GEORGE, Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, was born in Buckinghamshire, England, March 25, 1862. He received an academy education and was graduated from the law school of the Uni- TACNA-ARICA DISPUTE. A protocol was signed July 15, 1922, providing for arbitration of the unfulfilled clauses of the treaty of 1883 (see p. 42) by the President of the United States: (1) The latter to determine first of all whether the original treaty clause providing for a plebiscite in the disputed provinces should still be carried out under the altered conditions; (2) in case of an affirmative answer being given, the President to prescribe the rules governing the voting; (3) in case he decides against the plebiscite, a new conference between Chile and Peru to be called. Ratifications of the protocol were exchanged in Washington early in 1923.

Sutherland GEORGE Suggestion plays an important part in almost every field of life
Collier's New Encyclopedia (1921)
GEORGE Suggestion plays an important part in almost every field of life, in education, in religion, in art, in law and government, and not least in medicine, where the weakness and submissiveness of the patient on one hand and the confidence felt in the physician on the other are both highly favorable to the ready reception of skillfully introduced suggestions. Hypnotism (q. v.) is simply the extreme case of artificial suggestibility. (See also AUTOSUGGESTION.)
What Has Changed in the Last Century
Collier's in 1921 listed George Sutherland as an associate justice, but he was in fact nominated only in September 1922; on the Court he wrote Adkins v. Children's Hospital (1923) striking down a minimum wage law and United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind (1923) denying naturalization to Indian immigrants, and became one of the "Four Horsemen" who resisted New Deal legislation before retiring in 1938. Howard Sutherland lost his Senate seat in 1922 and served instead as federal Alien Property Custodian. The Scottish county has changed most: it ceased to be an administrative county in 1975, absorbed into the Highland region, so Dornoch is no longer a capital; the coal pit at Brora closed in the 1970s, the herring fishery collapsed, the population has fallen to roughly 13,000, and Gaelic, spoken by "the majority" in 1921, is now a small minority tongue there.
