All street lights on Coal street and nearby sections of the Heights were put out of commission early this morning when several young men In a stolen automobile knocked down an eleetrle light pole on New Grant street which carried feed wires from East End to the Heights. council and assembly of the League of Nations. The court decides such international disputes of a legal nature as the disputants choose to submit to it. It also renders advisory opinions to the League of Nations on current international questions which the disputants tliave not submitted to the court. "The court has been functioning since 1022.

It is composed of able and high minded men. Not the leaRt able and high minded is our fellow ctlzen, John Bassett Moore. The court has ably dealt with the few cases which disputants have submitted to it and has rendered less than a score of advisory opinions. "The most ardent advocate of the court would hardly contend that the court has as yet proved to be an effective agency for peace. On the other hand, no fair minded person will deny that the very existence of the court serves to keep before the world the Ideal of Justice Judicially administered.

Few will deny that this Ideal should be preserved and cherished as essential to civilization."
