thought and courageous action may
be found. nowadays, in any consider
able locality. There, too, may be dis
covered marriages so unhappy, so de-
grading in moral effect, so lightly
held, as to arouse in such heroine
an intense loathing of marriage itself.

ACTION ON COURT
PLEASES JUR|STS
Ratification by Senate An
nounced by Wickersham at
Today's Session.
By the Associated Press.

GENEVA, January 2S.-Informed
ny the Associated Press of the Senate's
ratification Of American adherence to
the World Court, George w. Wicker
sham announced the news at the open
ng Of today's session Of the conference
of jurists engaged in drafting a code
OF international law which it is ex-
pected will vastly increaes the use
fulness of the court.
The jurists, representing many
lands, greeted the announcement of
the American decision with express
sions of qualification.
Before entering the meeting Mr..
Wickersham, who advocated adher-
ence to the court in addresses in many
parts of the United States, voiced his
personal satisfaction over the Senates
action.
He explained that the reservations
as thus far cabled to Geneva appar-
entity added only two to those recon-
ruended by the late President Harding
And former Secretary of State Hughes,
the first giving the United States per-
mission to withdraw from the court
at any time, and the second specifying
that no advisory opinion shall be given
by the court until after a public hear
States without American consent.
Considering the fact that the
United States reserves the right To
withdraw at any time" said Mr..
Wickersham, lit seems somewhat
ungracious to say that no change
shall be made in the constitution and
statutes of the court without its con-
sent.
Advisory Opinion Provision.
THE provision with reference to
advisory opinions is substantially the
same as is contained in the rules
of the court. There is no reason
why a practice thus settled by the
court itself should not be embodied in
the statutes.
The only regrettable circumstance
is the requirement that nations mem
bers of the court must agree to the
American reservations before the al
terrence of the United States becomes
effective.
This means a considerable delay
but after all the essential thing is
that the United States by this act
takes an important affirmative step
toward cooperation with other ma
tons to secure the peace of the
world"
DolIoNo tdlut
The general opinion in League of
Nations circles is that the Americans
overestimate the value Of the World
Court, which handles questions of
law, whereas the most dangerous dis
putes, menacing world peace, are po-
litical, economic or financial and en-
tail political negotiations rather than
legal decisions.
The American action, nevertheless,
is hailed as of the greatest moral
value in advancing international CO.
operation. League spokesman eX-
pressed the opinion today that, If any
of the American reservations affect
the functioning Of the court or the
relations of other nations to the
court there will be a period of diff
cult negotiations with the other sig
natories, whose approval must be
unanimous.

warren CONFERS
ON MEXICAN LAWS
Talks With President and
Kellogg in Controversy
Over New Acts.
By the Associated Press.


Charles B. Warren Of Detroit. for
mer Ambassador to Mexico and head
of the Amerfcan-Me Commission,
which negotiated in 1928 the basis for
the recognition Of Mexico by the
United States. has concluded series
Of conferences with President Cool
idge and Secretary Kellogg relative to
the diplomatic controversy over the
new Mexican anti-alien land and pc
troleum acts.
Mr.. Warren was invited to Wash
ington after receipt of the Mexican
reply to the American protest against
retroactive features of the two acts.
Neither the American nor the Mexi-
can note has been made public,
but it is obvious that the interchange
has not cleared up the situation to
the satisfaction of the Washington
Government.
The former Ambassador refused To
indicate today what advice he had
given concerning the next step of the
Washington Government in its effort
TO protect the interests of Americans.
The State Department also declined to
reveal the nature of the conversations
with Mr.. Warren or the present status
of it's plans for dealing with the Mex
lean problem.
Despite this silence, there is every
indication that further diplomatic cor
respondence is in prospect.
