' (Continued from Pag On.)
greas, and much of the information conv
tnunlcated to th president today was
gathered by Miss Addaraa and her com
panions. Dr. Jordan took th position that It
would be more natural for th European
neutrals to invite th United State to
participate In th peace conference than
for the United State to issue the invita
tion. He said that an unofficial meeting
of peao advocates at Bern December 14,
at which plan for bringing about peao
will be discussed, would b attended by
people from th United States.
Volaotarr Ceert of Mediation.
Th Idea of'th quasi-official peace
conference suggested to President Wilson
on behalf of th International Peace con
gres by Dr. Jordan was that It would
constitute a voluntary court of continu
ous mediation, would invlt suggestions
for settlement from eacrj of the warring
nations, and In any case would submit
simultaneously to all of them reasonable
proposals as a basl for peace.
Dr. Jordan did not reveal what Presi
dent Wilson said to him, but the president
several times has taken th position that
he will bo gl ad te do anything of a prac
tical nature to end th war. Dr. Jordan
refused to predict whether the peace et
furts would b successful in the near fu
ture. ,
Dr. Jordan told th president' peace ad
vocates constantly were In touch with
people In th warring countries and that
there were organisations actively at work
In all parts of the civilised world bring.
In to bear to end the ear. Ultimately,
ho said. tWe effort were certain to be
successful.
Th Christmas season Is th natural
tlm to talk peace, Di. Jordan declared,
and. therefore, he is expecting th plans
of the peace advocaUa to tak definite
form about that time.
