year sentence for coi1spiring to de-
fraud the government.
Although only AZ years old. Col.
Forbes appeared to Warden w. ].
Biddle to be a much older man. He
limped as he walked slowly through
the prison gate. A stroke of paral-
ysis a year ago has stopped the
lively step with which Forbes once
marched as a drummer boy in the
marines and later led signal batal-
ion IN France.
After physicians report next week
about the state of the prisoners
health, the warden will decide what
kind of work he will assign to him.
He weighed only $50 pounds. while
his normal weight was around 225.
Forbes had little to say except to
assure his keeper that he will make
the best of it." He said his nearest
relatives is his 9o-year- old mother.

League Believes
u. S. Reassured on
Question World Court

Geneva, Switzerland. March FL
(AP)-Satisfaction was voiced IN
league of nations circles today over
dispatches from Washington that the
state department seems convinced the
League does not wish to inject itself
into the world court problem, but
merely to point out a possible chan
mel of settlement by the members OF
the court acting in concert.
A frank discussion of the American
reservations, it is believed, may lead
to some agreement by the signatories
without involving the question OF
modifying the United States senate's
reservations. Officials reiterated to-
dag that the league organism ceases
to act once the conference invitations
have been sent out.
It was remarked II the idea OF
reaching a common agreement be-
forehand had been followed by the
council Of the league with regard TO
Germany's application for member
ship the recent crisis might have been
avoided. In the meantime the friends
of the league are convinced that the
league has gained new strength IN
one direction, because recent events
have demonstrated the futility OF
trying to use Geneva's international
machinery for the furtherance of pol
itical aspirations and the advance
ment Of special national interests.
The steady increase in the secret
sessions of the council Is being con-
demned as largely responsible for the
recent crisis since they have fostered
the idea of secret covenants as
against the fundamental league prin-
ciple of open commitments openly ar
rived at.
Indications are that effects will be
made by some to prevent public ses-
sions of the Forthcoming meetings OF
the disarmament commission whicn
United States delegates will attend.
The sentiment here. however, appears
in favor OF complete
publicity, and 1t is even remarked
