The American Association for Inicrna-

petition TO the House of Representatives
that the controversy between Great
Britain and the United States relative 10
the exemption Of American coasting ships

Canal be either rescinded or settled by
mutual agreement. or. failing either OF
these. by arbitration at The Hague. The
petition goes on
I'm the opinion Of this association the
suita bility of the question at issue for
submission to arbitration Is not open 10
DISPUTE. whether under the existing ar
filtration treaty with Great Britain ~
without any treaty. This association re-
ioices in the fact that the United States
has in the past led all the nations OF the
world in it's willingness to resort. TO ar
hitration as a means Of adjusting inter-
national controversies, even OF most
serious character.
.'The association cannot believe for one
moment that either the Congress or the

been taken in the case of the Graveses
turned their dependency 10 hope. Al
though the job that will give Graves and
his wife the support that they need is still
Ia be found. another offer was added yes
terday to the two that are already in

is the prospect of brighter times ahead
