WORLD COURT Plan
! SOON UP TO i. S.
President Hoover to Pass on
Efforts to Bring About
Adherence.

BY the Associated Press.
President Hoover soon will be called
upon to pass Judgment upon the latest
effort of American statesmen TO bring
about American adherence 10 the World
Court.
An agreement worked out by Elihu
Root and a number of foreign juriSts
at Geneva which would pave the way
for adherence by this Government is
expected shortly i'm Washington and
will be turned over Immediately to the
White House by the State Department
for the Presidents attention.
The agreement deals with the reserva-
ton of the Senate respecting advisory
opinions, and while some concern has
meen expressed by Senate leaders re-
gsrding the trend of the Root confer
ence in this field. the opinion holds
among both Republican and Democratic
Senator's that MIR. Root Is able and eX
perienced enough to safeguard American
interests.
Exchange of Views.
The formula contrived by Mr. Root
and his associates permits an exchange
of views between the United States and
the League of Nations Council both be-
fore and after the court has received
request for an advisory opinion affecting
the interest of this country. This Is
intended to take the place of the Senate
reservation which stipulated that the
court shall not entertain an opinion
In any matter in which the United
States has or claims to have an interest.
Changes in the wording of this for
mula as originally proposed by Mr..
Root, which were made at the SuggeS-
ton of Sir Cecil Hurst of Great Britain.
have caused a number of Senate leaders
TO express concern over its acceptability,
but. along with the State Department,
they have expressed willingness TO
await the text of the whole proposed
protocol before arriving at any conclu-
eions.
Agreement on Wording.
The international juristS have reach
ed tentative agreement on the word
ing of the protocol Mr.. Root, however.
is understood in Washington to desire
the Hoover administration to pass upon
il before a final understanding Is ar
rived at. and for this purpose the text
is expected to be laid before the PreSi-
dent without delay.
Except for some anXiouSneSS among
Senate leaders, the conviction held in
Geneva that the new protocol for Amer
lean adhesion will prove acceptable to
the Senate is reflected in Washington.
The hope has been expressed that the
work of Mr.. Root and his associates
will so adequately cover the views of
both foreign governments and those
conveyed by the Senate reservations
that scant difIiculty will be experienced
In finally bringing the United States
into the World Court.

generous manner in which the North

veterans.
The program includes twelve state
planks and about as many national
measures. They deal with conser-
walton of state resources; soil sur
veys; opposition to the damming of
boundary waters and to the abolish
ment of military training at the uni
versity; child welfare proposals; re-
lief for widowed mothers of veterans,
and the changing of fishing and hunt
ing opening dates so that as not to
deract from the observance of Mem
