NENANA ICE POOL CLOSES *
 WINNER TO GET STAKE

Guessing on the time the ice will move in front of Nenana came to an end yesterday noon, the time set for the closing of the annual Nenana ice pool, and the record of ticket sales, as prepared by the committee during the afternoon, shows that a total number of gues- es deposited in the official boxes will exceed 1O.700, which means that the winner of the pool will re- ceive considerably over $10,00O, by far the largest amount ever contain ed in single ice pool in Alaska. The exact amount to be paid the lucky guesser willnot be known un- til the work of listing the guesses has been completed and other ex- penses definitely ascertained.
 A detailed statement of sales and other data in connection with the pool will be prepared by the com mittee and published probably in the next issue of The News.

GERMAN POLICE QUELL RED DISORDERS
REPUBLICAN, PARTY BREAK
 MAY RESULT FROM ACTION

WASHINGTON, D. C. April 21- Expressing the belief that Republi- can opposition to the administra- tion's world court proposal is even stronger than opposition to the pro posal of Wilson to become a mem Der of the League of Nations, Re presentative Will R. Wood, chairman of the Republican Congressional committee told President Harding today that he believed it a mistake for the party to urge the proposition
 The statement of Wood to the President constituted the first open opposition to the international court proposal among Republican leaders, outside the ranks of the ''irrecon- cilables." It was stated by Wood. after the conference, that he had left the President unshaken in his advocacy of the proposition.
 Wood expresses the opinion that the continued advocacy of the world court plan will create a split in the ranks of the Republicans and deprive them of a clear cut issue with the Democrats, in asmuch as the Democrats seem generally fa- vorable to the Harding proposal He said he had presented the views as his own but felt sure they were shared by large group of Repub- iicans. He told the President that he had recently visited Indiana and had found there and in other parts of the Middle West strong opposi- tion to membership in any tribunal connected with the league. It is understood the President took the position that the opposition is based largely on misunderstanding of con ditions attending acceptance of the proposition. He plans shortly to pub fish a statement explaining the whole proposition. :::. |" ..s:-
