Harding Opposed on Court Plan Dissention in Ranks of Own Party Develops Over Policy. (Copyrifht, IMS ) Washington, April 12.—The lines of opposition to President Harding's International court proposal within his own party were drawn tighter to day. While republican senators of the regular school, like Watson, of Indi ana, were sounding warnings against the political consequences of press ing the court issue, Senator William E. Borah, republican, Idaho, made a reply to Herbert Hoover in which he asserted that the league court "like the whole international field" is to be governed by political forces, and not an Impartial code of justice. Kor this reason, the Idaho senator declared, he is opposed to the league court. At the same time he an nounced his Intention of conducting a fight for a "real court”—one in which International law is codified and justice may be dispensed unhamper ed by the political prejudices of the countries involved. The league court, like other arbi tration tribunals set up in the past, Senator Borah asserted, will be ren dered impotent "by the intrigue and politics of Europe." Disagrees With Hoover. "I agree entirely with Mr. Hoover as to what he says an international court should be." said Borah. "I only disagree with him as to what the league is. "Mr. Hoover says: 'The interna tional court is to deal in a judicial way with questions which arise under international treaties and under es tablished international law: to pro vide a place where judgment may be given on the merits of a great multi tude of questions for the settlements of which there has been no process, i xcept negotiations or their ref erence to arbitration.’ "That is precisely what I would like to see—an international court to deal in a judicial way with questions arising under international treaties and under established international law. That is the kind of a court which I proposed in my resolution. What I contended for was: first, the codification of international law. You cannot have a court unless you have a code of laws under which it is to act and under tlie sanction of which it Is to make decisions. No Court Without I.aw. "Tou can no ®ore have a court without law than you can have life without air. But the present court has no jurisdiction, except by consent of the parties. In other words, it can not construe international treaties or international law unless the parties see fit to submit a question in a way of arbitration. “This court cannot acquire jurisdic tion, except by consent of the parties, which, of course, makes it a court of arbitration and places control of the court and of all questions relative to the court under the direction and con trol of the political Influences of the tifferent Kovernments. "The inference from Mr. Hoover's uddress last niirht would be that this roupt has power upon the initiative »f any country to acquire jurisdiction Man and $75,000 Disappear Red eyed and sleepless Mrs. Mortimer E. landman of Pittsburgh waits for word of her husband.

Cal,, April 12.'—Dr. Al bert Kinstein's theory of relativity Is confirmed by results deduced from ; photographs of the eclipse of the sun taken at Walla 1, on the northwest coast of Australia, September 21, 1922. by the W. If. Crocker eclipse expedition from the Kick observatory. 1'niversity of California, according to a statement issued by Dr. W. W Campbell, director of the observatory, who beaded the expedition. "These results are in exact accord with the requirements of the Kin stein theory.” Dr. Campbell's state ment said. "The agreement with Kin stein s prediction from the theory of relativity, 1.75 seconds of arc is as close ns the most ardent proponent of that theory could hope for. ”fn fact, the agreement of our ob served data with the predicted value is so satisfactory that the Lick ob- i servatory does not plan to repeat the Kinstein test at the solar eclipse due to occur in extreme southwestern Cal- j ifornia and in Mexico on September : 19, 1923.” --I If you like The Bee, tell your neighbors about it.
