The District Supreme Court today cwinted a motion of L. Heisler Ball, Senator from Delaware, to set aside a judgment for $5,000 agalnst him rendered last August as the sult of the Citizens’ Bank of Weston be- cause of his indorsement of a note.

Lloyd he tells the court that the note ih ques- tion, with others, was given in furtherance of an agreement between the Penfield Coal and Coke Co. and Samuel A.

By the Assoclated Press. GENEVA, January 16.— Although Soviet Russia 1s not a member of the League of Nations, she smashed all records today by forwarding three notes to the Geneva peace organiza- tion. Forelgn Minister Tchitcherin's first communlication was a flat refusai by Russia to adhere to the compulsory arbitration clause of the Permanent Court of International Justice. All countries had been Invited to adhere to this clause, and France was the first great power that agreed at the last assembly to subscribe to it, with soma reservations. In his second note M. Tchitcherin announced Russla’s refusal to adhere to the convention for simplification of customs formalities, elaborated last year at Geneva in the presence of the American Chambers of Commerce. Accepts One Plan. The third communication from the Russlan forelgn minister was more affirmative In nature. He accepted in principle the invitation to send dele- gates to the specla] League of Na- Magnificent question of unification of tonnage in international navigation. League of- ficlals sald they were not surprised at the refusals contained in the first two notes. They pointed out that when the dispute between Finland and Russia over the frontier of eastern Karella was brought before the World Court M. Tchitcherin re- fused to recognize the jurisdiction of the court, complaining that the league was a capitalistic organiza- tion. Acceptance of the proposition to study the navigation problem is be- lieved to indicate, however, that Russia is ready to contlnue to co- operate with the league in economic and financial technical matters.

A vocal solo was given by Miss Margaret Ashbridge Rabbitt. Says Press Misrepresents Cause. Mrs. Ella A. Boole, national vice president and world treasurer of the W. C. T. U, who was the principal speaker at the morning session, said that prohibition was grossly misin- terpreted abroad, dus to “misrepre- sentation through the press in the United States.” She said that the im- pression by papers In this country would lead ome to think that the elghteenth amendment had been a failure. This is s0, she said, because of the tendency to glve much public- ity to bootlegging and all failures of the working of the law, and not telling s0 much of the accomplishments of the prohibition agents. Telling briefly of proubition pri pects abroad, she spoke enthusi- astically of Ireland. Miss Grace Leigh Scott, national department, spoke on the importance of properly educating children.
