The first Conference for the Codification of International Law called by the League of Nations to codify the subjects of nationality, territorial waters and responsibility of states for injuries to aliens adjourned at The Hague on April 12 after a four weeks' session. After five years of preparatory work, with voluminous documentation, by committees of experts of the League in cooperation with the governments represented, these three subjects were selected as presumably ripe for codification. Some forty-seven states were represented at The Hague, including members and non-members of the League.
