the countries of the Universal Postal
Union.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL LAWjoins with Professor Fauchille,
the Director of the Revue G6nBrale de Droit International Public, in wishing
in his preface to the first number of the Revue de Droit International, "to
our young sister, long life and prosperity."
