Split Imminent in Both Parties Over W orld Court Three High Republican Of ficials Against Harding's Plan—Wilson's Stand May Cause Democratic Break. By MARK SIM,IVAN. I Special Ilikpatch to Hie Omaha Dee. ' Washington, April 23.—It has be come clear during the past week that • of the four high officials of the re publican party, three are against the world court. The four high priests are the president: the national chair man, John T. Adams; the chairman of the republican senatorial commit tee, George Moses of New Hampshire, rind the chairman of the republican nntional congressional committee. Will Wood of Indiana. Of these four, Mr. Wood last week served notice on Harding that under his official responsibility he felt called upon to object to the introduc tion of the world court as a, repub lican Issue. Senator Moses Is in Europe; but everybody in Washing ton knows that he Is opposed to the court and has actually gone on rec ord as favoring a fellow isolationists. Senator McCormick of Illinois, rdther than Harding, for (lie next presiden tial nomination. The third official. Chairman John Adams of the national committee, has made no public decla ration. Split Is Serious. There can be no minimizing the seriousness of this split between President Jlnrding and the other three official leaders. Chairman Wood is in a position to say to Mr. Hard ing: “My official responsibility is as great as yours, and gives me the right to ho heard. I am responsible for electing republican congressmen. Inasmuch as our present majority is barely 15, mine Is a serious and diffi cult function, l’ased on my official knowledge of the conditions, my judgment is that the presence of the world court as a republican parly is sue is a handicap and I ask that it be abandoned.” Chairman Moses of the senatorial committee can go to Harding, begin by pointing out his official responsi bility tor the election of republican senators next year, snd then continue with the same speech as Mr. Wood's Could Back Harding. Of course the facts might be dif ferent. These three insurgent party officials could take a different atti tude. They could say, “The president is the head of the republican party. What he say a goes. We may not like it, but we defer to it. Instead of putting our own contrary views for ward publicly we accept the Issues as the .president makes them, and will do our best to support them and early them through.” In the democratic party there is the imminent possibility and the acute fear among democrats of a precisely similar split. Democratic leaders rarely ever pick up a daily paper without a tremor of apprehen sion lest they find in It something from Woodrow Wilson that will “spill tlie beans.” If Wilson conies out with a demand that the democratic party shall stand where he compelled it to stand in 1920, In favor of the league of na tions, as is. and against any lesser or partial steps toward International co-operation, then In that event, most of the other democratic leaders will throw up their hands. Success Seen Without Wilson. But if Wilson will remain silent on this point, or take a more tolerant position, the other democratic leaders believe they can so phrase this broad issue of foreign relations, and so maneuver the situation next year as to win success through a republican split. These democratic !(^ders want to be in favor of the int^nattonal court and of other steps toward co operation for the prevention of war, but short of the league of nations as it is. They say there is sure to he a split in one of the pafties and possibly in both; and they think that If Wilson will remain silent they can confine the spilt to the republicans. But they fear Wilson greatly. Qne of the four or five most promi nent democratic leaders said to the writer; "I should like to come out in favor of a modified league of nations, tut I am afraid Wilson might "bawl i me out.” II, S. to Enter Court. As regards the world court spe cifically, it is the strong Judgment of the present writer that after the f fighting and shouting is over America will enter, not Harding's court exactly as it stands, but a modified world court. It will really be a strunger court than Harding proposed, but by the debate In the senate, and by other processes, it will have been divorced from the league of nations even more completely than Harding now pro poses. In spite of the clear repubilean .split, a decided majority of the pres ent republican senators are In favor of America entering a properly or ganized world court. Of tlie demo crats, all are* in favor of It except a a ant three or four hard boiled irre onncilahles of the type of Heed of Missouri. (OpyHjght, 1923.)

Washington. April -S.—The Depart Intent of Agriculture has issued a for mal statement declaring that trading in grain futures would not he inter rupted by the operations of the grain future# act upheld by the supreme court, so long as the exchanges com plied with the law. Several ex changes, the statement said, already had met the requirements and the Chicago Board of Trade had an nounced its intention to co-operate in enforcing the regulations. "Reports that this law will put the grain exchange out of business or interfere with their legitimate func lions are entirely without foundation," said the statement. "It does not in terfere witli hedging transactions on the boards of trade that receive desig nations as ‘contract markets.' Neither does it interfero with ordinary specu lation in the buying and selling of contracts for future delivery on such markets. "If, however, there shotild evi dence of undue manipulation or at tempts to corner the market, or of tlie dissemination of false or mislead ing -information about crop or mar ket conditions by members of tho ex change#, such conduct would be in quired into ami promptly dealt with as required by the law. The-law gives authority to observe ami inquire into the operations on grain exchanges and to speak with authority concerning Auch matters. No Trading Here Now. “The Omaha exchange docs not trade ftl futures at present," said President Ham S. Carlisle of the Oma ha Grain Exchange. “The statement from the Department of Agriculture, however, is opportune, because the decision of the court probably left an impression .among the country gram trade that trading in futures of every character was to be prohibited."

Marriage Aid to Education Former Nebraska Man Finds 1,1 .Easier to Work Way hen Wedded. I'hleago, April 23.—The Chap who works tils Way through college and is i rally anxious to get something out of his work should ,grt married right at tlie start. It's the necessary stabilizing Influence—takes the wom en off his mind and gives hint time to think. Tills is the formula ror success in ; school work prescribed by Merwyn! Heald. engineering student Bt North western university. To back up hlsi claims that matrimony "makes a ' man,” Heald points to a third scholar- . ship record shattered by him. Kor three seasons he has been supreme, finishing the last semester with an ( average of 111:l per cent. To show that when a fellow gets down to business and studies in a j home of his own ho is able to con centrate as never before Heald points: to a 3 months-old babe.

"I'm going to school now as a busi ness," Heald said In discussing his successes. "When I went before it was merely a pastime. “It's the best thing that ever hap f.ened to me in the way of getting a college education—getting married. “The only place to study is in a home of ypur own. I went to Ne braska university. I was single then. I was a fraternity man. I soon found that a 'frat' house doesn't settle down until after midnight.

Teach chil dren regularity of bowel movement, and be especially watchful of young girls. Insist on two passages a day until the age of 18, when one is usually sufficient.
