TO PREPARE FOR PEACE CONGRESS Colonel House Undertakes Un usual Task at Request of President Wilson. DOES HOT AIM TO END WAR Work la to Equip Government With Data That Will Ba Important Whan the Hoatllitlca Como to a Close. New York.—Col. E. M. Bouse, who waa asked by President Wilson to un dertake the task of preparing data for the use of the United States when the warring nations gather about the con ference table to discuss peace terms, has entered actively upon the perform ance of hid unusual duties. His first move was to select Dr. John H. Finley, commissioner of education of the state of New York, as his chief assistant. Doctor Finley will bring to the work all the Information which he gathered on a recent trip to Europe, where he made an extensive study of conditions. Emphasis Is laid upon the fact that the appointment of the president's In timate friend and counselor to this po sition Is not Indicative of any move for peace at this time but Is merely pre paratory to the peace conference which must come Inevitably at some time In the future. The selection of Doctor Finley Is In dicative of the sort of experts with whom Colonel House will confer. No man or woman with a preconceived opinion which might tempt one to color circumstances so as to prove the cor rectness of a personal point of view will be permitted to participate In a work where open-mindedness Is a pre requisite to the arrival at conclusions that will enable the government to de termine upon a correct policy. Emphasis Is put upon the unalter able determination that neither pro fessional pacifists nor confirmed mili tarists can be In the slightest degree useful In preparing statistics for gov ernmental guidance, which must be without taint of bias. In an Interview Colonel Honsemade It plain that his appointment, does not Indicate any thought of Immediate peace Is now being entertained by the United States government. He agrees with Lord Northcllffe In his message delivered before the American Bank ers’ association In Atlantic City that peace seems far oft and America should beware the trickery and treach ery of such propaganda. The truth Is that this effort on the part of the United States to analyze war condi tions and evolve a plan of proceedure when hostilities end Is a belated one, ]ust as our military preparations lagged for a period. But now It Is “full steam ahead and damn the tor pedoes” with our army and navy with not a thought of let-up In mind, so from now on there will be urgent prosecution of search for material, his torical and Informative, concerning the ] world war. This quest of data will keep pace with an energetic prosecu tion of the contest, but will not halt It In any way. To pause now In any phase of belligerent endeavor might make the prospect of peace even more remote than It seems at present. No Sign of Early Peace. The government sees nothing what ever to Indicate the early approach of peace, nor will Colonel House have anything to do with ascertaining the point of view of either the Entente belligerents or the central powers, or possible terms upon the basis of which they might be willing to enter Into ne gotiations. He will remain In the Unit ed States. It la possible that the state department will be able to afford him aid In the work he has undertaken, but he will not work with the depart ment nor In a diplomatic capacity, for mal or Informal. He will have no title and will receive no salary. The appointment of Colonel House affords another Illustration of the ex panding position of the United States In world affairs. Heretofore the state department has been equipped with virtually all the Information that was necessary to the solution of Interna tional problems In which the United States has taken a direct Interest. The war has brought new problems and projected this country Into a field of International activity which It has sel dom entered before. The questions which will come be fore the peace conference at the end of the war will be multitudinous. The freedom of the seas, the neutralization of seaways, the political homeogenelty of peoples who claim the right of self government and the disposition of ter ritorial possessions Involving economic, historical and political questions, will be some of the many subjects to be considered, and the Information upon which conclusions may be based and policies decided must be at hand. With exclusive European problems. TOLD IN A PARAGRAPH When he was between thirty-two and thirty-six. Whitman wrote Leaves of Grass. Plana are being made to clear vast tracts of land In the Straits Settle ments for the production of bananas. Experiments are to be made at Hon olulu, Hawaii, with the liber of banana stalks In the manufacture of bags for shipping sugar. The necessary machin ery was brought from the United THB CHEYENNE RECORD. tt la not expected that the representa tives of the United States at the peace council will be concerned. But In the disposition of general questions, relat ing to economic Intercourse and po litical development which will affect virtually all the nations of the world, the United States will have a potent voice. In accordance with the policy that has been consistently followed since the outbreak of the war of hold ing aloof from European combinations except In the prosecution of the war, this government probably will not at tempt to aid In the settlement of tradi tional Euorpean quarrels, except pos sibly as a matter of friendly Interest If opportunity arises. House Likely to Be Delegate. It was said unofficially that when the time comes to organize a peace conference. Colonel House, by virtue of his present assignment, would In all probability be' selected as one of the delegates from the United States. It will be a part of Colonel House’s task to gather Intelligence relating to commercial, economic and political sit uations abroad. He will keep abreast of developments In all non-mllltary af fairs. Colonel House will have associated with him, as has been stated, several experts, probably college professors, economists and specialists in commer cial and financial affairs. The work he is to perform will not be connected with similar undertakings in any of the countries with which the United States Is associated In the war. The United States government Isn’t getting ready to enter Into peace ne gotiations with Germany, Isn’t going to meddle In strictly European ques tions relating to the war, and Isn’t ne gotiating Just yet on the problems of peace with the Entente, as has fre quently been surmised. Must Have Data In Advance. It Is Important for the United States government now and will be even more Important later on to have a so called “who’s who and what’s what” In the war In order that all phases In volved may be properly understood by reference to data compiled In advance. In time of war the government that falla to prepare for peace will ulti mately be at a disadvantage, says the Philadelphia Public Ledger an edi torial. The representatives of Great Britain, Austria, Russia and Prussia, found this out after the fall of Na poleon when they met Prince Talley rand at Vienna. Talleyrand, sent by France, had learned enough of the sit uation as It concerned all of the small er European powers and as It con cerned much of the opinion of Europe to turn the tables upon the four great powers and to stand as the champion of the public rights of Europe. Prince Talleyrand maneuvered, and successfully, according to the rules of a secret diplomacy. He really worked In behalf of selfish and na tionalistic Interests. The partitioning of Europe by the congress of Vienna was the outcome of arbitrary compro mise; It was prolific of future wars. The knowledge which the great dip lomatic exponent of France displayed was more comprehensive than that of his foes, that Is all. Excepting that he recognises the need of precise In formation, President Wilson acts up on a principle different from that which guided Talleyrand. He will urge this nation Into no alliance, even with the nations with whom It Is as sociated In the common war against the Teutonic powers. He proposes simply to equip himself with knowl edge pertinent to the rights of all na tions In common with America as they may be concerned by the proceedings of the peace conference. To Bhow War Alms. In this spirit the president hts asked Colonel House to survey the field of military, naval and political conditions In the countries of our en emies and our friends; to get at the economic, political and emotional state of things In every country, and to tell frankly to Great Britain, Russia, France, Italy and the neutral powers the things that we are doing and that we Intend to do In the war. More over, an attempt will be made to lift the heavy curtain of censorship In Germany and Austria-Hungary, In or der to spread among their peoples a comprehension of American war alms and potentialities. Officials are anxious that no Impres sion should be created, as a result of Colonel House’s appointment, of any Intention to start peace negotiations In the near future. So far as the at titude of the United States Is con cerned, the president’s reply to the pope still remains the unaltered view of the government here. The appointment of Colonel House Is recognition by the government of the fact that the adjustment of peace terms will be a very complicated pro ceeding. Many points of dispute must be settled. Questions of all sorts, economic, political, and historical, will come up for discussion, and the Amer ican delegates must be forearmed with a mass of Information and statistical data to meet every situation. No data concerning present condi tions In Germany or Austria will come within the scope of Colonel House’s work, as this would come under “mil itary Information."
