HUGHES PLANNING
TO GET u. S. INTO
NATIONS COURT
Desires American Membership
in Judicial Body, but
Not in League.
BY LOUIS LUDLOW.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Nov. Ia
With the elections out OF the way,
Charles Evans Hughes. secretary OF
state. VIII take up in earnest the
task or getting the United states
into the court OF international fus-
tiee without taking the country into
me League OK Nations. That he will
succeed IN this undertaking now
seems reasonably certain. The de-
sire OF this government 10 be a
member or tho international court
he's been communicated informally
10 the council Of the League OF Ma
tons
The council and the assembly OF
the league at their next meeting viii
undertake. II is understood here. 10
make e possible for the United
states 70 become a member OF the
court without taking mem bership
IN the league. The attitude OF Sec'y
OF State Hughes Is that the United
States should not become a member
OF the court unless and until II is
permitted TO have a voice in the
election OF judges or the court. IN
der the original constitution OF the
court OF international justice II IS
provided that the members or the
court shall be elected by the as
sembly and the council or the
league from a list OF persons nomi-
mated by the members OF the league.
The United States. not being a
member or the league. did not nomi-
nate candidates for judges. but
cans and the United States is now
represented unofficialN on the
court by virtue OF the votes OF other
nations.
Apparently the way r. now being
prer AIRED for the League OF Nations
10 amend the constitution OF the
court 70 have an appropriate voice
in the election OF judges. even
though that nation may not hold
membership in the League OF Ma
tons Private advices received
here from one OF the European
capital say that the major Euro
pean nations will gladly make it
possible for the United States TO be-
come n member OF the court on the
terms proposed by Sec'y OF State
Hughe~ and adds that the Euro
pean view is that IL the United
States does take membership in
this court Il will be the longest steF
yet taken by the government OF the
United States toward membership in
the League OF Nations.
Considerable correspondence re
lating 10 the proposed entrance OF
the United States into the interna-
tiOnal court already has taken place.
One authority said today that the
negotiations have progressed so far
that It might we'll be said that only
the formalities remain to be carried
out. II will take some months,
however. rs make the change in the
constitution OF the international
court which will enable the United
States to walk into that court and
at the same time keep its back
turned on the League Of Nations.

to have said meant J. Bolton Ken

Mrs Bailiff said she met Mrs.

ty parlor' in the spring Of last
year and saw her again there on
July 25. 1t was on the latter oc-
casion she related the dream, Mrs.
Bailiff testified, and Mrs. Oben-
chain said: "It means Belton is
going to die"
The witness asserted that Mrs.
