Events occurring during its nineteenth year created grave problems for the Permanent Court of International Justice, and the Court survived the year with uncertain prospects for the future.
The Court held a series of meetings at The Hague from February 19 to February 26, and an order in the case of the Electricity Company of Sofia and Bulgaria between Belgium and Bulgaria was handed down on February 26, 1940.
This is the nineteenth in the writer's series of annual articles on the organization and work of the Permanent Court of International Justice, the publication of which was begun in this Journal , Vol. 17 (1923), p. 15.
