Into League, Says Borah Senator Flays International Step as Par- tial and Defines Duties He Declares Would Involve By the Associated Press ST. LOUIS, Mo., May 19.—The pro- posal of President Harding for the United States to become a member of the Court of International Justice was condemned as a scheme to coax this country into the league of na- tions, by United States Senator Wil- liam E. Borah of Idaho in an address {at a meeting under the auspices of a committes of business and pro- fessional men here last night. Senator Borah insisted that the world court is an integral part of the league of nations, that the league is its foundation and that the proposal for the United States to enter it is for no other reason than to get the coun- try into the league to bear the league's financial burdens. Opposes Partial Entry. “] cannot understand the argument of those who say, that we should go into a part of the league of nations and stay out of the rest of it,” he as- serted. Predictions that President Harding would be renominated by acclamation by the republican national con- vention, “but upon an air-tight platform,” was made by the senator in an interview. He Intl- timated that the International Court proposal would be an issue in frame ing the republican platform for the 1924 presidential election. “If anybody thinks that he can win in 1924 by uprooting a system of foreign policies as old as the govern- ment_itself, let him get upon a politi cal platform and try to carry the elec- tion,” Senator Borah continued Denounces Ruhr Invasion. Digressing from his prepared ad- dress, the senator denounced the French invasion of the Ruhr valley as “sowing the seeds of another world war,” declared the invasion was in- tended. not to collect reparations, but to dismember Germany, and pictured Premier Poincare of France as menace to the peace of the world. He also demanded the release of polit- fcal prisoners in the United States and criticized the League to Enforce Peace as ellish doctrine.” He con- cluded with & plea for h-ymrtnydtodr e KLAN THREATENED HIM, SAYS TEACHER Hyattsville Music Teacher Asks Washington Police for Protection. Prof. Richard Paul Otelle, & music teacher of Hyattsville, Md., applied to the Washington police today fol protection against members of Klan No. 2, Realm of Maryland. K. K. K., which he named as having sent him a letter telling him to get out of Hyattsville and advising that “the greater the distance he put between himself and Hyatteville the better it would be for all concerned.” Otelle was referred to the Prisoners’ Re- lef Assoclation, where he received sympathetic advice and directed. to visit an inspector of the Post Office Department, who told him to put it in writing so he could take the matter up officially. Otelle sald that the klan accused him, wrongfully, of being unduly familiar with another man's wife. He gives music lessons in this man’ home. He said that he had merely sent the woman in question a letter, comforting her after she had written to him complaining about her hu: band. Otelle said five men in an au- tomobile called on him and thre ened him and tried to arrest m without a warrant, declaring they were from “an organization. Following _this he recelved & threatening letter bearing a letter head of the Ku Klux an. _Prot. Otelle spent most of the day in Wash- ington. This Country. are struggling under .the three centuries of despotism. Outlining the duties the World Court would have to perform as the ad- viser of the league of nations, Senator Borah said: “Let us suppose we be- come a member of this court. We sit at Geneva day after day and year er vear, not merely passing as ar- bitrators upon some controversy which may arise between countries, but we | sit there advising, counciling and di- recting the league Iitself, not with reference to ite own powers, but iupon all vital European questions which may come before the league and upon which it sees fit to ask the advice of the judges concerned. How could we be more thoroughly, both legally and morally bound up with the league of nations, its activitles and responsibilities, than to become the counselor and adviser of league?” Intolerable Position. After emphasizing that the same close relations as existed between the Department of Justice of the United States government and its entire ad- ministration also existed between the World Court and the league of na- tions, Mr. Borah asserted, “The atti- tude in which we are being placed toward the league in being its Ad- visor and counsellor and yet profes- sing being against the league, puts us in an intolerable position. all due respect to those who hold a different opinion, it seems to me to be a wholly immoral position. And it is a position which, #ay, the American people will never assume.” s “You can see yoke of once that the po- sition is an impossible one,” Senator Forah continued. “You cannot serve {od and mammon: you cannot serve £ood and evil at the same time. You cannot_be opposed to the league be- cause it is dangerous and in favor of the court because it is good, for the reason that the court cannot exist without the league.” Reviewing recent developments in Europe, Senator Borah asserted that events had shown that the league of natiops had not put a stop to wars. The fmen who brought on the great world war, he said, “had produced more than twenty wars since the league was organized.” TWO HURT AS CAR TURTLES IN CRASH ‘Two persons were injured today in a collision of automobiles at Mary- land avenue and 11th street south- east. One of the cars overturned and the other Janded on the side- walk. Carl C.

