The United Btates Gov- @rament looks with friendly eyes on Sheestablishment of the World Court f International Justice, even though that body has been created by the League of Nations. 4 The Harding Administration, fear- fal of the wrath of the “irreconcil- ‘@bles,” will not openly lend Its influ- nce to the establishment of the qourt, but the Council of the League @f Nations has prudently mved the Washington Government much 6m- @arrassment by addressing {ts invi- tation to Mibu Root, Judge Gray of Delaware and Oscar Straus, who &re the permanent American members of The Hague Tribunal. Without com- mitting the Harding Administration fm any way to submit its disputes to the jurisdiction of the new court, in making the constitution of which Mr. t played so important @ part, the invitetion to nominate Judges for the geurt will be accepted. @be Department of State has made ie clear that the United States Gov- nt is watching with consider- fie eter the development of the rt, and while the fact that the rt was made possible by the rare is recognized, no comment is © upon America’s future rela- jopship to it.

A. Stiliman will appear before Ret- counsel for Mra. Anne Urquhart Btill- man in his divorce case against her, on June 28, 29 or 80. Cornelius J. Sullivan, attorney for Mr. Stillman, stated a few days ago that he would not produce his client on June 28, as had been announced previously, ow- ing to his determination to save Mr. Stillman as much publicity as pos- sible. This leaves June 29 or 30 as the day on which the banker will, ac- cording to best information obtain- able, take the witness stand and un- dergo the volleys of questions Mrs. Stillman’s attorneys are preparing for him. A conference of Mrs, Stiliman's counsel, which included Jobn F, Brennan, her leading attorney; John E. Mack, guardian of Guy Stillman; Abel L Smith and Charles J. Wallace, was held to-day in Mr. Brennan's office In Yonkers to formulute these questions and also to prepare for the examination of other witnesses who will be on band when the hearings are resumed on the 28th. It is understood that only three wit- nesses now remain to be called in be- half of the plaintiff, these being Mr. Stillman himself and the clerks of the two hotels in Montreal, who will testify as to Mrs. Stillman’s registra- tion at their hostelries on certain dates. The defense has a list of fifty wit- nesses, most of these being women. It 1s probable that among them will be some from Canada, who are said to be coming forward voluntarily to refute the testimony of certain “keyhole” witnesses against Mrs. Stillman. One of the new witnesses, it is un- derstood, is a maid in the employ of Mra, Klorence Leeds until a short time ago. She is said to have written Mrs. Stillman she was willing to ald her, s she had been “literally starved" and subjected to other in- dignities by Mrs. Leeds. Her offer, acoompanied by her name and ad- dress, was received last Saturday. It was aaid to-day new terms of set- tlement of the case out of court are being drawn and will be submitted to Mrs. Stillman by friends of both parties to the suit.

Had the amount been appropriated, Democratic members of the Estimate Board claimed, it would have exceeded the constitutional tax mit. “We have weathered the storm,” said Mayor Hylan when the fund was voted.

In 18% he was defeated for President of the federation at a convention here by John McBride, a mine worker. In the contest for the office to-day —the only time since the 18% defeat that Gompers’s position as head of the labor movement has been sert- ously threatened—his opponent is a coal miner, John L. Lewis. Lewis came to the front in the labor union movement during the coal miners’ strike 1919. He rode over the determin opposition of the Federal Government to prevent the strike. The settlement gave to miners ithe increased wages Lewis had sought. As a result of his experience Lewis is probably a more conservative leader to-day, but he still evinces a spirit calling for quick, spectacular action, The support which each of these two leaders draws from the conven- tion bey er is in conformity with their methods of working. “Any such eee as is pro- posed will be not only isgrace and jan insult to the Admire but it will be an insult to the uniform and to every officer and bluejacket im the Amertoan Navy. “Admiral Sims is an officer of the United 8 citizen and land at any pi States bad vidarntdahed Lio atlas insult of hum 1,000 POLICEMEN WILL MEET SIMS BY ENRIGHT ORDER Commissioner Makes Extensive Provisions to Smother Least the remainder of the $27,000,000 de- ficit, will be due.

