FAITH IN AMERICA
Whether or Not Pact Is Signed
VIII Be World Power.
Lord Reading, Chief Justice of
England, Expresses Confidence.

Portsmouth, Eng, May 2s.-The
League of Nations was the subject of
discussion at the opening session to-
day of the twenty-ninth conference of
the International Law association.
The Earl of Reading, lord chief JUS
tice and former British ambassador to
the United States, presided. There
were numerous foreign delegates pres
ent, but two Germans expected have
not arrived. An interesting paper was
presented in the name of Everett P
Wheeler. New York lawyer, in which
he expressed the belief that the United
States would yet ratify the league.
The American ambassador, John W.
Davis. will preside at tomorrow's ses-
sion when the laws of war at sea will
be discussed.
Lord Reading, in a luncheon adj
dress, said that the League of Nations.
which he trusted would in the future
represent International law, was the
hope of humanity. In his presidential
address, Lord Reading expressed the
belief that international laws would
never recover from the blow struck
during the war. unless the League of
Nations became an effective organiZa-
ton. 1t was a melancholy reflection
that while international jurists and
men of high ideals were striving TO
prevent war. nations, by every means
in their power, tried to Guido each
other in the strength of their death
dealing forces. But out of that strug-
gle had come a great epochmaking
document-the covenant of the League
of Nations.
'I do not say that 1t is a perfect in
strument," he added. ut is. neverthe-
less, a great document. What Amer
lea will do in the future, it is not for
us to Judge or prophesy. She will de-
eide for herself according to her views
and according to the views of her peo-
pie.
"But of this am convinced. wheth-
err she signs or does not sign, she will
remain the supporter of justice and
truth in the future as she has done in
the past. and those tribunals or ma
tions associated in the League of Ma
lions will be able to rely on her when
they give their views founded upon
reason and based on Justice"