By the Associated Press. LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 19.—An im- posing array of three-year-old thoroughbreds was ready to start late this afternoon, at Churchill {Downs, in the forty-ninth renewal of ithe historic Kentucky derby. A score and four overnight entries, idivided between the east and west, wers carded to face the barrier pre- liminary to the trying test of speed and spirit over the mile and a quar- ter distance for a total gross money value prize of $65,625, as it stood be- fore the starter's bugle sounded. In {additlon, @ gold plate, valued at $5.000, goes to the winning owner. Each witharawal subtracts $600 from the prize. The hope of the east rides on En- chantment, one of five elegibles in the | from the Herry Payne Whitney and Greentree stables are coupled. The west is relying upon Frederick Johnson's Nassau. annnu In Untried. Enchantment's claim to fame rests on his showing as winner of the $25,000 Kentucky Jockey Club stake last year. Nassau is yet untried un- der an impost of 126 pounds and at the derby distance. Gen. Thatcher, jsecond in the Preakness, had a con- siderable following. The Whitney entry held fast to its commanding place in popular favor. Besides Enchantment. it included Rialto, third in the Preakness, Pic- keter, second in the Jockey Club stakes; Chickvale, conquerer of Ex- {terminator. and Cherry Pie. Notwithstanding the claims of the east and of the west, turfmen were inclined to consider the race the most open of any in recent years. The record-breaking number of entries was cited by these observers in sup- port of their contention that it was futile to attempt a positive selection of the winner, especinlly when no one of the contenders had established an outstanding record The horse first away from the bar- rier and most skillfully ridden has an edge on the chance for victory, it was asserted in this quarter, and a rumber of observers were outspoken in the bellef that an outsider in the betting very likely would be brought but with the weather forecast for pocsible showers it was regarded as not improbable that the condition of the course might change sharply |before post time, which tfentativel ihas been fixed for about 4:30 o'cloc] Central standard time. The vanguard of the Derby host was waiting at the Downs when the gates were opened at § o'clock. Long before the first race on the day's program was run, the stands had been filled and thée crowd. which it previously had been estimated would exceed 75,000, had surged into the 1108 e betting shea scores of pari- | mutuel betting machines clattered as operators recorded purchases of tick- ets from a maximum of $100 to a minimum of $2, marking the placing of what was predicted would be a record-breuking total wager on the Gerby. It was a crowd marked by color, {1ife and movement, vibrant with the !almofiphfire of the great throngs Which have followed with straining eves the flash of the riders’ silks and cheered former derby winners.

Honor Paid to the Designer of Lin- coln Memorial. Henry Bacon, architect of the Lin- | coln Memorial, was presented by ! Tresident Harding with the gold medal of the American Institute of | Architects at picturesque ceremories beld at the national shrine last night Taking on the form of a medieval rageant, the ceremonies presented a colorful spectacle, which vied with anything Washington had the beautiful reflecting hosin of the Memorial playing a prominent part in the pageant. President Harding paid high tribute to Mr. Bacon in the course of his address of presentation, which was held on the steps of the shrine, after a procession in which the archbitect of the structure had been escorted on a barge of honor from the east end of the lagoon. The Fresident Jauded the spirit and ideals of Lin- coln and said that Mr. Bacon hwd yresented them in a building “hod ing forth the substan:e of cuno: ing thought.” Members of Inatitute Present. | Members of the institute, incliding architects, builders and men.bers of the skilled trades, clad in beautifully colored costumes, and bearini bright Lanners, formed on either side of the reflecting pool, which was lit by flar- ing torches. Mrs. Harding, wife of the President, | was an interested spectator of the ! pageant and ceremony, viewing the spectacle from the White House auto- mobile. Mr. Bacon, accompanied by Wil- liam' B. Faville of San Francisco, | president of the American Institute of Architects, which, with last night's pageant, closed its fifty-sixth annual convention here, embarked on the little barge of honor at 9 o'clock, following a dinner which had been held, beginning, at 6:30 o'clock ,in the race to the east of the pool. Slowly wafted along the pool, the barge came to rest at the west end, in | front of the approaches and steps of the memorial. There had been some rain, but the rain could in no sense dampen the pageant, the center of which was the ideal beauty of the great memorial, its white loveliness standing out of the black night like the spirit of the great Lincoln out of the darkness of civil strife. Greeted by Chief Justice Taf: When Mr. Bacon