"4. Conferences between the slgna- tory powers shall be heMfrom time to time to formulate and codify rules of International law, which, unless some signatory shall Blgnify Its dissent with in a stated period, shall thereafter gov ern in the decisions of the Judicial tribunal mentioned in Article 1."
