WASHINGTON, Dec. 21. l- -Only
the reply of Bolivia Is needed
to set the committee named lo help
tho Molivian r'araguayan tiuariel to

tlonnaire ftom the com mi Uee was
received last nf-Uit.
Tho commit tee. named by tin
Pan-American conference on concil
iation nnd arbitration, fell thai, the
iiuestfonnalre was comparatively
easy to answer und some uneasi
ness was expressed when the twi
counlties were seemingly slow fa
answering. Paraguay's message, al
layed some of this concern and
Dlez de Medina, Bolivian minister,
has said that he expects to Iuar
frotn his Kovermncnl soon.
Tho Paraguayan note was not
made public but the legation here
said Its terms were favorable to
conciliation und peace. The ques
tionnaire hud asked both govern
ments to defluo the controversy
and to state tholr preferences as
to tho constUutinn of a concilia
tion tribunal.
The Hollvlu-PuruKuayan conier
encn 1ms claimed much of the in
tention of the conference whieh
