HOOVER URGES IN WORLD COURT Ho Tells Women Voters It Is America's High Duty, SAYS BORAH IS IMPRACTICAL Secretary of Commerce Declares Senator Wanted to Go Further Than People Were Willing to Follow Him. Dos Moinea, Iowa, April American membership in the permanent court of international justice, organized by the League of Nations, was advocated by Secretary of Commerce Hoover as essential step" in thu direction'df 'world peace.

have opposed membership in the league itself, lie saul, need not hang back from participation in the court or fear political entanglements through its operation. He replied directly to criticisms by Senator Borah, of Idaho, who, he declared, really wanted to go "further" than the American people were willing to follow him. Secretary Hoover spoke before the annual convention of the National League of Women Voters. His address was the first detailed reply from administration quarters to those who have assailed' the court proposal since it was laid before the senate by President Harding. It marked the beginning of the public debate in which most of the leading men of the country are preparing to take part.

To go into the cou'rt, Mr. Hoover said, would not be "entering the league in any sense." On the contrary, he argued, it would aid in placing international relationships on a basis of law rather than politics. It would at the same time continue the American policy of con- cilution and good will exemplified in the armament conference and in re- cet relations with La tin-America. "The proposals to join the court," he said, "have been criticised from various angles. The first of these is that it leads us into some undescribed political entanglements.

"This is untrue, for the decrees of the international court are based iipi-n the process of law, not xipon political agreement; their enforcement rests wholly on public opinion and not upon force. "In supporting this court we subscribed to no compulsion whatever. Compulsion is, i fact, specifically excluded. We do not need to submit iny case to the court unless we feel like doing so at the time the case arises. "No other nation can summon us inio court except with our consent.

Tlie court itself cannot summon us, nor in any manner or degree exert upon us any kind of compulsion, not even moral. Our proposal to enter the court and the act of adhesion to it which President Harding has asked, is based upon the assumption that compulsion is not necessary for poo- pies of good will and a sense of justice. "One section of the opponents of President ITarding's proposal condemn it because it does ot go far enough; because it has no teeth in it. This is the basis of Senator Borah's objection. "I admit the enlightenment and tbe- conrage of his position, He would have an international court of such strength that it would try war itself and would have us join it in such a manner that we would be obligated to it-s jurisdiction.

"Senator Borah's international court, In its relation to the nations, would he somewhat an analogy to the su- prem court of the United States in its relation to our stntes. But let us admit that as a practical matter, for reasons familiar to all of you, America is not ready to go this far."