To-day’s action of the committee means more than paying teachers’ salaries. It assures the opening dur- ing vacation of 200 public school playgrounds for which The Evening World has campaigned; fifteen play schools, seventy-eight centres for handicapped children, forty-eight va- cation schools, daily steamer trips to the shore and country, 3,500 quarts of milk a day and the opening of nine swimming pools in schoois. ——— SINCLAIR FIRMS OWN SAFE HELD STOLEN OL NOTES Theft of $299,000 Apparently Done Without Use of Burglar Tools. | by Major Michael A.

NINE VESSELS VANISH IN LAST YEAR, LEAVING NO CLUE TO FATE (Continued From First Page). More than 1,000 police will guard Admiral Sims when he arrives in New York to-morrow morning on the Olympic, Police Commissioner En- right announced this afternoon. The Commissioner said he did not expect any disturbance, but that any one who was looking for trouble would get it. “No one will be allowe! on the plier without proper credentials and no one will be allowed near the pier,” said the Commissioner. Acting Chief Murphy will be in charge of the police at the pier and on the way to the Pennsylvania Sta- tion. Down the bay, where it is in- timated the Sinn Fein demonstration against Admiral Sims is to be staged spector Hallock of the Marine Divis- jon. Kelly has intimated that the precautions made by the police will ‘be circumvented in the lower bay. “There will be an Irish ship down there,” he said. “Watch for a sub- marine with the Irish flag.” The Olympic !s expected to dock about eight o'clock to-morrow morn- ing. A conference was held yester- day between the officials of the White Star Line and George W. Aldridge, Collector of the Port, with the result that it was agreed there should be no passes issued to the pier. This will bar a crowd from getting on the pier and is expected to act as a pre- ventative to the presentation by the Sinn Fein of any leather medals, ironic resolutions or miniature jack- asses, Maj.

The steamer Monte San Micheles, 4,600 tons, sailed from Genoa for New York, and has been posted as missing since Feb. 26. Other missing or lost are: American tanker Hewitt, 3,394 tons, sailed from Sabine, Tex., Jan, 21, with a cargo of sulphur. Steamer Yute, 2,974 tons, from Ba’ timore for Dunkirk, Nov. 14, 1920.

In addition to the report from Washington of the strange disap- pearance of five American ships, news has been received here that a committee of London shipowners has been organized to investigate similar disappearances from the other side of the Atlantic, It is be- ing recalled in maritime cireles here that many vessels have ‘been lost in the past year and that numerous casualties have occurred to ships for which explanations are lacking, particularly in the last two or threa months.

TOKIO, Japan, June 21.—Terrific floods are sweeping large areas of Japan. The death proached 200. Entire villages were submerged un- der fifteen feet of water in the Hita district. At Kyushu more than 600 houses were washed away. Heavy rains caused the floods. The district of Kyushu was inun- dated so quickly that thousands had narrow escapes. At least 180 per- sons drowned there. The flood quickly swept hundreds of the Nehtly constructed dwelling houses into the torrent, where they collapsed and were carriod out to sea in a mass of debris.

Kidd ts hinted as the cause by Government officials, At the same time, the search has been joined in by four other depart- ments of the Government—the State, Treasury, Commerce and Justice. Consuls abroad have been notified to look out for any clue to the vessels and the Secret Service operatives have been put at work. One theory is that bootleggers have taken the ships to aid in running Hquor into the South At- lantic States. This arises from the fact that Senator Simmons of North Carolina, recently complained to the Senate that there were not enough coast guard outters to patrol the coast. He said that liquor running was being indulged in freely in de- | fiance of the law. Senator Hale of Maine !s under- stood to be primarily responsible for an extended investigation, stretching over the past month or so, by agents for the Department of Justice and the Bureau of Navigation of the Depart- ment of Commerce.
