BRYAN GIVES OUT
PEACE PROPOSAL
(Continued From Flrst pngeD

CONTINUED From First Pagel
States agree severally 10 the Wilson
universal peace proposition. yet any
ruse go ahead with Its armament.
Fog instance. Italy might agree 10 the
plan, but by conspiring with Russia.
for instance, make a private arrange
ment by which she would be threat
ened by Austria. Italy's purpose
might be to Increase her armament
against France, and there would be
nothing TO prevent this simple d!plo-
matte trick. Notwithstanding the seem
insly solemn agreement with the
United Statcs's panacea for the peace
of the world.
The two first propositions OF the
Wilson peace plan have been printed.
They refer TO the appointment OF an
international commission OF I'VE as q
Anal informed ary and proposition to
limit the time for cooling off, TO one
year, more or less, accordingly as
the various nations are mercurial or
phleGmatic.
The peace proposals have been sent
TO all of the thi-ty-nine nations.
twenty OF winch have agreed TO them
in principle.
The startling third proposition is as
follows:
This government is prepared TO
consider the question Of maintaining
the status quo as to military ana
naval preparation during tho period OF
investigation. II the contracting ma
tions desire to ircllde this, and this
government suggests tentatively THAI
the parties agree that there shall be
no change In the military and naval
program during the period OF inves-
tiEation, unless 0anger m one Of the
contracting parties from third
power compels change in said pro-
gram. in which case the party feel
ing itself .nenaced by third power
shall contidcntially communicate the
matter in writing to the other con-
tracing party. and II shall thercupon
be released from the obligation not
to change Its military or naval pro-
gram End this release will at the
same time operate as release for
the other contracting party.
This protects each party from the
other In ordinary cases, and yet pro-
vides freedom OF action In emergen-
cies. All OF these suggestions. how
ever, are presented for consideration.
and not with the intention of impos-
ing any fixed conditions. The prin-
ciple Of Investigation being accepted,
the details are matters for conference
and consideration"

The object OF this conference Is to

The amendment offered by Sena tor
Newiands is said to be satisfactory to
both sides. The union men claim. how

lation will not aid the present situa-
ton.
Sincerity Attacked.
A Joint statement was issued by Car
rctson and Lee attacking the sincerity
of tho statements issued by the rail-
roads. 1t follows in part:
AT a timc like this. when public
opinion is sitting in Judgment upon
the merits of a contention between the
railway companies and their employees,
II might b. well TO contrast which Of
