Note 465 — ARTICLE III (continued 2)

Virginia v. West Virginia, 220 U.S. 1 (1911). This case is also significant for Justice Holmes' statement that, "The case is to be considered in the untechnical spirit proper for dealing with a quasi-international controversy, remembering that there is no municipal code governing the matter, and that this Court may be called on to adjust differences that cannot be dealt with by Congress or disposed of by the legislature of either State alone." Ibid. 27.
