Many Reservai s Proposed. \ larze number of reservations have presented, including those by tor Borah of ldaho, Senator Ship. stead of Minnesota, Senator Reed of Missouri, Senator Moses of N Hampshire, Senator Frazier of North Dakota, Senator Williams of Missouri tor Blease of South Carolina. Senator Moses has ulso offered, as a substitute for the Swanson resolution of ratification, the old Pepper resolu- tion. which was reported from the committes on foreign relations in the spring of 1924, which proposes to di- vores absolutely the World Court and the League of Nations. Senator Moses’ reservation, offered yesterday, provides: “That the adherence of the United States is conditioned upon the under- standing and agreenent that the Jjudgments, decrees and advisory opin- ions of the court shall not be enforced by war under any name or in any form whatever."” Benator Moses declared that he had felt from the beginning that the World Court structure was such as to give judicial approval of war under many circumstances. Senator Borah has a reservation States shall be conditioned upon the understanding that in the election of Judges in each electoral body each sig- natory state shall have one vote, but not more than one vote shall be cast in either assembly or the council by the British Empire and the states in- cluded therein. A reservation proposed by Senator Blease would give a vote to each one of the 48 States of the United States since the colonies of the British Em- pire are allowed a vote each. PRESIDENT IS PLEASED. Action of Senate to Date on World Court Wins Approval. Adoption of the cloture ruls by the Senate as & means of cutting off de- bate with a view to bringing the World Court resolution to an early vote {8 not disapproved by President Coolidge. As a matter of fact a spokesman for him said at the White House today that the manner in which the Senate has proceeded thus far regarding this subject meets with his approval. The President is represented as being of the opinion that it is not for him to dictate the movements of the Senate nor the courses it should follow regarding legislation. It is his contention that the matter of obtain- ing a vote on the World Court resolu- tion lies with Senator Curtis of Kansas, Republican leader of that body, and the manner in which the latter brings this about is for him to determine and not the President. As to the reservations that will be included when the protocol is finally adopted, the President is represented as feeling that this is a matter to be determined by Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin, who 1s handling this fight for the administration, and Senators Pepper of Pennsylvania, Walsh of Montana and Swanson of Virginia, the last two being Democrats. While the President made it very plain to those with whom he discus- sed the matter today that he has re- frained from dictating to the Senate body, he has conferred with the leaders of that body. They have kept him posted as to the daily- progress and it is not unnatural that his opinfons have been sought during the various stages of the World Court resolution up to date. A Matrimonial Help.
