A world court could be created, which It would be safe for us to join, and which would help promote the cause, of peace. I do Intend to bring up changes In the present plan when It comes before the Senate I mean the plan of Joining the League's court with the Harding-Hughes reservations. Says It Would Create Own Ijaws. "Labor feels that courts should not make their own laws. Some courts now establish principles of law, out of the statutes.

It Is planned to create a court with no lnw to govern It except that made by Itself. We have no esabllshed or accepted code of international law.

MacDONALD loses COMMONS FIGHT ON CRUISER BUILDING London, July SO UP) Former Premier Ramsay MacDonald made strenuous efforts to secure passage by the House of Commons of an amendment condemning the Government's cruiser-building program last night, but the government's stand was approved when his proposal was rejected by a vote of 270 to 140.

He made the plea that it was unnecessary to Inflict an additional expenditure of 58.000,000 on an already overburdened country, adding to this the argument that there was absolutely nothing to Indicate a war for many years. Mr. MacDonald deprecated any suggestion that the United States and Japan were possible enemies. Several other speakers also referred to this phase of the Naval problem, but their remarks were vague and of a general character. "Economists" Showed Strength.

Although the government's majority In the Commons enabled them to defeat the MacDonald amendment, it is generally conceded the "Economists" dealt some telling blows, and the opposition newspapers are making much cnpital of it. Winston Churhill, Chancellor of the Exchequer Is particularly scored for his alleged submission to the coercion of his colleagues and defending a cruiser-building policy, to whicfi he was originally opposed. The struggle within the Cabinet between the supporters of the admiralty and the economy party recently ended In triumph for the admiralty. The Cabinet decided that 4 new cruisers should be laid down in the current financial year, terminating the end of next March, and after that 3 cruisers yearly the life of the present parliament. The economy group, of which Mr.

Churchill was supposed to be the head, had opposed committing the country to a building program in future years, but the Chancellor yielded because of threats of resignation by the first lord of the admiralty, W. C. Bridgeman, and the sea lords. The remark of Rear Admiral Sue-ter, superintendent of aircraft construction, that there might be friction between Japan and the United States, and that we might be dragged In In the same wav as America was dragged Into the great Is being commented upon, but the hints of danger from American naval power in the Pacific have not attracted special notice Gambled Away His Fortune; Now Is Sued for Divorce i Brooklynites Given Medals for Sports Drilling and Field Work-Camp Breaks Up Today.
