KILLING THE WORLD
WITH

President Harding's yielding in
his St Louis speech to the demand
of Republican directors to the
World Court was doubtless with
the best intentions, but it has had
the extraordinary result Of bring
ing into peril the entire project
upon which, he says. he has set his
heart. In a recent issue Of the New
York Times is published n canvass
of Democratic Senators. It shows q
surprising reversal since a similar
inquiry was made for TIE Times last
May. Then there appeared to be
thirty-six Democratic Senators who
favored the Presidents proposal
that we enter the World Court,
with only two against and six doubt
full. With the aid Of assured Re-
publican support this made the out
look for ratification by the Senate
almost a certainty.
Now all has been changed. Mr..
Hardingis later reservations intend
ed to cut the World Court loose
from every kind Of connection with
the League of Nations and to give
the Judges power to fill any va
cancy which may arise in the Court
have driven nearly all the Demo-
cratic senators into open opposition.
They can easily muster numbers
great enough to defeat the Presi-
dent If he pursues the negotiation
of a treaty along the lines which he
indicated at st. Louis. This cloud
ing of the prospect for our entry
into the World Court is much to be
regretted. But the cause of it is
unmistakable. The good nature Of
the President was imposed upon.
A way was pointed out to him in
which he might win over two or
three Of the disaffected Republican
Senators. He did not perceive that
in the act of gaining them he would
lose almost the entire body of Dem
ocratic Senators. His strategy
was well meant, but it is already
clear that it Vas disastrous.
