WASHINGTON Feb 26. = The
Harding administration fully realizes
1T is under definite pledge to Gre
ate an association of nations" to
take the place for the United States
of the League of Nations and an eff
fort will be made to accomplish such
step toward world peace.
This statement was made to the
United Press today by one of the
highest authorities of the American
government. regarding. President
Harding's request to the Senate for
authorization to have the United
States represented officially in the
of Nations but with reservations
keeping, this country from any con-
hection with the league itself
At the present time there does not
even exist any very definite plan for
such an association, this authority
indicated. He said that the policy
of the administration was 70 take up
and settle one important thing at a
time.
Consequently. the administration
does not claim that American par
ticipation in the court is the "asso-
citation of nations" that President
Harding is pledged to--that is to
come later And neither may Amer
lean entrance into the court be taken
to indicate that such larger ques-
tons menacinG world peace, as the

many, will bt brought before the
body for settleyrent.t
1t is now gIterally agreed in the
Senate that al prevail of the Presi-
dents request cannot be obtained
during the last week OF the present
session.
The belief prevails here that the
President took his action in order to
have the matter before the country
during the long recess of Congress
and thus counteract the activities of
those who have been claiming the
United States has not been doing its
full part in stabilizing world peace.
