Immediately after the announcement of Dean Pound's decision to remain at the University comes the news of his election as foreign fellow of the Academy of Moral and Political Science of the Royal Society of Naples.
This is the greatest honor which Italy has to offer to prominent jurists in foreign countries. At present there are only six foreign fellows of the academy, and the place now awarded to Dean Pound was formerly occupied by Otto Geirke, the internationally prominent German jurist, whose death was announced recently.
Dean Pound is one of the very few Americans ever elected to this honor, which is generally considered to be a recognition of international importance toward prominent jurists throughout the world.
