BY JAMES T. WILLIAMS, Jr.
If the Senate should debate and
vote upon the pending League
Court protocols upon their merits,
they would be overwhelmingly re-
jected.
Instead of receiving the support
of two-thirds of the Senators pres
ent, as the Constitution requires,
these protocols would not receive
the support of a majority of the
Senators present if the question
could be disposed of free from out
side pressure.
But the Senate is debating the
protocols under a pressure never
contemplated by the trainers of
the Federal Constitution. This
pressure is coming not only from
the League of Nations propagand.
lists but also from the White
House. It is the pressure from the
White House that is tempting
Senators to abandon the require
ments fixed by the Senate for
American entrance into the Court
when vote upon that was taken
by the Senate in January. 1926.
An Unusual Move
President Roosevelt did a most
unusual thing when he intervened
in a Senate debate upon a treaty
with special message. Doubt
less he was urged to do this by
the League of Nations propagan-
dists who are trying to stampede
the Senate into accepting Ameri-
can membership in the League
Court without the protective reser-
vations adopted by the Senate five
years ago.
In this special message Presi.
dent Roosevelt did not refer to the
Senate requirements of five years
ago. To this extent the platform
upon which Mr.. Roosevelt was
elected President appears to have
been overlooked.
The Democratic platform of
1882 gave a limited and condi.
tional endorsement to the pro-
posed entrance of the United
States into the League Court. The
platform favored membership only
upon the condition that all of the
Senate requirements were met.
The platform refers to the Court
protocols with appended reserva-

were contained in the Senate's
resolution of conditional ratifica-
ton adopted on January 27, 1926.
Whether the new protocols now
before the Senate are ratified will
depend in large measure upon
whether those Senators who voted
for the Senate's reservations OF
January, 1925, stand by the con.
victions they then expressed or

1000 Delegates to AntiWar
Conference Hear Keynote
Speaker ASSaiI Hitler

Discussion of the threat of war
through spread of relationships.
the price paid in loss of human
lives and loss of economic security
as the result of the last war and
the movement toward United
States membership in the League
of Nations today featured the
opening of the tenth conference
on the Cause and Cure of War at
meeting at the washington Hotel
More than 1000 women, rep
resenting II member organizations
and constituting the largest at.
tendance in the history of the
group, are here for the four-day
conference.
Hits DictatOrships
The keynote of the conference
was sounded by Dr.. Stephen A.
Duggan, director of the Institute
of international Education, who
listed seven factors "inimical to
peace" The most threatening
of all these factors, he said, is
the spread of the dictatorship
particularly as exemplified by
Chancellor Adolf Hitler in Ger
many. He declared:
"The seventh factor inimical
to peace is the extension of the
'Fuhrer Prinzp.' as the Ger
mans call it, that is, the leader
principle, a euphenism for the
dictatorship.
"By the censorship of the
press, the dictatorship is en-
abled to lead its people to be.
lieve the most fantastic things
concerning the attitude of for
eign countries to their own and
to develop an animOSity that
may require only a spark to
set it off.
"Such ignorance of the true
facts of a situation breeds fear
and fear breeds terrorism. Die.
tatOrship and terrorism are
synonymous terms"
PRICE OF WAR
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait
honorary chairman of the ma
tional committee on the Cause
and Cure of War, in a survey OF
war and peace developments over
the past 10 years, told the con
ference that the present depres
sion is mot the price Of peace
but of war"
That the United States is NOV
ing nearer and nearer toward
membership in the League o1
Nations was the high point in q
speech by Felix Morley, econom
ist and writer.
Mr.. Morley declared that the re
cent moves for entry into the
League Court and the United
States membership in the Inter
national Labor Organization in
dicated that this country is
heading for the League of Ma
tions.
Although at the time the
United States joined the labor
organization, proponents OF Ine
move said it would not lead tc
membership in the League. Mr.
Morley described the labor or
ganization as IAN autonomous
but none the less technically sub
ordinate arm of the League oi
Nations"
Also, after IL years of "pa
tiently endured delay" Mr.. Nor
ley said, the United States is or
the verge of ratifying the League
Court protocols.

