FOR
NICARAGUA PLAN
Of NEW COMP ACT
Proposed Treaty Submitted
to Foreign Relations Com
nittee by Bryan Guar
antees independence

WASHINGTON, July 2s.-Important
notifications are to be made in the
proposed treaty with Nicaragua, by
which the United States would estab-
lish protectorate over the southern
republic.
1t has been discovered that by the
terms of the agreement originally out
lined by Secretary Bryan, Nicaragua
joining with other republics to form
q single Central America.
This was not contemplated by the
administration when the treaty was
first proposed. and the suggestion has
created suspicion among other Central
American countries. At a conference
today between Secretary Bryan and
members of the senate foreign rela-
tions committee, 1t was agreed that the
original draft should be changed, and
definite statements be included in the
compact, providing that 1t should not
stand in the way OF any future action
Nicaragua might decide to take
toward Joining Central American
combination.
SITUATION PECULIAR ONE
Secretary Bryan assured the commit
tee that the government was making
no direct proposals to other Central
American countries for similar treaties.
The Nicaraguan situation was Pc
culiar, he said. because that country
proposed the negotiations, and asked
for the establishment of an American
protectorate. In the case OF other coun-
tries the United States Is holding
itself OPEN to treat with them, II the
suggestions come from their govern
ments. The United States will not
adopt IN aggressive attitude, Secretary
Bryan said, in attempting to negotiate
anv additional treaties.
Among other things the treaty would
stipulate:
THAT Nicaragua shall never enter
into anv treaty or other compact with
any foreign power or powers which
will impair or tend to impair its inde-
pendence."
Another section would provide:
RIGHT OF INTERVENTION
THAT the government of Nicaragua
consents that the United States may
exercise the right to intervene for the
preservation of Nicaraguan independ-
ence."
The United States has no intention
of preventing Central American
union. 1t is understood. and will modify
the rigid language Of the proposed
treaty, to make this clear.
