Better that we should adhere to the
World Court only than to no inter-
national agency at all for the conser-
walton of international concord" con-
tinued Senator Bruce. "AS il is, L
think that the entry of the United
States into the World Court would
break the ice of our national aloof-
ness, so to speak. and would so habit
uate our country to the idea of CO.
operating with the other great powers
of the world for the maintenance of
world peace that it would finally be-
come inclined to assume the same
general measure of responsibility for
world peace as they"
Senator Bruce insisted that if the
United States is to join any court 1t
must join the present court. He de-
rided the notion that the other ma
lions would agree to set up a new
tribunal The Maryland Senator also
discounted the claim that American
entry into the World Court should be
conditioned upon the adoption of all
international agreement outlawing all
war between nations.
"In my humble opinion, the impor-
lance of this idea from a practical
point of view has been very much
exaggerated" said Senator Bruce.
The recommendation that American
entry into the World Court should
also be conditioned upon the codifica-
ton of international law also was
opposed by Senator Bruce. The ex
istence of the law of nations had been
recognized by the United States as
long ago as 1887. he said.

execution of the act would require the
vacation of their present quarters and
the erection of new buildings within
the reservation for their accommoda-
ton.
Three Buildings Included.
In estimating the total cost at $225,-
900, nearly one half was for three new
buildings of d character to harmonic
on reduced scale with the only other
buildings within the cemetery, the
Custis mansion and the amphitheater.

with the result that it was found that
the actual necessities of the case
might be met by the erection of "A sin

perintendent, located preferably near
the Fort Meyer gateway. There al

With these revisions and a few 9TH

to reduce the original estimate of the
cost of the entire project to 500 900.

Representative Blanton, Democrat.
Of Texas, a member of the committee,
promised his support OF the measure,
and emphasized that the House has
already acted favorably upon the prin-
ciple of the bill, when he made the
amendment on the floor of the House
that no child should be taken from the
care of the mother except on grounds
of immortality.
Questioned by Mr.. Gilbert of the
subcommittee whether such legisla-
ton has not a socialistic trend, Mr..
Blanton replied that If the mother
can take better care of the child in
her own home for half the cost to
the State he does not care whether it

Louis Simon, chairman of the New

D. c. COMMITTEE
MEETS TOMORROW
II No District Bills Are Ready
by Monday Opportunity
Will Be Lost.

Tomorrow is the first regular meet
ing day of the House District com
mittee, and if any measures for the
National Capital can be reported by
the committee tomorrow they can be
taken up for consideration in the
House on the first District day, which
is next Monday.
III no District measures are ready on
the calendar for consideration by the
House on Monday the District will not
only lose its opportunity for putting
through needed Legislation, but criti-
cal members of the House will have
another opportunity to complain that
the District committee does not take
advantage of the time allowed it in
the House.
Knows of Nothing Ready.
Chairman Zihlman of the House Dis
trict committee said today that he
does not know of any measure which
the committee has ready to report out
at the meeting tomorrow. There are
several non-controverSial measures he
recalled. which might be taken I'D for
consideration. Most conspicuous
among matters that may be consider
ed, he said, is the bill authorizing the
construction of two artificial public
bathing beaches in the District at a
maximum cost of S345 900
1t was rather generally believed
that the House District committee
tomorrow night report favorably on
the bill to enlarge the powers of the
District Commissioners granting them
municipal authority. This legislation
is designed not only to expedite ad-
ministrative action by the District
Commissioners on minor municipal
affairs, but to save the District com
mittee in Congress from considering
many pieces Of minor legislation
which have heretofore veXed the
House.
Report on Rules.
AS far as Chairman Zihlman saw
today the committee will tomorrow
devote It's attention to receiving re-
port from a special subcommittee on
rules governing procedure at commit
tee meetings which are designed to
expedite action in the committee and
to making some changes in subcom-
nittee assignments.
1t was thought that the subcom-
mittee, which held a hearing today on
the mothers aid bills, might be ready
to report to the full committee tomor-
row, but this action has been delayed
for another week.

BY JOHN GUNTHER.

LONDON, January 5.-Extraord-
mary rumors flooding London from
Milan, Bucharest, Berlin. Paris and
other capitals indicate that Prince
Carols remuneration of the Rumanian
throne was dictated by the Rumanian
government itself.
According to some of these stories
Carol planned a revolution by the
army in Bucharest on January 6, the
Rumanian Christmas day, as the re-
suit of his conviction that Rumanian
needed a military dictator like Greece
and Spain, and the further conviction
that he had been mistreated by his
royal parents on account OF his Vari-
Gus love affairs.

Plans for Revolution.

Berlin advices insist that Carols
plans for a revolution were well
known, and that they were supported
by many high army officers as well
as some subversive groups In other
countries, especially Germany.
A further angle to the gnarled story
comes with the fact that Carol. like
his father. is d Hohe1Zollern. Mean
while Carol is sitting tight at Milan
waiting for the storm either TO break
or disappear while the real truth as
TO who or what provoked the sudden
sensational abdication probably will
not he known for several years.
The fact that King Ferdinand and
Queen Marie proclaimed Prince
Carols 4-year-old son. Prince Michael.
as the new crown prince within few
hours of Carols remuneration, adds
color to the theory which now is al
most universally held that the royal
door slammed in Carols face and that
he was forced to get out.
