PERMANENT PEACE
Washington, April 12.--That all Of the
Centlal American republics are look
ing to the present state of warfare be-
tween Nicaragua and Honduras to re-
suit in an agreement for permanent
peace IN Central American was devel-
oped today by q general discussion at
the state department with that end
In view the negotiations looking to a
| cessation Of hostiiltes Will not ge So
far as to take up the subject Of per-
| manent peace but will leave this broad
L question to n IL hall fr,
Washington or the City Of Mexico. and
II is expected all OF the countries I'M
| mediately Interested may take part.
The United States and Mexico ae-
cordins to the embryonic plans. will
occupy the important positions of um-
piTes.
The conflict between two OF the Cen
trail American republics which is now
drawing To q close has made 1t appar-
ent 20 all that the present unsettled
conditions there are haTnperfng the de-
velopment OF the countries. The vari-
| GUS republics not involved In the war
kept free with the greatest difficulty,
! and commercial affairs In all OF them
were affected With the United States
and Mexico urging the placing of tho
republics ON Il firm Basis SO that they
might dwell amicably together and en-
joy an Interchange of business, there is
every indication that permanent
agreement may be reached
The plan has not gone far enough for
the suggestion of date for such a
conference, but II IS assumed chat 1t
VIII not Interfere with the conference
at The Hague, although the two would
not be in conflict In any way. An,bas-
sodor Creel Is said TO be father oc the
idea, but IT has he hearty approval OF
state department officials,
In order that there might be fun at
tendance Of representative delegates
from all Of the Central American re-
publics, Mexico City, it Is believed
here, stands the better chance of sccur-
ing the conference. The Keen interest
taken by the diplomatic representa-
lives here OF all Central American re
publIcs and tho dependence they place
I'm SeCy. OF STATE Root and the Mex-
can ambassador is believed by officials
here TO insure the success Of sDeh
gathering as thar proposed.
