2 In 1932 the Manchukuan Government set up the Manchukuo Commission for the Liquidation of Claims. By the end of 1933 the commission had completed payments through the Bank of Manchuria to the following nations, none of which at that time had recognized the Government of Manchukuo: Great Britain, United States, Germany, France, Sweden, Holland and Denmark. Foreign consuls are said to have dealt with the commission. Sharp, R. H. Non-Recognition as a Legal Obligation Liége 1934 162 Google Scholar.

1 “The life of the law has not been logic: it has been experience” (The Common Law 1881, p. 1). Holmes used the words “experience” and “history” almost interchangeably, the former a little more broadly. Experience is recorded not only in “history” but also in “existing theories of legislation” (ibid).

2 Thus Pound writes: “The life of the law is reason tested by long experience and experience developed by reason.” (Fashions in Juristic Thinking, p. 20.)
