NO MEDDLINC IN
EUROPEAN WAR
President Says United States
Will Not Interfere in Fresh
Troubles
STAY ON JOB UNTIL
CONGRESS ENDS
BY JOHN EDWIN NEyIN,

United Press Stan Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, July 27-The
United States has no intention Of
meddling In European politics. Presi-
dent Wilson made that statement to
callers today. He stated that while
It would be distinctly unwise to dis
ouss European developments with
matters there at crisis, he saw no
reason to depart from the American
policy Of not attempting to interfere
in the affairs of Europe. While he
did not so state 1t was plain from
lis attitude that he believed the Mon
roe Doctrine, which prohibits Europe
interfering on this continent, would
hold equally good in keeping the
United States from participation in
affairs of the Eastern Hemisphere.
The attempt to use President VIII
son to assist in the smothering Of
the Rivers and Harbors bill found
no response today at the White
House. The President today blunt
ly stated that he had rot discussed
the measure with anyone "either
alive or dead" and that he had not
even read the bill.
If the Senate Committee on For
eign Relations has agreed to side
track all of the Bryan peace treaties
and the pending convocations with
Nicarauga and Colombia, It has not so
informed the President. The latter
told callers today that he had not
heard of any such plan and would
use all of his influence to get the
treaties acted on, II possible, at the
present session.
Interesting fiction" was the char
! acterization today which President
! Wilson applied to a story that he was
succumbing to the long drawn out
hot weather here and wanted to get
away to Cornish. He said that he
was standing the weather fine, hav-
! ing become used to II; that until
! Congress completes its labors he will
stay on the job, hot weather or no
hot weather.
President Wilson refused TO dis
cuss today the report that he is about
to withdraw Paul NJ Warburgs s
nomination for membership in the
Federal Reserve Board. Warbure
has not communicated with the
President direct.
The President said today that he
is going over the list to select a sue
cessor to Thomas D. Jones, with
drawn. and that he hopes to send the
nomination to the Senate very soon

the initiative today in an effort to avert
a war involving all Europe.
Although upon Kaiser Wilhelm, Of
Germany, rests the greatest responsi-
bility for peace, diplomats here today

poets of war are viewed was indicated
when King George cancelled his en-

Sir Edward Grey has communicated
with the British ambassadors in Paris,
Berlin and Robe, urging that they ap-
peal to these governments to aid in

lieved Austria would be forced to ac-

lieve is still possible, despites the
