The Treaty-Making Power Under the Constitution of the United States (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Treaty-Making Power Under the Constitution of the United StatesThe recent action of the State of California in passing an act prohibiting Aliens ineligible to citizenship in the United States from holding land in that State has produced wide discussion, and brings us face to face with the question whether a Treaty between the United States and any foreign country Which guarantees to the inhabitants of such country the right to hold land within the bounds of the United States is a Constitutional Treaty and valid, as against the law of a State of the Union prohibiting such holding by such foreign ers. No question of more far-reaching effect than this has arisen in our political history within the past few years.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