BLOCKED BY
THOMAS
0kIahoman Opposes League
Tribunal; Senate Shifts
to "Hot Oil" Bill
BY WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON
Copyright, 1885, by International
News Service)

The Administrations drive for
American adherence to the
League Court suffered a setback
today when Senator Thomas CD
of Oklahoma announced he
would vote against it.
Senator Thomas said he form
erly supported the League Of
Nations and its international
court in the belief they were
agencies for the promotion Of
world peace, but added:
Il regard American entry into
the court as comparable to an
honest man entering a den Of
enemies"
The issue was placed aside
temporarily to permit enactment
of the Connally oil bill, drawn to
ban "hot oil" shipments in inter.
state commerce and to replace
the oil clause in the National
Recovery Act recently held un.
constitutional by the Supreme
Court.
Adams for 1t
While Senator Thomas was de.
claring against the court, Senator
Adams DO of Colorado an.
nounced he would vote for adher.
ence, saying:
II am for the Court but not
vOciferOusly for it. I think it
Is a move for world peace and
we ought to try it. But
wouldn't want to underwrite
the consequences"
Senator Thomas held an entire.
ly different opinion.
Il am against the Court now,
1 favored American adherence
to it in 1920.
1T is a different Court now.
Now the nations of the world
are against us economically,
financially, commercially and
nationally. Many of them owe
us repudiated debts. Some of
them hate us. Others regard us
as an OvergrOwn child, who
doesn't know his own mind.
Il look upon American entry
into the World Court at this
time as comparable to an hon
est man entering a den of en-
emies. believe we would come
out of it dirtied and SCARED.
The psychology of it is wrong.
Not single good purpose would
be served by going into the
Court.
SURPRISED AT MOVE
"And am surprised that the
Administration has brought
forth this controversial issue at
a time when our country is in
its present plight"
The counter attack was credited
to the radio attack on the Court
Sunday by the Rev. Charles
Coughlin, Detroit radio" priest.
An Administration leader re-
ported his poll disclosed go Sen.
ators favor adherence, six more
leaning that way" with 10
against adherence, with four more
leaning away from the Court"
He had no check of the six ab-
sent Senators.

FOUR MEN AND WOMAN GRNLED IN CAR BARN MURDERS
Senate Vote on Court
TOBe eUnder Pressure

abandon those convictions under
pressure from the White House
and League of Nations propaganda
lists within their own States.
The pending protocols omit
three of the most important reser-
vations adopted by the Senate five
years ago. The reservations thus
omitted from the pending proto.
coils are:
First, that American entrance
into the League Court shall not be
taken to involve any legal rela
tions on the part of the United
States to the League of Nations
or the assumption of any obliga
tions by the United States under
the Treaty of Versailles"
The fact that this reservation
has been eliminated from the
Court protocols now before the
Senate means, of course, that the
members of the League were I'm
willing to accept it as a condition
for American entrance into the
Court. If they had been willing
to accept it they would not have
eliminated it from the pending
protocols.
Second Requirement
The second major requirement
of the Senate for American en-
trance into the Court which was
adopted five years ago reads as
follows:
"That adherence to the said
protocol and statute hereby ap-
proved shall not be so construed
as to require the United States
to depart from its traditional
policy of not intruding upon,
interfering with, or entangling
itself in the political questions
of policy or internal administra-
tiOn of any foreign state, nor
shall adherence to the said pro-
tOcOl and statute be construed
to imply a REIMBURSEMENT by the
United States of its traditional
attitude towards purely Ameri-
can questions"
The third major requirement
adopted by the Senate five years
ago, which has been omitted from
the pending protocols is thai
which stipulated that recourse tt
the League Court for the settle
ment of any differences between
the United States and any Other
nations "can be had only by agree
ment thereto between the parties
in dispute"
Omit Conditions
Any ten-year-old boy or gir
knows that conditions to a con
tract are not met by drafting 9
new contract which omits the con
ditions of the old contract.
This is what the League Court
protocols now before the Senate
do-they leave out three of the
major conditions stipulated by the
Senate five years ago as essentia.
to the protection of the United
States in any dealings with the
League Court.
If the men still in the Senate
who voted for these conditions
five years ago insist upon them
now, the ratification of the pend
ing protocols will fail because the
pending protocols do not contain
these conditions and the pretense
that they do is an insult to homes
itelligence.

just how lucky they were to eke out a 6-5 victory of the selfsame Elks Sunday .,
 The Antlers, on the other hand, want a win, although they are hopelessly out of things. It would do Manager Al Koski and his lads lots of good to trim either one or both of the league leaders in this final week of play.
 With the Moose and Elks set to play tomorrow, the Legion and the Elks are due to cross bats at 6:30 o'clock Friday night, an announce ment made by President William Holzheimer indicated today.
 Then, on Sunday, comes the big game which will decide the second half championship, providing both the Moose and the Legion have de- feated the Elks. The Black Sox and Doughboys are due to tangle at 5:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon in the schedules final game.

