LATIN AMERICA
League of the Americas
A League of the Americas (not unlike the League of Nations), the outlawing of wars of conquest, enforcement of peaceful solutions of all disputes, a “Pan-American Court of Justice,” extension of the Monroe Doctrine, freedom of transit, regulation of immigration, rules for treaty-making−such were the proposals made, last week, to Pan-America in 30 conventions for the codification of American international law.
They were drafted by a committee of the American Institute of International Law.
They were published by the Pan-American Union at Washington.
They were sent to all governments concerned.
They will be acted on by the International Commission of Jurists, meeting at Rio de Janeiro, a few months hence.
