The discussions upon questions of international law before the class of 1923 at the Naval War College, Newport, R. I., were, as in recent years, conducted by George Grafton Wilson, LL. D., professor of international law at Harvard University.

The problems submitted to the class and their subsequent discussions required the interpretation of certain treaties about which there is a difference of opinion and involved points of law upon which there have been as yet no judicial decisions. For this reason it is considered inexpedient to publish this matter at the present time.

The 1923 volume of International Law Documents is a compilation, made by Professor Wilson, of decisions of various prize courts that are considered to be of special interest and value to officers of the naval service. The subject matter has been considered at the war college; but, as is evident from the text, the contents consist of recent tribunal decisions only and are therefore not directly representative of the work of the war college.