disembarked, he was greeted by Chief Justice William Howard Taft of the' United States Su- preme Court, who escorted him to President Harding. There, surround- ed by hundreds of invited guests, the President presented Mr. Bacon with the rare medal of the American Insti- tute of Architects. It was a fitting tribute to the man whose technical skill enabled him to bring_forth such a pure specimen of architecture, and those who took part in the spectacle, as unusual as it was beautiful, seemed to sense this as well as the guest of honor. The time of night, the drizzling rain, the color of the pageantry, with the setting and the entire spirit of the occasion, com- | bined to make an event unique. Soft, vari-colored lights playing upon the Memorial, added to the beauty. President Praixes Lincoln. Praising the character of Lincoln and the memorial as a fitting tribute, President Harding said: “This occasion not only envisages the career of Lincoln. but the prog- ress of the nation which, by his pa- {triotism and devotion, was saved to| play its full part in the affairs of our rid and our civilization. “It is not for me to speak know- {ingly of art or of architecture, but 1 am very sure I do not gravely err when I assume that no man could | have seen in his mind's eye the vision of this supremely appealing strue- ture, or could have conceived it as the most appropriate memorial to the life and work of Lincoln, unless he was so fortunate as to sense ;xeniuu, the character, the simple aims and unquestioning ntegrity which were the dominant traits of the emancipator. 1t is part, and a great Architect HENRY BACON. of our people has no doubt bheen de termined in large part by that ide ism which cynics are wont to call sentimental, but which is so vital a factor in the national character Achlevements Memorialized. “We may readily enough convince ourselves that Lincoln, the Lincoin of flesh and blood and human emo- tions, if he could view this memorial would find his chiefest satisfaction, not in the recognition which it bhe- speuks for him. his life and his labors, but in the thought that the nation he loved and served, has vindicated his aspirations for it. by bringing forth such a proof of lofty aim and of capacity for achievement. For that, after ail, {s the thing which is me- morialized in this nobility of design, this purity of detail, this perfection of execution. “Lincoln occupies a place secure among the moral forces of the ages He occupies it because he was at once instilled with recognition of eternal truths, and able to enlist us of com- moner clay fn behalf of his highest purposes. His was the genlus of the architect, the talent of the draftsman, the industry and resourcefulness of the builder. His was the faith and confidence of all of them combined From cvery viewpoint he is typified in this triumph of the constructive arts Tribute to the Architect. “So, in presenting this testamenta: model to you, Mr. Bacon, we woul testify aleo our appreciation and pride in the contributions of those who have been your coadjutors in bringing forth the substance of en- nobling thought, the glory of beau- teous conception. Out of the crudest materfals, you and those who have wrought with you and after you have given us this creation whose simple grandeur has arrested the eyes and thoughts of whoever loves the beau- tiful and appealing. You have reared here a structure whose dignity and character have won it rank among the architectural jewels of all time You have brought to youl countrymen a swelling pride in the thought that they have been capable of producing such an inspiring theme and such a masterful execution. ‘Here are typified which made Lincoln dreamer and the doer, and the builder. the qualities at once the the designer That so much of sturdy greatness and of modest beauty have here been brought to- Zether i3 proof that the high inspira- tion of his life had touched all whose labors contributed to this consumma- tion. Surely. as we survey it, we may hope that, in building the in- stitutions of the nation which Lincoln saved, there may be a like fidelity to the ideals which guided him. Each and every one of those which werea planned and builded have helped to carve an admonition to such fidelity, such devotion, such faith, as that which showed the way to the great emancipator. “And to you. the further persona! tribute of “reverent admiration_for the pure genius of conception. It fs a simple task to absorb or approve or to modify and apply that which is already created to the fulfiliment of our aims and purnoses. But it is fine genius which conceives anew and fashions our sentiments and aspira tions into eloquent expression and makes a new contribution to the riches of humankind. Such has been your triumph. and for it you and your work a: honored in all the varied expressions of this befitting thel testimonial.” Briefly, but_evidently with hear felt emotion, Mr. Bacon responded | the President. thanking him for tie honor conferred upon him. part, of the debt which as a nation his service and devotion, genfus in conception, for realization, as are here attested.!
