NASA General Counsel Paul G. Dembling told Rutgers Univ. au­dience: ". . . we are moving toward the end that the rule of law will pre­vail in space." He explained space law treaty, which entered into force Oct. 10, 1967, and praised effectiveness of U.N. "as a vehicle for the de­velopment of international law." Significance of space law and space rescue treaties was that they "indicate that international law can develop . . . even among nations having widely divergent ideologies and na­tional interests . . . [and] can evolve by gradually codifying the ground rules which are considered by States to be in their common in­terests." (Text)
