By the Associated Press. GENEVA, Switzerland, September 8.—Discussion of the fifth American reservation to adherence to the World Court of Justice occupied the two secret sessfons yesterday of the committee of 14, to which have been referred by the World Court con- terence all the reservations for jurid- ical examination. The fifth reservation prohibits the ecourt from entertaining without American consent a request for ad- visory opinlons on questions in which the United States has or claims an interest. Equal Treatment for U. S. The committee decided ih principle to accord to the United States treat- ment equal to that to which non- members of the League of Nations are entitled, and also the treatment enjoved by the members of the League or\members of the council, but will éxamine further as to whether this is all that the United States wants by this reservation, This means that the committee would gran, the United States the same rights as members of the coun- cil in passing upon the advisability of asking the court for opinions. Discussion showed that great difficulties exist not only in accepting the American reservations, but in making this acceptance legal- ly binding in practice. The com- mittee is striving to declde whether the situation can best bhe met by adding a new statute to the court or by amending article 14 of the covenant. Acceptance of the American reser- vations in itself is not sufficient, be- cause courts of law must be framed so that the court itself will have no doubt as to the legal effectiveness of the reservations. The court will probably ask the United States to collaborate in pre- paring the new statute dealing with this question, because the statutes of the court are binding, whereas regu- lations could be amended by the court without consulting the signatorfes. The special statute undoubtedly will also name directly the United States as the country to be accorded special treatment as a non-member of the League. Armament Question Raised. The American delegation to the preparatory disarmament committee obtained satisfaction when the naval subcommittee decided unanimously that any system for the limitation of naval armaments by the method of total tonnage should prescribe the maximum tonnage of warships and the maximum caliber of guns Admiral Hilary Jones, presenting the view of the United States, com- batted the French proposals, which vored limitation by total tonnage and declared that the application of this would not abolish competition in naval armaments nor lessen interna- tional suspicion and misgivings. tor, may be called upon by the pro- gressives to seek to turn defeat into vietory in the general election in | November.

Charles B.

Perry was running | third—but a poor third—and Smith, the wet candidate, was trailing far behind. Zimmerman's success is attributed largely to his personal popularity in the State and his abilities as a cam paigner. He had the support, it is| said, of the Ku Klux Klan and the | indorsement of some of the dry or ganizations. He also drew heavily | from the (ierman-American voters be- | cause of his name and, strange as it | may seem. had some wet support. The victory of Gov.

Early returns on four other State offices, lieutenant governor, secretary of State, treasurer and attorney gen- eral, showed the members of the La holding the lead by a wide margin. The candi- | dates who appear in the lead over the | anti-Blaine Progressive candidates and the Conservative ticket are Lieut. Gov. Henry H. Huber, State Treasurer Reynolds, and the candidate for attorney general, Theodore Dammann, aspirant office of secretary of State. Beck Running Behind. All Progressive-Republican Repre- senatives with the exception of Rep resentative J. D. Beck of the seventh district forged ahead in their fight for nomination. Merlin Hull, former secretary of State and a Progressive, led Representative Beck by 700 votes. The other Progressive-Republican members of the Wisconsin delegation in the lower house fighting for the nomination against opposition—Repre- senative Florian Lampert, 1. E Brown, J. J. Schneider and H. P. Peavey—were running ahead. C. R. Kading, Watertown, indorsed by the La_ Follette Progressives, has assumed the lead in the second dis- trict after a late start. Congressman Edward Voigt's retirement brought five Republican candidates into the fleld. Mr. Perry, running third in the race for governor, announced his in- tention of standing independently in the November general election. Perry independent candidacy presaged earlier in the p Nominee of the State Republican convention, he charged a compact between some of the forces of Senmator Lenroot and Zim- man. This was denied. Lenroot Made Good Fight. Senator Lenroot conducted a vig- orous campaign. He has served in Congress for 17 years, first in the House, and then in the Senate, since 1918 as the successor to Paul Husting. Standing on his record, which included leading the adminis- tration fight for American adher- ence to the World Court, and support- ing the Volstead act, the senfor Wis consin Senator rallled his supporte many of whom at the outset be lieved he was beaten. Lenroot met the modification sentiment with the assertion he would be guided by the expression of the people in the pro- posed beer referendum. If Senator Lenroot has been de- feated, Wisconsin has removed from office the last supporter of the Cool- idge administration in the State con- gressional delegation. Gov. Blaine has denounced many of the admin- istration’s policies, and is pledged to seek reconsideration of the favorable action on entrance into the World Court, which he declared was the principal issue. Blaine sought the office with the support of practically the entire La Follette progressive forces. Len- root played a lone hand. The con- servative Republican convention, which placed a complete State ticket in the fleld, did not indorse him and he conducted an independent cam- paign.

Blaine did not poll the full Progressive strength. He has antago- | nized members of his own faction dur- ing his incumbency as governor. This led stalwarts to hope that Senator Lenroot might pull through, after all. Blaine, however, had the support of the wets in large part. Out of the smoke of battle arises the potency of the La Follette name in Wisconsin. Gov. Blaine ran not as a Progressive but as a La Follette Progressive. Senator La Follette, jr., campalgned the State for him vigor- ously. Zimmerman, who was nomi- nated, carried on all his posters and literature a statement that he, too. was a La Follette Progressive and an indorsement which he said the Jate Senator La Follette had given him | tWo years ago. | Democratic candidates for Senator | and governor were nominated without opposition.
