Harding Repeats Plea for Court "By Joining U. S. May Make Largest Contribution to Civilization.” By Associated Press. Washington, June 7. — President Harding declared in a letter made public here today that by accepting membership in the world court the United States "may make its largest feasible contribution to the stabiliza tion of civilization while at the same time surrendering nothing of the ad vantages of independence," now en joyed by the American people. The president's letter was ad dressed to Bishop Thomas of the (Jailor of Tennessee, head of the na tional council of the Protestant Epis copal church, who had written to as sure the president that there were many thousands of citizens who deem it a matter of honor that in some way the American nation should con tribute Its influence to rehabilitate the countries of Europe. “We Are All Human.’’ “You know we are all human enough to have the feeling that the man who agrees with us Is the broad minded and really intelligent person.” the president wrote in reply. "Not gunny days ago I made the observa tion to my newspaper callers that I did not believe any man could con front the responsibility of a president of the United Stutes and yet adhere to the idea that it was possible for our country to maintain an attitude Responsibility Counts When you leave your films with us for develop ment our experience counts for results; our up-to-date equipment counts; the fact that we use only first quality • chemicals counts.

"It is my concern first that there shall be an effective recognition of this fact and that those who because of their positions are earliest com pelled to realize this situation, maybe assured the understanding and sym pathetic support of the great intel ligent public opinion of our country. Beyond that, I am keenly desirous that the right course shall be foun 1. whereby our favored country inay make its largest feasible contribution to the stabilization of civilization while at the same time surrendering nothing of the advantages and inde pendence which we enjoy. After much of thought, study and conference, I reached the conclusion that our ad herence to the program of the inter national court represented a compli ance with these conditions. A linger Step. "It is a longer step than some would wish us to take in this direc tion. On the other hand, it is a less advance than some others would wish us to take, but to me It seems to meet the requirements of our peculiar situation and permits us to the world that we are ready for our part in furthering peace and stability, with out entanglements of surrender of policy to which we are long and strongly committed. “I am gratified to know that In tak ing this attitude I have seemed to you to deserve the commendation you have so cordially extended." Senate Will Approve World Court Approval (t'mtimied From Fiigp Onp.) recede from, and has not said that he is in favor of participation in the league, a harmonious adjustment is possible. However, the national committee will he on the alert. Its chairman will claim credit for having stopped a stampede in the direction of too ■ lose a participation in the affairs of Europe, while maintaining at the same time that the world court does not imply obligations upon this gov ernment which the irreconcilables are opposed to. Mr. Adams and the parly leaders have insisted that opposition to entanglement in European affairs does not mean this government is de sirous of obtaining a position of iso lation. On the contrary, they hold the United States is more than willing to reach a helping hand out to Europe. What they object to is that in doing so they nmy be drawn overboard by the persons they aim to aid. It is like extending aid to a drowning man. The victim of the drowning accident is in clined to imperil the safety of his rescuer. On this basis an arrange ment is possible. Reservations Planned. On the strength of this arrange ment, which has been reached be tween President Harding and Senator Watson, the world court acceptance Mutual Wives of Baseball Sheik to Do Hula Hula for Defense Fund — Two Pretty Women Plan to Aid Husband Charged with Bigamy by Sister Act on Los Angeles Stage. _ Los Angeles, June 7.—When Nell R. Collins and Dorothy M. Collins, mutual wives of R. P. Collins, sheik of baseball, step before the footlights here next week and do the hula hula, the dance will be given for a positive ly unique object: To defray the ex penses of Collins' defense to the charge of bigamy, growing out of his marriage to the two pretty young women. Also, if there is any money left, they may divide it between them selves for living expenses, until such time as Collins Is able to assume the role of bread-winning husband with out danger of again being thrown Into jail as a tacit disciple of poly gamy. Collins is facing trial in Santa Ana, Gretna Green of Southern California. The two wives said today they had arrived at an agreement with each other whereby, If ever again they are afforded opportunity to wed Col ling, they intend to leave it all to him as to which one he shall safely lead to tiie altar. The two have decided to appear upon the stage as sisters and are hopeful the public will be liberal in its patronage, as they Intimate fears it will be expensive getting the dia mond sheik in legal condition for him to make the great matrimonial decision. Collins will appear tomorrow be fore Justice J. R. Cox at Santa Ana for preliminary examination. Today, both wives insisted that, though they had been subpoenaed as witnesses for the state, they would do nothing to aid the case against him. The defendant married Ruth sev eral years ago but led Dorothy to the parson only a few months ago. Soon afterward Collins was arrested and thrown into jail and it was in cident to the two women's visits to him there that they became "friend ly enemies.” by the senate will be hedged with res ervations which will make it possible for all parties to be satisfied, except the league advocates. The democrats are expected to ob ject to the reservations, which will be described by them as nullifying. Hut they will be countered by the ex planation that the court is a step in the direction they wish to go: there fore it will be impolitic for them to refuse the half loaf, if they cannot get the entire measure they demand. President Harding has several things up his sleeve which he will make plain on his western trip. He has long let it be known he desires an association of nations—not the league—but nations acting in concert for the benefit of peace. Such an as sociation was represented when the naval armament conference was call ed. It Is his belief that nations can act In concert without, sacrificing their independence and initiative. The leadership of the United States —the opportunity to impress upon the world the principles of just deal ing among nations which events and this country's power and opulence has given it—are not to be sacrificed. The president contemplates giving this message to the country on his west ern trip, it is expected to be a coun ter to the suspicion that ha* grown up in certain quarters that the world court represents a surrender of these principles. The president has been developing a far-reaching foreign pol icy which he will expound on hi* west ern trip.

Dear Miss Fairfax: I hope you can give me good advice, as you give won derful advice to others. Fortune tellers and others told me of a certain man I know that he is in love with me. L know this man and I see him often, because 1 have to: hut I think that he lias a business that he cannot make very many dates, or maybe lie is bashful, for all I know: but I love tills man myself; but. of course, he don't know that 1 know all of this of him and that 1 love him also. What 1 would like to know is would It be proper to say something about it to him and how could I express my self or, maybe, you could suggest something else as to what I could do to let him know that 1 know all this, or would it be best to let this he on my mind and wait for him? Please. Miss Fairfax, havfe this letter in print as soon as you con. I thank you. ANXIOUS. Yes. I would adv! e you to put your aggressive thoughts out of mind and "wait for him." You seem confident that he will come to you if you do. I am astonished to discover a girl who believes that a fortune teller speaks the truth when she says a certain man loves you. Of course you know that the fortune teller really doesn't know anything about It. A fortune teller often tells hack to you what you have told to her. Perhaps that Is what happened In this case. I do not take a young man's hash fulness quite as seriously as I should. Perhaps tt in because I have observed that when a boy loves a g;ri He usual ly manages to seek her society. If this boy cares for you I think he'll let you know aiwiut It without any vigorous or enthusiastic aid from you Marooned: Yes, an attorney could help you get a copyright, but I think you might secure it yourself by tak ing the matter up with the Federal de partment at Washington.

Personally, I would not care for the veil and other formal accessories for so small a party as you plan, but there is nothing Incorrect about it.
