Replying to the criticism directed at the court plan by Senator Borah (Retf., Idaho) and other irreconcllables, Mr. Hughes insisted that the connection existing between the court and the league was so remote that the United States could not become entangled in the league. • Moreover, he contended, every possible danger suggested by the critics, of becoming involved was met by th»_ reservations he suggested to the senate when President Harding submitted the court protocol to the senate. "Those who desire that by this method the United States shall become a member of the league are indulging In vain hopes and those who are alarmed at such a possibility are entertaining vain fears," said Mr Hughes. Further on he said: "The permanent court Is thus an establishment separate from the league, having a distinct legal status created by an independent organic act. "The fundamental question," he continued, "Is whether the league of na- 1 tion» controls the court. To this there Is a ready answer. The league does not control the court; that Is an Independent Judicial body. It is not a servant of the league and its decisions are not supervised or controlled by the league. "The establishment of a permanent court lias been an American policy because we have desired this essential Improvement in Judicial process in international relations. Political platforms have treated this as an American policy and not as a forbidden entanglement. If you are to treat participation in a permanent court of International Justice as an entanglement foreign to our institutions, ydu must rewrite American history."* *&• m *• 2271 Are Saved in SHltiWrfcck Off West Coast of-Africa Capetown, April 30.--A Portugese gunboat arrived at Mossamedes, Portugese West Africa, Saturday with 110 survivors of the steamship Mossamedes, wrecked several days ago at Cape Frio.

Wellington, May 1.--Supreme court of the United States by a 7 to 2 division handed down a decision of far-reaching consequence and wide ramifications in the long controversy over extension of the American prohibition law to vessels at sea. The principal points in the decision. Justices Suther^nd and McReynolds dissenting were: American ships may carry Uqobr and well it as a beverage to passengers beyond the three-mile limit. ' Foreign vessels may not bring liqupr within the three-mile limit, even if sealed as ship's stores. . ' The claim that "prohibition fol- ' lows the flag," heretofore maintained by the government, is not sound and must be bolstered up by additional law to make it effective. Congress hafi power, which it may exercise i.t will, to prohibit intoxicating beverages on American vessels anywhere at any time, bne feature of the new situation, according to lawyers, is the legalization of rum row off the New Jersey coast and the inconsistency of naval aetion against the smugglers beyond the three-mile limit. The decision, instead of disposing of the controversy, promises to intensify and complicate It. It opens up a prospect of involved diplomatic exchanges and bitter parliamentary battles. As Justice Sutherland, in his dissenting opinion pointed out, the majority decision threatens to lead to "international misunderstandings" and is likely to Invite retaliatory measures by foreign nations. The State department probably will have a busy season of uotewriting before the question is settled. " v' • 500 RUM Refugees to Enter.
