UNITED STATES AMBASSADOR

Believed Friendly Offices Of Uncle Sam
Alone Can Avert Q Breach
in Moroccan Meeting.

London, wednesday, Feb. IA
The Standards correspondent at Alge-
ciras telegraphed to his paper under
yesterdays date:
Il am in position to assert that
the final solution of the Moroccan
dispute will emanate from America.
| Ambassador Henry White is only
awaiting the right moment to submit
proposal which it is believed will
prove acceptable to both France and
Germany. 1 have Mr.. Whites auth
ority to state that successful out

Deny Crisis Has Been Reached.
Algeciras. Feb. 1S.-Delegates to
the conference on Moroccan affairs
decline to admit that affairs have
reached the crisis generally supposed
in European capitals. The reports
current in Europe of the gravity of
the situation are not borne out by
actual conditions existing here. The
negotiations upon questions of flnan-
cial and police regulation are con-
tinuing without interruption, but ap-
| parently have reached point on
| which neither France nor Germany
Will yield. This dlsinclinatlon to
| change position on either side has
! caused uneasiness and seems to point
to an eventual deadlock but the dele
gates have hope Of settlement as
| long as the negotiations continue.
Little Show of Settlement
Berlin, Feb, Ia Exchange OF Bug-
| gestions between this and other in
! terested governments regarding the
| Algeciras negotiations are still contln-
uing in desultory way. with really
| little expectation of settlement
! The positions taken by both France
ana Germany are seemingly unyield-
ing, France holding out firmly for the
| mandate in Morocco and Germany for
a combination administration by all of
the interested powers. Theposition OF
the foreign office here is that should
Germany now yield to the demands
| Of France, the efforts Of years would
be rendered fruitless and a long pc
riod of unrest in European affairs. It
Is believed would be the result, the
issue of which even the boldest minds
do not care to consider. The expect
| ed dissolution OF the Ageclras con-
ference, while not of itself a cause OF
bellgerent talk, will undoubtedly
| cause a revival of the long-standng
distrust between Germany and
France.
Roosevelt May Save Situation.
London, Feb. 13-The Statist deals
this week with the Algeciras confer
ence in a long leader. The article
predicts a failure to reach conclu-
sion satisfactory to France and. con-
sequently, continued uneasiness in the
commercial world while at the same
| time the writer believes that war will
not result The point OF the statlsts
conclusions Is that President Roose-
Welt alone can save the situation, "just
as he alone was able to bring about
peace between Russia and Japan"
The Statist, after dealing with the
| policing of Morocco. upholds the
right of France to demand that she
should be given power to maintain or
der and to maintain n police force.
The Statist does not believe. from
present Indications that Germany win
yield the point that country prefer
ring to humiliate France. with the re-
suit Of tying up for an indefinite pc
riod the immense sums OF money now
| held inactive in France.
"The small powers" says the artl-
Gle, "are afraid to meddle between
Germany and France, and England
cannot do anything that would seem
contrary either to the spirit or the let
ter of the Anglo French agreement.
Russia has too much to do at home.
and Austria-Hungary is too much dls-
tracted.
There remains, then. only the
United States. If the United States
is willing to undertaking the policing
OF Morocco everybody will hail with
joy her readiness to assume an un-
pleasant responsibility for the sake of
preserving the peace OF the world.
Nobody would attempt to dictate to
the United States, yet, everybody
knows that the United States Is inn
partial, and by undertaking the polc-
ing would not entangle herself IN
treaties, would not incur any danger
and would not impose upon herself
any gratuitous expense.
I'm return she would sweep away
the danger OF war between two great
European natlons--a war which
II It broke out, would In all probabIll-
ty spread and ultimately become
worldwide. We trust that for the
sake OF maintaining the worlds peace
the United States will in this case
willingly depart from Its settled poll
