MESSAGE TO SENATE

. (By Telegraph. Copyright, Telegraphic Messages Ordinance, 1894. Received, Jan. 17, 2.15 a.m.)

Washington, Jan. 16. President Roosevelt to-day delivered his message to the Senate urging American adherence to the World Court at the Hague.

Senator

Arkansas, Democratic Robinson of majority leader in the Senate, will introduce a Bill' implementing the President's announcement of policy. But it will not be unopposed.

Many of the Democrats will have something to say against the measure, fearing that American foreign relations will be injured if the United States takes sides in World Court disputes. Senator Robinson, however, is certain that his resolution will receive the necessary two-thirds majority.-United Press.

BRITISH OPPOSITION

Washington, Jan. 16. President Reosevelt's missage urging that the Senate, in the interests of pence, ahould ratify America's adherence to the Permanent Court of International Justice at the Hague, has brought down a slashing attack upon the World Court by the former Re- publican Senator, Mr. Johnson, who declares:

"We are to enter the Court, not for the benefit of America, but to meddle in the muddle, in hysterical internationalism which Europe has and will never be rid

of.
