This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ...it is so only until the conflicting treaty shall be put into effect; but at second thought, it is evident that once the treaty were brought into effect, within the meaning of the Court, the statute involved in the case would no longer apply. But, at any rate, the constitutional issue is plainly avoided by the interpretation given to the treaty involved. That such interpretation, however, met the real intention of the treaty, I think more than doubtful. The provisions of it drawn into question were almost certainly designed to go into effect at once. While, therefore, this case cannot be cited as confirming in law McLean's decision in Lowry v. Weaver, yet the doctrine embodied in that decision was plainly material in shaping the decision in this case as well. (5) The last group of dicta to be noted occurs in connection with the issue which marks the original battleground between the claims of State power and treaty-power, an issue, moreover, that initially was deemed to involve the whole constitutional question: I refer to the question of the right of the treatypower to alter State laws on the subject of the rights of aliens in connection with the inheritance and disposition of property. In Prevost v. Greneaux35 plaintiff was disputing the right of the State of Louisiana, under the Treaty of 1853 virith France, to impose a succession tax upon property inherited anterior to the Treaty. Said the Court: "If the property vested in him at the time, it could vest only in the manner, upon the conditions authorized by the laws of the State. And certainly a treaty, subsequently i.e. to the vesting of the property) made by the United States with France could not devest rights of property already vested in the State, even if the words of the treaty had...

Seller's Description:
Fine. Not Issued with a Dust Jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. This book was first published by Henry Holt in 1913, and this book is a reprint of that edition, 321 pages. "The main purpose of this study is to investigate the relation of the national treaty-power to State power. In the view of the framers of the Constitution, State power could not limit the National Government in the exercise of its granted powers. Of this view Article VI, paragraph 2 of the Constitution, is the authoritative statement. This paragraph at once recognizes the "reserved powers" of the States and provides that when any exercise of those powers comes into collision with a constitutional exercise of its powers by the National Government, the former must yield."
