Clarke’s Attitude On World Court
Candidate Experiences Change Of Heart on Subject
Judge Robert M. Clarke, who is a candidate for United States senator against Senator Shortridge was, a year ago, standing on the Republican platform in its attitude toward the World Court. Today he is standing side by side with Hiram Johnson in direct opposition to the Republican platform, to the declarations of President Coolidge, and to the action of the Senate in voting to enter the court with reservations safeguarding the United States.
Here are extracts from two of his speeches:
"What I said was, in response to questions, that I felt that the policy of the United States, as expressed in the elections of 1920, was to the effect that the United States should not enter into the League of Nations without reservations.
"The World Court, in my opinion, presents another and different question. I am a firm believer in the establishment of a tribunal for the settlement of international questions, and I have no objection and would support the policy of the party, as declared by its platform, to adhere to the World Court subject to the so-called Harding-Hughes-Coolidge reservations.
"To restate my position, it is this: That I believe it would be the policy of our party and a large part of our citizens, to advocate and believe in adherence to the World Court and I offer no opposition to such action by our government."—(From letter by Judge Clark to J. Perry Wood, December 21, 1925.)
"The League Court, sometimes referred to as the 'World Court,' is legally known as the Permanent Court of International Justice. But recently the United States declared its adherence as the greatest actress of her time. McCollough engaged her for a tour of the United States, and she later went to England and Europe. On her return to this country she starred in Shakespearean productions and was everywhere acclaimed as the world's greatest tragedienne.
After her triumphs in this country and abroad she and the Count returned to Anaheim to visit with former friends. They purchased a ranch at Arden, in the Santiago canyon, and lived there many years. They also purchased a cottage at Balboa and lived there at the close of theatrical seasons.
Modjeska was a great woman and, despite the fact that she came to be one of the world's greatest stage artists, her old-time friends recall how she buckled down to work when adversity had come upon them, and did the washing and mental duties about the home. Certainly in her case it was the darkest hour before the dawn, for their money gone and failure staring them in the face, she resolved to go back upon the stage, and considered John McCollough as the only man between her and ruination. How she persevered in her interviews with him, after the imperious old tragelian had repeatedly turned her down has been already told.
She said later that was the darkest period of her life, with funds exhausted and seemingly no chance to get back upon the stage. But a change came with her interview with Barton Hill, and she electrified a great audience of player people at her tryout. It was seen that a new star was bursting into glory in the theatrical firmament, who, a few days before, was doing washing and mental service about the house. It was her greatest triumph. She was immediately proclaimed the greatest tragedienne before the public, and was engaged by McCollough for a tour of the United States. She later went to Europe, and the Russian government permitted her to reappear in Poland. She was one of the greatest women who ever lived.
Next story, appearing next week, Prof. Newton B. Pierce and his microscopes."
To restate my position, it is this: That I believe it would be the policy of our party and a large part of our citizens, to advocate and believe in adherence to the World Court and I offer no opposition to such action by our government."—(From letter by Judge Clark to J. Perry Wood, December 21, 1925.)
"The League Court, sometimes referred to as the 'World Court,' is legally known as the Permanent Court of International Justice. But recently the United States declared its adherence thereto with reservations.
"It was brought into being by the League of Nations and rests its authority for existence under the Treaty of Versailles and has been functioning at The Hague for three years or more. Despite the fact that this nation has repudiated the League of Nations and that California did so in 1920 by an unprecedented majority, we find our representatives in congress and the Senate voting to enter this League Court.
"The circuitous route thus pursued will, unless promptly rescinded, take us into the 'sideshow' of the League. We become -bound by its judgments and will be called upon to enforce such judgments by our man-power and our wealth. The vast majority of Americans, and the speaker is one, are opposed to the League and the League Court. The verdict of the people of California will be against the League Court and those who have sponsored and voted for it."—(From speech by Judge Clarke to Rotary Club of Torrance, July 8, 1926.)
The Republican platform, adopted at the convention which nominated Mr. Coolidge, declared:
"The Republican party reaffirms its stand for agreement among the nations to prevent war and preserve peace. As an immediate step in this direction we indorse the Permanent Court of International Justice and favor the adherence of the United States to this tribunal as recommended by President Coolidge. This government has definitely refused membership in the League of Nations and to assume any obligations under the covenant of the League. On this we stand."
The man who cannot subscribe to the Republican declaration of principles should not ask the Republicans to give him a senatorial seat.
Count Bozenta's Pears Attraction for Kids

Attraction for Kids
(Continued from Page One)
out a printing office, wash rollers, clean windows and do odd jobs, when early on the following morning Count Bozenta showed up in the office with our Stetson hat. He told the editor that some bad boys and others who were not boys had been in the habit of helping themselves to his pears, which he objected to. He said if they would come and ask him for some, he would be glad to give them aplenty, but he did not want them to come and climb into his tree without permission. He handed the editor our hat, saying it had been left behind in a stampede of some boys to get away from his pear tree. The editor handed our hat back to us and told us to stay away from that tree, which of course we did.
We met Count Bozenta and Madame Modjeska many times on the street in those days, and every time their sight was fastened on that Stetson. They seemingly said, there is the boy who got away with our pears.
After a number of years we became personally acquainted with them, but the pear tree episode was never brought up.
After their failure as farmers here, the party went to San Francisco, where the Count and his wife interviewed John McCollough. He turned a deaf ear to all their entreaties, and it was not until Modjeska spoke to Barton Hill that McCollough decided finally to give her a tryout. He selected the third act of Adrienne Lecouvrer, one of the most passionate of tragedies as her tryout, feeling entirely confident that she would fail. Modjeska appeared before the footlights the following afternoon, and many theatrical celebrities were present to see her play the part. Many others were not present who, although being invited, did not think the tryout was worth a visit.
As the Polish actress warmed up to her part word flew about the clubs and other parts of town frequented by players that the new Polish actress was making good in her difficult scene at the California theater. Everyone repaired thither, and soon the entire theatrical colony of the city was present and were enthralled by the wonderful exhibition given by the Polish tragedienne. She was warmly applauded at the finish, when it was seen that a new star had come into the theatrical firmament. She was instantly regarded

British Strike Boon To U.S. Producers
The British coal strike, now almost four months old, is bringing millions of unexpected dollars monthly into the coffers of American coal producers.
Coal export figures for June, which will be officially announced this week, will show that more than 2,000,000 tons of coal, mostly high volatile bituminous, has been sent to the British Isles, famous as the greatest coal producing and exporting region in the world. Exports to many other countries, formerly Britain's best customers, similarly register large purchases from the United States. United States, German and Polish coal producers are engaged in a race for Great Britain's place of supremacy in European and South American markets, commerce department officials declare.
Mussolini has issued an order forbidding the creation of more public jobs. So he isn't so much of a politician after all.

Immigrant Plant Pests
The board bill of introduced farm and fruit pests is more than a billion dollars a year. Two hours of every day's work on the farm or in the garden and orchard goes to feed these uninvited guests. They now include the more important pests of agriculture and forestry in this country.
Importations of plants and plant products before the establishment of inspection or safeguards were the means of entry of practically all these pests. The widening of world commerce to include vast areas formerly unexploited has enormously added to the risk. Leading European countries recognized this need some fifty years ago, and many of them now have restrictions more drastic than our own.
