Professor Gamer refers to a suggestion of Sir John Fischer Williams “ that a distinction should be recognized between the rights of neutrals in what he denominates ‘ public’ wars, that is, wars carried on by or under the authority of a collective group of States, for example, the League of Nations, against an aggressor, or for the protection of international covenants, and their rights during the existence of ‘private’ wars, that is, wars begun and waged by individual States on their own account and for the advancement of purely national interests.”
