ed to annex Liberia, or at least extend
friendly protectorate over II.

sons interested in the missionary move

great cause OF war. wants this coun-
try to intercede with other nations TO
secure their promise not to attempt

struct the representatives OF the
United States In the next international
peace conference to express to the
conference the desire Of the United
States that the nations represented In
the conference shall not attempt to
Increase their territory by conquest.
and TO endeavor to secure n declara-
ton TO that effect from the conference.
The resolution was referred to The

over until next winter. when Il will
doubtless be presented to the House.
