vom Verbot der entschädigungslosen Enteignung die schon er-
wähnte Entscheidung des Ständigen Internationalen Gerichtshofs
in Sachen "Gewisse deutsche Interessen in polnisch Oberschlesien‘
zu nennen.
In dieser Äntscheidung heißt es:
"Purther there san be no doubt that the e:. ropriation
3llowed under Head III of the Convention is & derogation
from the rules generally applisi in regard to the treat-
sent of foreigners and the principle of respect for
sested rights. As this derogahi9o? “4s21lf is stristly in
Ihe nature of an exception, i* is vermissible to conclude
“hat no further derogation is allowed.
The action of Poland which the Court has judged to be
zontrary to the Geneva Convention is not #ı expropriatior
- to render which lawful only the payment of fair
sompensation would have been wanting; it is a seizure of
property, rights and interests which could not be
expropriated even against compensation, save under the
exceptional conditions fixed by Article 7 of the said
Convention".

Über die Stellung der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika zu der Frage
ler entschädigungslosen Enteignung von Ausländern ist die Note
son Staatssekretär Hall an den mexikanischen Botschafter in
Yashington vom 21. Juli 1938 bezeichnend. Darin heißt es:
The taking of property without ecompensation is not
sxpropriation. It is confiscation. It is no less
»onfiscation because there may be an expressed intent
bo pay at some time in the future....."
‚.... The right of prompt and just compensation for
expropriated property is a part of this structure. It
is a principle to which the Government of the United
States and most governments of the world have
emphatically subseribed and which they have practiced
and which must be maintained.”"
