MEASURE OF PRESERVATION
United States Asked to Cooperate in
Move to Safeguard and Restore
Trade of Pan-American Countries
Disturbed by Conflict in Europe.

WASHINGTON, November 2G.--The
United States government has been
asked by the principal South American
nations to cooperate with them in
negotiations with European bclliger-
ents to bring about tho exclusion of
all belligerent warships from the wa
tiers OF hte two Americas and safeguard
the TRADE Of Pan-American countries
with each other
& Argentina, Chile, Peru and Uruguay
have laid their suggestions before the
Washington government, while the
Brazilian government is considering
taking a similar step. Virtually all
the Central and South American
countries have been circularized by
some Of the principal nations, result
ing In Series of diplomatic confer
ences in Washington and the capitals
of South America, which arc now in
progress.
While the proposals are different in
character and scope they all seek the
same end--the restoration OF the trade
between North and South America,
paralyzed by the European war. The
movement has also for Its object the
removal of possible cases of serious
friction between the countries of this
hemisphere and the European bellig-
erents on questions of neutrality.
ALREADY HAVE HAD
SERIOUS DIFFICULTIES
Already Chile. Ecuador and Colom-
bia have had serious difficulties with
the belligerents over the use of wire
less and the conling of foreign war
ships. whose presence in the Atlantic
and Pacific is growing obnoxious to
South American countries.
None of the nations which have made
suggestions is committed to any par
ticular plan. but all seek cooperation
by the United States. The impetus
that will make any plans effective, II
Is recognized rests with President
Wilson.
The various plans thus far formally
communicated to the United States are
as follows:
6ne-The establishment of neutral
zones on the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts on North and South America.
within which the belligercnts shall be
asked to agree not TO engage In hos
tilities.
Two-The convocation Of general
conference OF diplomatic representa-
tiyes and commercial delegates of all
American countries with powers to
vote on steps which can be taken to
protect and restore Pan-American
trade.
Three-Thc appointment by the Pun

recommend steps that would remove
dangers to Pan American trade.
