ANOTHER WORLD COURT BATTLE IN
SENATE LOOMS, RESULT OF ACTION
OF DELEGATE ADVISORY CONFERENCE
Protocol. if Accepted BY Pow
ers Represented at Geneva.
Would Need Approval of u.
s. Senate, Thereby Reopen.
ing Most Bitter Struggle OF
Last Session

Washington, Sept. 24.--tR Posi-
bility Of another fight in the United
States senate over American adhe-
sion to the world court loomcd today
as the result Of the action of the dele
gate advisory conference at Geneva.
The conference approved the draw
in" up Of special protocol to trans
late the five American reservations
into the language Of the court and
the covenant Of the League Of Ma
tiOns. The protocol, which will be
forwarded to Washington, would give
court members the right to- withdraw
their approval of the fourth and fifth
reservations in the future.
sNcels Senate Approval
The protocol. if accepted by the
powers represented by the Geneva
delegates, would need approval Of the
senate, it was felt here by observers
who said that President Coolidge
would be without authority TO cx-
change ratification without further
advice and consent Of that body. and
that submission Of the supplemental
document probably would reopen the
struggle which had been one Of the
most bitter Of the last session Of
congress.
The fourth reservation prohibits
amendment of tho court statute with
out the consent Of thc United States,
and the fifth prevents the court from
accepting requests for advisory opin-
ions on disputes in which the United
States "has or claims an interest"
Entire Question Complicated
4 While state department officials
declined To comment in the absence
of official advices, "a feeling was ap-
parent that the entire question Of
American membership had been COM
plicated to great extent by the ac-
tion of the conference, which would
defer indefinitely, if not prevent
completely, participation Of the Unit
ed States in the work Of the court.
The report Of the Geneva confer
ence is merely advisory. and initia-
tive rests now with the powers rep
resented, each being free to reply to
Washington in whatever fashion it
deems hest.

FLORIDA'S DISASTER.
THE LISBON EARTHQUAKE.
A WOMAN'S SPEECH.
VACUUM. FLASK, FLAPPER.
BY Arthur Brisbane.

The disaster in Miami and othc,
parts Of Florida proves to be more
extensive than first reports indicat.
ed. Hundreds are killed, gigantic
property values swept away.
None the less. Florida wilr not be
discouraged. The rest of the nation
deeply sympathizing, knows that ali
parts of the country are exposed Ia
tho fury Of natures forces.
We read with horror Of "hundreds
killed." and well may. It is wise tC
remember that one single shell, burst
ing In war. time, may kill more than
were akilled in this Florida tornado
One, h'hcavy shell, dropped from a
bombing airplane could wipe out more
life and property than the great
FLORIDA wind destroyed.
Men become accustomed to every
thing, especially when il happens at q
distance in a space and time. We
talk now calmly Of 20 million lives
destroyed by the great war, and that
number is no exaggeration. News Of
hundreds killed in Florida moves as
more deeply than did news that tens
Of thousands had been wiped out in q
single battle.
Man breads especially the stroke of
natures power, realizing his helpless
ness before it. Al any moment our
great sea coast cities might be swept
man can no more prepare against It
than the ant can prepare his tiny city
against the gardeners watering pot.
Men have learned to take disaster
effort.
II was not SO in other days. When
"the great earthquake Of Lisbon
wiped out>thOusands Of lives and de.

in God and In eternal justice, as 9TH
