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. Out of It grew
the principle of- Joint responsibility
for the maintenance of peace In the
waafjk-n t,mljnh,rnj
With these International conclaves
of American governments nas grown
the Pan-American Union, aa a per
manent headquarters for lnter-Am-rlcsn
affairs,
- From Its start as a eommerelal bu
reau It has broadened Its activities
to keep up with International de
velopments until It now handles the
agendas of the general Pun-American
conferences and of some of the
special gatherings.
For Peace Association.
' Already the governing board of the
union haa drafted the program for
the coming Peru conference, aftor
. consultation with the governments
which will attend.
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.

They discovered that America

who could give and take.
Today we still have our frontiers
... in commerce, industry, agri

to those who have inherited the
old-fashioned courage, vision a'nd
energy of our early pioneers. Other
nations listen enviously as America
continues to tell us, "There is op
portunity for all."
