THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, - SUNDAY MORNING, I.IAY 21, 1S22. - 4 BIG OPPDRTUfJITY AWAITS 01 IN ME-PERU ROW Uncle Sam Would Gain Much Prestige by Acting" Success fully in Thirty-Year Dispute. By Davie. Uwrnn (Copyrycht. 1922, y Th Joaraal) Washington. May .America' a re sourcefulness as a jnedlator is being taxft to the utmost In the unprecedented situation which baa led Chile andPem to endeavor to setU their dispute of more than 30 years' standing. ' Theoretically. Chile and Pern are ne gotiating dh-ectly. Th United States is merely offering Its '"atmosphere and rood will." but this lb" merely the pre liminary. 'Everybody knows and has known that the public opinion of Chile and Peru has been fanned Into such intensity of feeling iover the dispute that a direct settlement unassisted by the friendly advice of outside powers is improbable. Thw- deadlock is still the saipe as It .was. i,s, '.-,.. POWERS TIKED f' '"7"-" , Chile Insists that "the treaty of "Ancon is unfulfilled. Peru declares a refer endum should have been taken in 1894 to determine th ownership of the prov inces of Tacne and Arica. and since It wasn't taken the whole treaty is invalid. And so the controversy goes. There i no- new angle.- no new suggestion of equitable arrangement icoming from the one which would be approved by the8 other. The two powers are tired of the con stant controversy and want s! settlement. They have reached thetage where they would welcome some,, compromise from the outside offered la jsuch a way that neither side can afford! to reject. That's where America's , opportunity arises. Japan and China haggled for three years over, the Shantung question. DISPUTE SETTLED ' They started direct negotiations again and again, but never; got anywhere. Finally the United States and Great Britain conceived the idea of bringing the parties together f in Washinton, ostensibly for direct settlement, but In reality for mediation. The dispute was settled satisfactorily, i The same situation has developed be tween Chile and Peru The delegates are already trying dinect -negotiations and will soon reach the deadlock, of past conferences. Then America will step in either with a concrete plan, or a pro posal for ' arbitration, i which, if. ac cepted, would mean that both sides were committed in advance I to accept the award of the arbitration tribunal. ACTTOJT IMPORT ANT j American good faith, American fair ness and judicial ability -wtll be tested in the Chile-Peru conference. There is prestige and good raver waiting the United States if it settles the conflict satisfactorily to both aides. There is ill-will awaiting if America makes a misstep. The secretary of state of the United States happen to be a former justice of . the supreme court - of the United States. His Judicial mind is being ap plied to the dispute, which -is essentially a task for the legal mind anyhow. - , For years the Monroe doctrine. eon- Li ceived as a means of preventing Euro pean aggression in this hemisphere, has been' : so variously interWeted and de veloped that America's designs In Latin-' America have,Triot been vSewed as altru istic despite ft the protestations of her statesmen. " - POSITIOK MIStTHDERSTOOD Chile in patricular has. through dip lomatic channels, shown fc on more than one occasion a fear that the United States was adopting a big brother atti tude for selfish and not; unselfish rea sons. Peru has played ! a little more closely to American polity, but Chile's doubts are the .same doubts as other South American nations have expressed. The opportunity of thai United States hi the premises is to show that she is interested tn the peace and welfare of countries far distant from her own boundaries, and that she is willing to stop In the midst of its Intense absorp tion in other problems to lend ' a voice of counsel and equity In the settlement of a perplexing dispute which' has dis turbed not merely the relations of Chile and Peru but the equilibrium of the South American continent SEEKS OUTLET j Bolivia, for example, wants an outlet to the sea through the very : territory of Tacne and Arica, which are the. basis of the Chilean-Peruvian quarrel. Some diplomats aver It would be of more use to Bolivia than either Chile or Peru. There Is. some retasoh1 to believe that national pride is much more Involved In this matter than the intrinsic value of the provinces. ' w" T ' - r Incidentally there is a little national pride on the side o(4he Washington ad ministration, it wag this dispute which nearly -grot into the jurisdiction of the League . of Nations - and there Is con siderable doubt still over the willing ness of the Wilson administration to let league, dispose of the matter ana ine nTnwilllngneas of the Harding administra tion to let the European league inter vene in any American Questions lest a precedent for the future be established. OFPOBTTT5TTT ' FOE XT. 8. - Chile, and Peru are both members of the league. XX they settle their dispute here through , the good offices of .the United States the Washington govern ment will have established Its prestige as a mediator not only in a Far Eastern tangle, such ' as was Involved in the Shantung province, - but' In the healing of a sore In another part of the world, where, indeed, the interests of the United States are far nearer and of more deli cate concern. ' 1 - Ambassador Harvey Lauded by Editor of Spectator in London (Special Cable to The Josnul and the CMeaco IJailj Hvnt (CopmcbW l-2) London. May 20. J. St. Leo Strachey, Anti-Soviet Troops ' 'On 'Sofia's': Streets 'y Arouse Bulgarians editor of The Spectator, in a remarkable f editorial sums up the work of Ambas sador Harvey during his first year in his present post. Mr. Strachey eays that Colenei Harvey's achievement has been a clean diplomatic slate, leaving no. pending" negotiations between - the United States and Britain. He mentions the ambassador's services during the Washington conference in formally ex plaining to tie British government the intentions of the United States, a step which resulted in the "acknowledgment of relationship between the two English speaking countries containing an ele ment of intimate and permanent good feeling." Mr. Strachey also mentions Colonel Harvev's service in arranging agree ments concerning the rights of the United States under the Palestine mandate, which the editor says, will be a model for American rights- under all British mandates especially concerning VoiL He says that Ambassador - Harvey and the British foreign office have poured "cold water on the troubled oiL" The Times has printed- a similar esti mate of Colonel Harvey's work and it may be said that it represents the view generally held in Britain. . .
