Senator Borah and World Court Debate
The court here becomes nothing but an attorney and subordinated to political power. Its opinions are merely taken for what they are worth, to be rejected by the arbitration committee or the council. People have confidence in Senator Borah though he omits key points. He notes the court’s jurisdiction would be voluntary but fails to specify exact changes needed. As a national figure and Senate Foreign Relations chair, he could draft concrete proposals for debate.

Capitol Needs Set West Virginia, Not Charleston Local Claim
