WORLDS FIFTY YEAR
DREAM Of COURT OF
JUSTICE is REALIZED
United States Has Never Def
nitely Announced Policy
Regarding World Court.

GENEVA, Sept. 15.-(U. P.)-The
worlds so year dream of an interna-
tlonal court of justice became reality
when the league of nations elected 1 1
judges and four deputies to the world
court Johp Bassett Moore, of the
United STATES, was elected member
of the court. The announcement Of
his election was received in Washing
ton, according to advices, with the
deepest official interest. This will not
affect the United States "hands. off"
policy, however. Secretary Hughes and
President Harding, having failed to
answer the leagues invitation for the
United States to "sit in" on the world
court.
The United States has never defin-,
Itely announced her policy regarding
the world court, or the league of ma
tions, but it was predicted that Presi-'
dent Harding might bring the United
States into the court as part of the
plan to form an '-association of ma
tions' 1t is understood the United
States has not replied to the invitation
to participate in the world court be-
cause the invitation came from the
league of nations. The United States
has no communication with thel
league. Secretary Hughes explained
that the United States would NOT en-
ter the world court or similar bodyl
except under the treaty which the
United States senate ratified. Moore
will serve on his own responsibility as
a free lance. is the opinion here
