PROPOSE STANDING
 NATIONAL COMMITTEE
Plan Presented for Taking Practical
 Step Toward Universal Peace.

Mohonk Lake, N. Y, May 30.-A Clark, professor of political economy at Columbia university. and Sir George Paish, editor of the London Statist, Was read by Dr. Clark at the Lake Mohonk conference on international arbitration here yesterday. They had been asked to present a plan for talk ing one practical step in the direc- tion of universal peace"
 They proposed a standing commit tee of the powers.
 They raised the question whether conferences of foreign ministers or their representatives could be made d part of the regular procedure of gov ernments.
 Independently of Warfare.
 "The need for this,' they said, "exists independently of warfare. The nations have become interdepen- dent where formerly they sought to be self-contained, both politically and economically. They live by serving each other"
 The independence was most notice ahlc in the exchange of clothing and food, and capital "The failure of the monsoon in India raises the price of bread In England" they cited as example. And an earthquake or war always causes losses in very remote regions.
 Tt should be possible for standing committee to agree upon policies that,
 in time of peace, will promote the common welfare and create a strong bond of mutual friendliness."
 No Guarantee Against War.
 There might be no guarantee against war, but the step now called for was the creation of a mechanism by which the general interest of the whole of mankind shall be protected.
 The chief question which we need to bring before the next Hague con- ference," they said, "is how the gen. eral interest can best be conserved. A standing committee of the powers would be potent instrumentalty for conserving it. It should call its meet ings from time to time, whenever the general interest is affected by a con- ference between the powers. The function of such a committee would not be confined to averting war. The elaborate network of business rela- tions that tie the countries together will afford the interest to be immedi- ately and constantly guarded through periods of peace. as well as the su- rreme reason for averting war