J. P. ANDERSON
 RETURNS HERE ON NOVEL TRIP
Head of Juneau Florists Gathered 1000 Botan-
 ical Specimens


 There is no doubt that he took one of the most unusual vacations possible in the. Territory of Alaska, but J. P. Anderson. owner of the Juneau Florists who returned from the Westward last night on the Yukon. is more proud of the fact that he brought back with him more than 1000 botanical speci- mems.
 Anderson set out from here five weeks ago. his light automobile truck travelling with him on the steamer to Valdez. For four weeks he drove that truck over the many miles of Alaska's Interior highway system, and went as far as Circle Hot Springs.
 But the length and originality of his vacation means little to Ander- son in comparison to the many hundreds of plant specimens with which he returned.
 i Everywhere I went" he said, T found people showing great in- terest in flowers Many times I was asked to Identify certain speci- mems, and everywhere people were helpful in obtaining rare plants for me- | Perhaps one of the rarest speci- mems which the Juneau floral ex- pert brought back with him is a itSwhffe lady slipper Not only did he return with botanical speci- men of this rare north country flower, but he brought several live plants for friends here who have wished to cultivate the slipper" l"
 Andersen also mentioned a visit with Lawrence J. Palmer, Biologi- cal Survey he d in Fairbanks. Palmer showed the Juneau man the extensive Survey botanical collec- tion, in which were many specimens which Anderson had never seen be- fore.
 But now the fun has just begun, 7 Anderson concluded. Tt was an easy trick to gather the plants And now I've pt a whole winters work ahead Of to properly classify and prepare my new specimens"

 but by and large the wide scope and devious methods of lobbying in Washington are as easy to see as the Washington monument.
 There is no secret whatever about the fact that hundreds of corpora tions, private firms, trade associa- tions, and societies of various kinds maintain representation at the cap ital; and that many of these repre- sentatives receive handsome salar- ies and generous expense accounts.
 Some of those concerned say very frankly that this is not surprising, considering what they have at stake The really surprising thing is that members of Congress arc able to put up such a show of astonisllment and indignation when testimony brings out what everyone familiar with the Washington scene already knew.
 R,ah Unprerlctable In spite of his 70 years, Senator Borah is able to maintain his stand ing as the one great figuie in na- tiyilal Ro.itics whose decisions are wholly unpredictable
 Hc attained that position nearly quarter of century ago. Tn the 1912 Republican convention he was r2vhar.s the outstanding floor lcad-. cc Of Thenaore Rooseyelt's revolt osainst Taft's renomination. He surprised everyone when the con- vention was over by refusing to join the Roosevelt bolt.
 Recently he came to the defense of the constitution with a force and an ability which led many people to ask in surprise whether he had become, after all these years, an ex- treme conservative. Some consery- ative Republican leaders began to say the party might do worse than to nominate him for President next year.
 Then without warning he an-' nounced an organized effort to force through Congress two bills calling for $5,00o 100000 imitation Of the currency both of them bills which President Roosevelt had rejected as too radical for inclusion in. the New Deal program.
 The question often has been ask ed whether MT. Roosevelt himself was headed left or right What about MT. Borah, who now is at ta cking MT Roosevelt on both Hanks?

GIANTS SEE EASY
SAILING AT HOME
Expect to Have Ten-Game
Lead Before Taking to
Road, Says Terry.
BY ANDY CLARKE,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

TINE Giants were back in New
York today to treat the home
folk to some high-geared base
ball in the Polo Grounds
where, they feel sure, the National
League flag viii fly in harvest time.
With almost third Of the season
gone, they came back for their second
stand against the Western clubs with
& record of which Bill Terry and his
men feel proud.
The Polo Grounds has been q lush
and green pasture this year. Only
three times have the Terrymen left its
greensward in defeat, and not once at
the hands of an Eastern team.
No team in the league has won more
than two games from them. They
lead the National League in team bat
ting and are practically tied with the
Cubs in team fielding. OFT and Moore
are tied for the league home run
leadership with 10 circuit clouts each,
while their five leading pitchers have
won rs while losing only games.
Today the Cincinnati Reds engage
the Giants in a double-h header. Cas-
tleman and Fitzsimmons have been
selected to attempt to widen the lead
Of the Giants which, Terry says, will
be 10 games before the club takes to
the road again.

Pirates Rout Reds.

THE Pittsburgh Pirates, favored by
some to wind up in second place,
dragged out the big berthas against
the Reds yesterday to demolish them,
Il to l. 1t was the only game played
in the major leagues.
Five round trip blows, three of them
in successiou in the eighth inning,
made winning a hopeless proposition
for Cincinnati Paul Waner opened
the bombardment in the eighth,
smacking the ball into the top tiers
of the right field stands. Then Arky
Vaughan. not to be outdone, hit one
to the same spot. Pep Young COM
pleted the stunt, which lacked one
homer Of tying the major league
record, by whaling one to the center
field fence.
Gus Suhr hit a homer in the fifth
to start the Pirates scoring and
Vaughan got his first of the day in
the seventh.
