COURT IS NOT LEAGUE'S PAWN. SAYS VAN NUTS Denies U. S. Entry Is ‘Back Door’ Admission to Geneva Ranks. Bp I'nit'd Press WASHINGTON. Jan. 24—Opponents of the World Court today fought back against efforts of Administration leaders to press the issue to an early vote. Senator Hiram W. Johnson <R., Cal.>, declaring American ‘‘internationalists'' were wavering in their sponsorship of the court, said he thought the vote should be delayed until npxt week. Administration Leader Joseph T. Robin-son planned to seek an agreement today for a vote tomorrow or Saturday. If unable to accomplish that he intended to set a definite time for a vote early next week. Senator Frederick Van Nuys <D., Ind.), yesterday defended the court In a statement denying court participation meant a “back door' entrance to the League of Nation. “It does not mean the assumption of any legal liability whatsoever to the League,’* he said. “The United States does not agree to confer upon the court any jurisdiction over disputes to which the United States may be a party. Our adherence would not bind the United States to make any use of the court or go before the court at the instance of any other state.” Regarding advisory opinions, which were attacked by Senator William E. Borah <R., Idaho), as putting the court under the political j influence of the league and color- i ing its decisions with nationalistic | prejudices, Senator Van Nuys said: j “All we have tc do is to object; fend the court can not entertain jurisdiction of the question upon which an advisory opinion is sought. With this safeguard, we may enjoy all thp benefits of the court and not be subjected to the alleged possibility of advisory opinions founded upon political and racial prejudices. ’ LOCAL SUSPECT FACES MURDER TRIAL FEB. 1 William Hitchcock Accused of Slaying Hotel Owner.

AUTO PROVES NO MATCH FOR INTERURBAN: DRIVER BADLY HURT

A H -mam a— Wi r • Jpg j| —-■ - •- ~

Patrolman Charles Icenogle

Proof that an automobile is no match for a trolley in fair combat is given by this view of the machine of Mitchell Burgess, 247 N. Randolph-st, which struck an outbround Indiana Rairroad interurban car at Oliver-av and Harding-st yesterday afternoon. Patrolmen Charles Icenogle and Patrick Moriarity were among the police who investigated and sent Mr. Burgess to City Hospital. Mr. Burgess, who suffered severe head injuries, was described as being in serious cond tion this morning.

U. S. Isolation Urged in Book Rapping Diplomats Drew Pearson and Constantine Brown Review Last 16 Years of Efforts to Bring Peace. "War in Europe may come in any number of ways now. It may come almost immediately. It may not come for five years. But when it does come to Europe it will come also to the Far East. War will come.” a a a With that paragraph in their newly published book, “The American Diplomatic Carre” (Doubleday, Doran; $3), Drew Pearson and Constantine Brown sum up the last 16 years’ efforts for disarmament and peace. Mr. Pearson, co-author of the “Daily Merry-Go-Round,” one of The Indianapolis Times’ most popular features, has teamed up with Mr.

Brown, foreign news editor of the Washington Star, in writing a powerful argument for complete American isolation. “The American Diplomatic Game” has landed in Washington like a bombshell. It spares few of America’s so-called “statesmen” and deftly paints the United States as the pawn of European diplomats. Roosevelt Reverses Stand A highly irreverent tale of American diplomacy and American diplomats. the book discloses that Franklin Roosevelt, like his predecessors in office, Wilson, Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, toyed with the idea—presented by Premier Ramsey MacDonald of Great Britain—cf tackling the role of world savior, the leader to save the world from war, and even took several steps in that direction. But Franklin Roosevelt, the authors write, has turned in the other direction. They declare his three chief foreign policies to be: 1. The building of a giant navy. 2. An attitude of almost bitter coldness toward Japan. 3. With the exception of LatinAmerica, a position of complete isolation in regard to the rest of the world. Adopts British Policy Mr. Pearson and Mr. Brown see the President as the keenest student of naval strategy ever to sit in the White House, a man who believes the United States exists through the strength of its fleet. The authors see him as having adopted the identical policy toward Britain and Japan as Britain has adopted toward the United States and Japan in the past. British policy, they write, has been to play the two great powers of the Pacific off against each other. Mr. Roosevelt, they say, has decided to give the British a taste of their own policy. Henceforth, they believe, he will let the Britons act as their own bulwark against yellow imperialism. “The American Diplomatic Game” is a racy, able and worth-while book for miltarists and pacifists alike. It, at least, tears the veil from America s almost constant diplomatic bungling. If the reader is at all interested in foreign affairs as they affect the United States, he will enjoy this volume.

MOTOR CLUBS ASK S3 FEE FOR CARS Measure to Be Offered in State Senate. Reduction of automobile license fees to a flat rate of $3 a year for all types of cars is provided in one of three bills proposed by motor clubs of Indiana and ready for introduction into the Indiana Senate. A second bill would repeal the law creating a state oil inspection department while a third bill would amend the drivers’ license law to provide that the licenses would be good for a four-year term without increase in cost. Twenty-seven jobs would be abolished by repeal of the oil inspection law. Annual revenue of the department approximates $400,000 and the revenue goes into the general fund. Revenues would decrease approximately $2,000,000 under the flat auto license fee. Licenses now cost between $5 and $lO. Similar bills are pending in the House of Representatives.

Accord Reached on Bill by Beauty Shop Groups Agreement on Compromise Is Announced After Stormy Hearing Before Committee in Senate Chamber. Hundreds of beauty operators and beauty shop owners thronged the Senate chamber last night at a public hearing, conducted before the Senate Committee on Public Health, in which rival groups argued the merits of two similar bills for the licensing and regulation of beauty shops and operators. In a deliberation lasting until midnight, al differences were Ironed out. A compromise measure will be introduced in the Senate the first of next week.

Committee members, slightly bewildered by the technicalities of the craft and by the vague differences in the measures, decided after the hearing to scrap both bills and draft anew one embodying the bert features of each. Leaders of the factions w r ere instructed to meet with Senator AJanson L. Albright (D., Cayuga) and George Sands (D., South Bend), sponsors of the bills, and adjust their differences. “You ladies will have to get together on this matter,” warned Senator Jesse E. Wade (D., Mt. Vernon). Both groups agreed to arbitrate. Senator Sands and Senator Albright were named conciliators and met with group leaders and their attorneys. Representatives of organized labor favorer passage of the Sands’ bill.

COST OF LIVING UP 11 PER CENT, NRA DISCLOSES Food Prices Out in Front: Rents and Clothing Stationary. Bp Ini ted Press WASHINGTON, Jan. 24—The cost of living has increased 11 per cent under the Blue Eagle, statistics complied by the NRA research and planning division revealed today. The advance is in line with the Administration’s plan for increased prices and represents a steady climb since the NRA became effective in April. 1933. Approximately 90 per cent of the increase is attributed to a sharp rise in food costs. Rents and clothing have shown no advance during the past six months, but fuel and light costs have increased slightly. Pork has been among the leaders in the advance cost of foods, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics reported. Prices are about 35 per cent higher than a year ago and may rise another 10 to 15 per cent before summer, the bureau estimated.
