Senate Irreconcilables,
backed by Senator William E.
Borah Or. of Idaho, will pro-
pose a redrafting of the World
Courts powers when Elihu
Root brings home his compro-
mise plan for handling the
tribunals advisory opinions,
it was learned today.
While opposing the Root com.
promise. which the Geneve confer.
ence APPARENTLY will approve, the
Irreconcilables win suggest that the
League Of Nations statute creating
the World Court be revised to deny
the tribunal all authority to issue
advisory opinions against nations
not members of the League. This
substitute for Roots compromise has
Borah's approval, it was learned.
Sees Impasse Ended
The Irreconcilables will contend
that this plan would end the i'm.
passe between the United States
and League members over advisory
opinions.
Borah, it was learned, opposes
the Root compromise. 1t was said
he looks upon the Root plan as an
attempt to make court out Of
an attorney general" He was
quoted as saying that IL advisory
opinions against non-nlembers of
the. League were eliminated, there
would be no need for Article 5, the
anti-opinion reservation or any
other such nonsense"
With Borah supporting them, the
Irreconcilables feel they can defeat
the Root compromise in the Senate.
Just as in the case OF ratifying
any treaty. it will require a two
thirds vote of the Senate to modify
the World Court adherence to the
extent of approving the Root plan.
A resolution undoubtedly will be
offered in the Senate, once the
question reaches debate, asking the
league to revise the courts powers
on advisory opinions. AS one Ir-
reconcilable said:
I'm our country, the Supreme
Court decides cases: the Attorney
General furnishes opinions. The
AMERICAN pSopae anu IuS SENATE
are opposed to a foreign court
rendering any opinion on a ques.
ton. affecting our rights, when
We are not a party to the issue
before the court.
Europe, however. wants this sort
| of opinions. The answer is to re
wise the courts powers so 1t car
render opinions for members of the
league and deny it advisory juris
diction over non members of the
league. That is the road to a rea

What type of girl best typi-
fies young American woman
hood?
Who is the girl who per-
sonifies these elements and
qualities? Where is she3
The Times, when it joined in the
search, thought the typical Ameri-
can Girl was in Washington. 1t
still thinks so. Scores of Times
readers think so also. Girls from
all walks of life; the business office
the home, school and club are being
nominated for the honor of repre-
senting this city as a typical Wash
ington Girl. The Times Is firm in
the belief that the typical Wash
ington Girl is also the typical Amer
lean Girl.
Maybe Passing Now
Perhaps at the time you are
reading this article the typical
American girl may be passing you
on her way to the club; perhaps
that is her seated opposite you and
pounding away on the typewriter,
or may be she is the one who is
romping with, the little children In
the park across the street. Wherever
she is. readers of The Times will
help search her out.
The typical American girl gets
a big kick out of being with her
sisters and brothers, If she has any.
She is not the scatterei-brained
parsonage that some people try to
make her out to be. She is just
an American Girl. That is sufflc-
lent endorsement for her anywhere.
Not Exceptional
Remember it is not the excep.
tional girl that Is being sought nor
the most beautiful girl, nor the
most talented. The Times is trying
to find the girl. who strikes the
happy medium, one who embodies
all the characteristics that go to
make up the average in young
American womanhood.
Perhaps the typical American girl
Is a keen admirer of aviation. Who
knows but what the girl is the
owner and operator of her own air.
ship. Or, perhaps she is sports
woman, riding her pony down the
course in polo match. Or, again,
the typical American girl might be
lover of home life. one who
makes perfect partner for any
man.
Who knows What the typical
American girl is like? She can only
be judged by one standard-"Is this
girl an embodiment of the .charac'
teristics that go to make up the
