The committee action brings the world court technically before the senate for the first time but there ia little hope in any quarter of a vote daring the present session. Before taking up the plan eventu. ally reported, the committee voted down, 10 to §, the proposal prepared by Senator Swanson, democrat, Vire ginia, which compromised substane tially the proposal transmitted to con- gress by Presidents Harding and Coolldge. The vote on the Pepper plan w 6, all the republican members Senator Johnson, Californi, being recorded in favor, and democrats present in opposition. The plan approved by the commit. tee recommends adhesion to the court on condition that the court statute |and protocol are so amended that the United States shall have the same voting representation as any other power; that the “original jurisdie tion" of the tribunal shall be re. ted; and that judges shall be elected under a council and assembly composed of signatory powers instead of similar auxillaries of the league of nations. Only one change from the text of the Pepper plan as introduced Thurs- day was made in the committee, It would have the effect of admitting to the bencfits of the courts any nation which has diplomatie relations with any signatory instead of restricting them to signatorie Lodge Withdraws The proposal of Chairman lLodge Wwhich would have set up an entirely |new cour® was withdrawn by its au- thor before the committes had an one portunity to vote upon it The resolution reported contains textually half dozen amondments that the other nations would be required to adopt as a condition of American membership.
