HARDING HITS AT FOES OF COURT (Continued From Page 1) power on the part of the United States with any nation in the world. With her dominions members of the league assembly, the British empire will have six votes in that branch of the court electorate, but it has only on° in the electorate of the council. In view of the fact that no nation can have more than one judge, it is a less formidable objection that when applied to the league as a super power, dealing with problems likely to abridge a member s rational rights. I appraise the objection as one who voted against this disparity of power in the league assembly. but in an appraisal now 1 do not hesitate to say that if other great powers can accept without fear the voting strength of the British dominions, when they are without ties of race to minimize international rivalries and suspicions, we ought, in view’ of tlw natural ties of Englishspeaking kinship, to feel ourselves free from danger. Matter of Development “The perfected court must be a matter of development. "We can do vastly more to perfect it in the capacity of an adherent than in an aloofness in which we abrogate to ourselves the right to say to the world we elect, but never comply. “i have indulged the dream, nay. a justified hope, that out of the encouraged and sustained court might come the fulfillment, of larger aspirat!ons. In the proof of its utility and a spirit of concord among nations might come that voluntary conference of nations out of which could be exnoted a clarified and codified interrational law to further assure peace under the law, and bring nations that understanding which is ever the first and best guarantee of peace. Question Not Paramount. “I would not have it thought that I hold this question paramount to all others confronting our government. I do not hold it a menace to the unity of any political party. It is not to be classed as a party question, but if any party, repeatedly advocating a world court, is to be rended by the suggestion of an effort to perform in accordance with its pledges, it needs a new’ appraisal of its assets. “Our problems at home invariably call for first consideration.

Gains in Commercial Strength “Our position commercially is gaining in strength, because we are free from political entanglements, or win be charged with no selfish designs. Mr. Harding at this point turned to the merchant marine problem, pointing out that a contradiction of the principle of less government in business was necessary and adding; “It would be a small Administration which would surrender the aspirations for an American merchant marine and scrap or sacrifice our great merchant fleet in a pique - of disappointment over the Senate’s failure to give approval. “For security of defense, for the advance of a like extravagant and ineffectual outlay in case of future war, for the promotion of our commerce and our eminence on the seas. I believe a great merchant marine to be an outstanding American requirement.” Answers Personal Criticism Turning to a change in American political thought, discussing the question as the first new-spaper president, and referring to alleged criticisms that “there is not a strong man" in the White House, Mr. Harding continued: "But a great change has taken place, virtually influencing, the work of administrative and legislative fulfillment. This effectiveness is no longer influenced by war stress or presidential personality. It is the change in our political system, the rule of the primary, the drift toward pure democracy, and the growing impotence of-political parties. “We have gotten away from the representative system; we have leached a point where the lack of party loyalty has made party sponsorshlp In Government less effective than

when a party platform is regarded by j too many men In public life as even less important than a scrap of paper and groups or blocs are turned t<> serve group interests and many in dividuals serves thrown while con tempt for party conference on causes has sent party loyalty pretty much into the discard. “Let no one misconstrue me, I am not advocating the abandonment of the primary, which gives to every voter a voice in nominating men for office and determining party policy.

‘BABY BRIDES’ OF SHILOH DENY ANY * COERCION BY'KING’ 'One Man’ Grand Jury Probing Alleged Immorality in Cult, By United Preen ST. JOSEPH. Mich., April 24. "Baby brides” married in wholesale lots at the House of David denied today that they were coerced into wedlock. Fourteen girls, who in affidavits asking for marriage licenses, declared they were more than 17 years of age, but who looked to be from 12 to 15, told of the weddings in testifying before Judge Harry Dingman. The judge is conducting a “one-man" grand jury probe of alleged immorality in the cult. All said they had entered into the ceremonies of their own free will and had closely observed the rules of the organization. The girls, in replying to the judge's questioning, declared they had not been forced into marriage after being cast off by "King” Benjamin Purnell, head of the colony. Countess Drake, one of the brides, admitted she was only 15, althouglu her age was give nas 17 in the affidavit asking for the license. Several of the* girl brides summoned as witnesses still wore their hair in a braid and knee-length dresses. Each wore a rope of pearls, symbolic of purity. The House of David rules provide that the wives In the colony must live separate from their husba.nds. The youthful husbands followed their brides into the room where the Investigation is in progress. Some of the boys, appearing to be only about 14 years old, were still unable to comply with the colony's regulations that. every man must wear a beard. Only a light fuzz showed on their faces. Both boys and girls were dressed in up-to-th€vminutes costumes. The girls were rouged, powdered and wore bright-colored dresses. The boys appeared attired as nifty as a “cake eater.” STATE FEDERATION OF CLUBS OPEN SESSIONS Third District Women Meet at Paoll. By Times Special PAOLI. Ind., April 24.—Mrs. H. D, | Hinkle.

C. —“About five years ago I had a very serious stomach trouble,” says Mr. T. G. Tucker, of this town. “I had a number of these spells. I would get cold and just shake, and had very severe pains in my chest. “I suffered a great deal. I kept using different remedies and did not get results. I would suffer till I would break out in cold perspiration. I knew something must be done. “I had taken Black-Draught, but just an occasional dose for constipation. I decided it might de me good in these spells. I took a dose after meals, and. sure enough, it did. “It helped me so much until now I keep It tn the house all the time. I am a shoemaker, and when I have by dinner sent to my shop I have a package of Black Draught where I can take it afterwards. It is a splendid medicine. I am glad to praise for the suffering it saved me. "I have used Black-Draught five years, and these spells grew less frequent after a couple of doses. Now I am much stronger than I have been iu years, due 10 Black Draught.” Thedford's Black Draught is purely vegetable, pleasant to take, and acts in a prompt and natural way. So many thousands of persons have been benefited by the use of BiackDraught, you should have no hesitnney in trying this valuable, old. wellestablished remedy, for many li-tfu. and stomach disorders.
