Excerpt from Proceedings, 1920, Vol. 1 The idea of holding, under the auspices of the Bhandar-kar Oriental Research Institute, a Conference of Orientalists in India, Burma and Ceylon, - an idea which had been in the minds of the promoters of the Institute since its very foundation-, took material shape in the following resolution of the Executive Board of the Institute, passed on the 12th of December 1918.

The Secretary, accordingly, about the middle of January 1919, addressed the following letter to about twenty-five prominent Orientalists in India: - ''Dear Sir, The Executive Board of the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute thinks it desirable to hold an All-India Conference of Orientalists at Poona, if possible in the month of May 1919. This would be the first Conference of its kind in India, and it will be repeated periodically at different centres. The necessity and utility of such a Conference need not he emphasised.

Excerpt from Papers and Proceedings, 1920 What, during the period of reconstruction which lies before us, are the chief duties of those American institutions which minister to the needs and interests of scholarship, of the higher learning, of research and original investigation? Ivell, some of us believe that the following are predominant: First, more abundant provision of the materials of research; greater activity in the production of bibliographical and other aids to research; third, a better understanding, even in our own ranks, of the true aims and methods of research. Our attitude toward the general problem, however, must be Largely influenced by the condition in which the mechanism and personnel of European learning finds itself to-day, for prior to the war we leaned heavily on Europe in everything that touched the matter of research. In fact, our present problem may be said to pivot entirely upon the European situation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Journal of Conational Law, Vol. 1: America's Journal of International Private Law; July, 1920 Facing this development, the latter branch of law stands saddled with a name or names both antiquated and wholly inappropriate. They either raise a conception entirely ad verse to the real effect Of the legal rules supposed to be explained by these names or made an entirely independent branch of law an appendage of a body of rules, whose very status in the legal systems is a matter of grave dispute and whose very existence is threatened by the course of political events to which we have alluded above. It would be well, before proceeding to offer any new suggestions, to briefly review the main names suggested and used for the international private law. Let us commence with the term well known to anglo-american jurists - The Conflict of Laws. The objections to it are well summed up by A. V. Dicey A Digest of the Law of England with refer ence to the conflict of laws 1908 p. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
