wlinn by the Washington police
ot cases of dlplomatle liquor
consigned to the Siamese legation.
Immediately after selxure and
the dellrery of the consignment
to the legation By the police them
selres, the situation was one of
discussion- only among the mem
bers of the diplomatic corps.
With the announcement today,
howerer, that Secretary Kellogg
had decided to lnrestlgate the
case, the possible ramifications of
the whole Question filtered at
once In to the treasury depart
ment, and the department of jus
tice and resulted elsewhere la a
number of unofficial opinions.
interest in the case was different
la each of the affected depart
ments. The department of state de
clined to comment or eren specu
late on the matter. Some offi
cials expressed the opinion that
the department regarded the sit
uation as one of the most embar
rassing tt has been called upon to
face in a long time.
At the treasury. Secretary Mel
lon aaid the transportation of li
quor for the embassy did not come
within the scope of the law be
cause It was an act within the
rights of the embassies and not
Illegal In any way.
A search of decisions of attorney-generals
disclosed an opinion
by former Attorney-General A.
Mitchell Palmer, to the then sec
retary of state, Robert Lansing, In
which he said:
"It Is unlawful to cause intoxi
cating liquors to be transported
from Baltimore, for Instance, to
Washington. X apprehend that
one could not successfully defend
against an indictment for such
transportation by showing that
the liquors transported were the
good, sand chattels of a foreign
diplomatic representative.
It Is understood that Secretary
Kellogg - may ask an opinion of
the department ot Justice in the
present case to determine Just
what the diplomatic missions
must do to hare their liquors le
gally transported to their homes
from any port of entry such as
Baltimore.

GENEVA, Mar. 19. (AP)
The first great step for the en
trance of the United States to the
world court ot justice has been
taken. The commission ot eminent
International Jurists' has unan
imously accepted the -fundamental
ideas of the formula of Ellhu Root
for acceptance of the American
conditions for mombreship.
Other Important steps remain.
The American senate must ratify
what the veteran American states
man has dona at Gensva. More
than that the more than 40 states
which now belong to the court,
must set their seals of approval on
today's agreement before Ameri
can adhesion can become an ac
complished fact.
League officials tonight seemed
convinced that there will be no
difficulty about the American sen
ate because the text of the agree
ment was cabled to Washington,
and Mr. Root himself was believed
to hare given his final approval
only when he had received advices
from Washington that the text
was agreeable to the government
The officials did not seem' to
sanguine as to the 40 other states.
They pointed out that there is al
ways a possibility that some state
may make a rebel aganlst the Am
erican conditions as according to
privileged position to the United
States.
