Secretary of State Hughes told the American Society of International Law that joining the world court would not entangle the U.S. with the League of Nations. He argued the court is an independent body created by its own act, with no league supervision, addressing Borah and other critics. He asserted U.S. policy favors the court as an improvement in international justice and rejects entanglement fears.
