LONDON. Oct. 19. The British
League of Nations Society has just is-
sued a definite scheme for the forma-
tion of a World League.
It pro loses, first, an international
conference, at which the nation mem
bers will be represented roughly on
scale of population.
Nations with twenty millions or less
one member.
Nations with twenty to fifty millions
three members.
Nations with fiftv to one hundred
millions five members.
Nations with over one hundred mil
lions seven members.
This international conference would
meet every three years and would
elect (1) a Supreme Court of Nations
and (2) an Administrative Committee.
The Supreme Court would be com
posed of fifteen judges and would be
essentially judicial to "discover and
develop" international justice; to pro
nounce judgment in all "justiciable."
cases, deciding itself what cases are
'"justiciable" and what are not.
Non-justiciable cases are left to still
another body the Council of Concilia
tion, in which each nation member
would have one representative. Its job
would be to investigate all non-justiciable
cases; propose means of con
ciliation and publish an official report
on every such case within a year after
it has been submitted.
The administrative committee would
be, in effect, the executive of the league,
collecting information, calling meet
ings of the conference, and consulting

as to any unnecessary joint action to
enforce the decisions of the supreme
ci urt.
The league would have a fixed seat ;
but the council of conciliation would
sit elsewhere for the consideration of
any given case.
Judges of the supreme Court and
members of the court of conciliation
would be selected for nine-year
terms; they would be salaried and
pensioned out of an endowment fund
contributed to by all nation-members
and managed by the administration
committee.
A judge would be removable only on
the recommendation of his fellow
judges. It would be the business of the in
ternational conference, the original
body chosen roughly on population, to
formulate and codify international law;
it will be noticed that this body was
set down for a meeting every three
years; but it is taken that this means
the conference must meet every three
years, and may meet as often as neces
sary; nothing is said either about the
length of sessii n.
