Choice of Senator In Pennsylvania
 Held Up By Funeral Plans Today

Harrisburg. Pa, Dec. 10 LPI-Se- lection of junior senator from Pennsvlyania was halted tcmporari- " today to permit the chief eXecu- tive of the state and others in off, cial and political life to pay last honors to Representative W. w.. Griest, Of Lancaster.
 Governor Fisher, who IS to appolnt a man to take the seat denied Will liam s. Ware in the senate, will at tend the funeral services at Lan- caster. Ware will also be there. as will Pcnnsylvania's only representa- tive in the upper branch of congress Senator David a Reed.
 It was said today at the executive offices that MT. Fisher, because Of the solemnity of the occasion. would not indulge in political conferences over the choice of a senator, despite the presence of Ware and Reed.
 Appointment by Governor Fisher of Joseph F. Grundy, president or the Pennsylvania Manufacturers association. as junior senator was considered in political circles today as almost a certainty.
 Friends of Grundy pointed out that the Bristol manufacturer, prob- ably would have rejected a protfer of the seat but for the fact that a question had been raised in the sen- ate about the right of the governor 10 name man who does not meet with the approval of some of its members.
 Grundy. it was stated, feels that, Tn view of the speech by senator Nyc of North Dakota, the day Will liam s. Varc was rejected, the right of the governor to use his own dis cretion as the representative of the people, should he carried to con- cluAon. Accordingly, he was de- scribed IS prepared to accept the challenge, provided he is named by MT. Fisher.
 Governor Fisher has not indicated that he would appoint Grundy anu the latter has been non-committal concerning his acceptance if he 's offered the post. The attitude ot Attorney General Cyrus l.. Woods one Of the governors close advisers, however. was accepted as virtual confirmation of reports that Grundy was the executives choice. The at torney general was said to have been one of the many prominent men who urged the appointment of Grundy.
 Meanwhile Mr. Ware went ahead with plans for his cam paign for re- nomination at the May primaries. William R. Douglass. his Washing ton secretary, has been appointed to manage his campaign and expected 10 open headquarters in Philadelphia today.
 Whether Mir. Ware will have the solid backing Of the Philadelphia republican organization is prob lematical. Several ward leaders who opposed his slate at the primary last September were said to be ready tc join any movement against his can didacy, particularly if Mir. Grundy is appointed 10 fill the vacancy and decides to be q candidate in May for the full term.

is necessary for ratification
Committee OrCaDjye,1


 New York, Dec. 10 R}-M obiliza- ton of national sentiment for ratih- cation by the senate of entry of the United States into the permanent court Of international justice has been undertaken by a committee representing a group of social, po- litical and religious organizations.
 Formation of the group. to be known as the National World Court committee, was announced by it's executive secretary. Everett Colby. Offices of the committee have been opened at East 39th street in the same building with the offices of the League of Nations partisan committee of which Mir. Colby Is executive committee chairman.
 His announcement said:
 "The committees sole aim is to support Mir. Hoover and friends of the court in the last steps necessary to complete the movement begun when Mir. Harding. by 9 special mes sag" proposed 10 the senate, I'ehru- ary 24, 1923. that the United States should apply for membership in the court.
 To Mobilize Sentiment
 Authorities in Washington say that it may prove justifiable to post pone ratification of the protocol until after other nations have rati- fled it, in which case the president may not refer tho protocol to the senate for some time to come. On the other hand President Hoover may be prepared 10 recommend it to the senate at any time in order that it may be ratified before the disarmament conference. The ob- jcct Of our committee is to mobilize the sentiment of tho country for the benefit Of the senate"
 Mr. Colby said the committee is similar to ono formed by rcprcsCn- tatives of q number of organiza- lions favorable 10 United States par ticipation in the world court during earlier efforts 10 effect American membership. Virtually the same group of organizations are repre- scented on the present committee.
 Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt of the national committee on the cause and cure or wars is vice chairman of the flew committee, Josephine Schain is secrtary and Raymond B. Fosdick is treasurer.
 The executive committee includes in addition to the above, Charles C. Bauer of the League of Nations as sociation; Philip C. Jessup; Ruth Morgan of the League of Women Voters; Henrietta Roelofs of }he Young Women's Christian assoCia- ton, and Philip C. Nash.
 Others On Committee
