CONFERENCE IDEAL OF 111 Preservation of Peace in Western Hemisphere Be comes Business' of All North and South America By Dr. L. B. Howe. Director Oenrl of th Pan-American Union. (Ouest Columnist for Preston Oro7 er.) WASHINGTON. Peace In the western hemisphere la the business of every government In North and South America. That principle waa confirmed a few weeka ago when Bolivia and Para guay decided to lubmlt their Chaco war to arbitration, after a century of intermittent fighting. Thu the oonlerence method of settling International disputes tri umphed again on this side of the Atlantic Even now the family of American governments Is preparing for another in the long line of Pen American conferences, this one to be held fn Lima, Peru, early In De cember, ' A glance at the record helps ex plain this comparative quiet on the American front despite the war clat ter elsewhere In the world. It reads almost UK "A Century of Progress." A little more than a century ago, in 1839, Simon Bolivar, . the Great Liberator, calllcd a conference of na tions which assembled In Panama. Although U. 8. dolegates arrived af ter the meeting adjourned, several Latin American representatives got together In time for a little friendly discussion. By 1889 the first Pan-American oonference met In Washington, D. O. It went so far aa to establish a com mercial bureau to foster trade rela tions between the American repun llca. Covers Many Fields, Sine that meeting half a century ago seven Pan-American conferences have dealt with an Increasing variety of aubjecta like commerce and II-w-nna. vwnmtminnMntii and trans portations; Intellectual and cultural relations; public neaitn ana welfare; arbitration, conciliation, and oodlflcatlon of International law to name a few Most important waa the Buenos Aires gathering In December, 1038, to consider wajfe of strengthening the peace machinery.

The program will cover economic questions, the political and civil rights of women, organization of peace, International law, intellectual oooperatlon and moral disarmament. Also likely to attract attention Is the proposal of the governments of Oolombla and t-e Dominican repub lic for the creation of an association of American .nationa with Incrensnd power to preserve the peace of the western hemisphere. One of the erltlclsms leveled at the conferences and at the Pan-American Union itself Is the lack of enforce ment weapons like the sancatlona sanctions which can be Invoked by the League of Nations. The union of course Is largely an .administrative body without political functions or opinions. The confer ences, on the other hand, hnve shown that they can aottle disputes with out the threat of force. injured Americans Quit Spanish War PARIS. Sept. 14.
