THE WORLD COURT
AMERICA'S ADHERENCE ALL RESERVATIONS MUST BE ADOPTED. NEW YORK, Ist September. The "New York Times'* Washington' correspondent states that a report from Geneva that the League Conference had adopted all but the fourth and fifth reservations of tho United States Senate 's World Court resolution has excited interest here, but official circles have made it clear that acceptance of part of the reservations would< bo insufficient to ensure American participation in the Court. - Any desiro interested nations may; have in securing a definition or interpretation of the fifth reservation, which is one to which strenuous objections have been made, will fail of realisation if appeal is made to tho Stato Department, which feels that such would have to come from tho Senate alone. The discussion of tho fifth reservation in tho Senate furnished ono of the chief bases of argument against American adherence to tho Court, and, in view of the attltudo of Senators Borah and Reed, who aro now striving to 'Secure nullification of tho Senate resolution by speeches all over the country, it is considered unlikely that" any limitation of this reservation can bo secured.
