ID EJECTING the advice of certain
IN possibly timorous advisers, Presi-
dent Harding has firmly committed
himself, and his party SO far as he is
able, to American membership in the
world court. In his New York address
before the members of the Associated
Press he asserted that this was in
keeping with American ideals, and fur
Their had been repeatedly advocated
by the Republican party in national
conventions and by himself as that
party's candidate. He explained the
plan clearly and without technicality
and told how important the tribunal
will be in the work of restoring Europe
to normal conditions The President
insisted, as he has before, that he has
no intention of trying to inveigle his
country into the League of Nations.
On this topic he said
''In compliance with its pledges the
new administration, which came into
power in March, 1921, definitely and
decisively put aside all thought Of the
United States entering the League of
Nations. 1t doesn't propose to enter

or the cellar door, / have no unseem-
ly comment to offer on the league. If
it is serving the old world helpfully,
more power to it. But it is not for
u.s., The senate has so declared, the
executive has so declared, the people
have so declared. Nothing could be
more decisively stamped with finality."'
Concerning the fear of some of the
Republican leaders that the issue
would split the party, Mr.. Harding had
this to say: ~
II would not have it thought that
hold this question paramount to all
others confronting our government. l
do not hold it a menace to the unity of
any political party. 1T is not to be
classed as party question, but if
any party, repeatedly advocating a
world court, is to be rended by the
suggestion Of an effort to perform In
accordance with Its pledges. it needs
new appraisal of its assets.
"Our problems at home Invariably
call for first consideration. Our own
house must be kept in order, our own
good fortune must be assured before
we can be large contributors to world
progress or measurably helpful to hui
