NAOk is CONFIDENT

Buffalo, n. Y, June 20.-'I was
never more confident than lam to-
day OF the ultimate success of media
tlon," said DR.. Romulo S. Naon, min
lister from Argentina when he arriy-
ed here at 1890 o'clock today, after
conferences In Washington with
President Wilson and Secretary Bry-
an.
Minister Naon predicted that ne
EQUATIONS would be continued at
least another two weeks.
Il am confident Minister Naon
added, "and optimistic, which I have
always been. While | regard the diff
ficulties which have been encountered
as serious, there are always difficult
ties in mediation, and it is the duty
of mediators to find a way to over
come them so peace may be accom-
plished."
AS the minister took an automo-
bile to a hotel fer luncheon pricr to
returning to Niagara Falls, he said
he would consult with his colleagues
tonight before making an announce
ment, and that there probably would
be no full session Of the delegates
and mediators until Monday. DR..
Naon declined to say what proposals
he had in mind which would break
the deadlock in the mediation, but
1t was apparent that he had found
President Wilson and Secretary Bry-
an anxious fer cne thing-the pacif-
cation of MeXicO-and ready to listen
to frirthdr compromises or sugg{,-
tions out Of which solution might
be found.

of the American and Huerta dele
gates admittedly has cast shadow
OF doubt eyer the indgotiations In
that each side finds it difficult to he
cede from a publicly announced atti-
tude. But there is strong proba-
bility, In the opinion Of DIR. Naon,

types an individuals and going
ahead On the other important points
in the peace plan a man may be
found in the interim who would

that the answer will be in conflict

the trustee. This will form the is

1t is expected that as soon as the
answer reaches Judge Grubb, with
whom the original petition was filed
that he will fix a date for a hearing
at which time the matter will be fin
ally fought out and it will then be
determined whether the receivers or
the trustee is to have control of the

WAIT FOR THE TRUTH.

II is gratifying TO learn that DR..
Henry Van IKE, minister to the
Netherlands. has forwarded to the de-
partment Of state comprehensive re-
port upon the atrocities alleged to
have been committed by the Germans
in Belgium. The report may not be
made public Immediately. but when
IT is the western world is likely to
know the truth.
We are sadly in need of the truth
concerning the allegations of inhuman
conduct against the Germans. They
have been repeated and insisted upon
with such persistency that an impress
sion has been made on the American
mind. Whether true or false it is
there and unavoidably it has created
prejudice against the Germans which
nothing short OF an official statement
from such an unbiased and intelligent
person as Minister Van Dyke can re-
move.
Americans have been reluctant to
believe the stories or German brutality
told by newspaper correspondents and
refugees. They have not believed
Germans, whether soldiers or civilians,
capable of the atrocities and outrages.
reported, even in the present state of
mind. surrounded by enemies and
their country infested by spies and
conspirators. They are not ready to
believe that the German character has
so degenerated that the reign of bar
barism are likely to be restored
Germany has done too much for civ
ilization TO become in a moment an
exponent of savagery. The world is
too much indebted TO Germany TO ac-
cept without proof statements THAI
even in isolated instances and under
great stress OF circumstances German
soldiers have violated the laws of hui
mainly and decency. Minister Van
Dykes report will give US the true
story, uncolored, unbiased and without
apology. and until we have that or
some equally trustworthy Information
we should retain our faith in German
human nature.

THE SHIP QUESTION.

The objections of the French,
British and Russian governments TO
the purchase by this government of
German ships marooned in Amer
lean harbors are weighty, not so
much from their point OF view, as
from our own. Ii is argued that our
purchase of them would result in the
establishment in this country of a
large German credit and SO would be
equivalent to a loan to Germany.
With that phase of the question il is
not necessary now to deal. Nor is IL
the most important one. since il is adj
mitted that there would be no objec-
ton TO our purchase Of German ships
if we were also to buy ships from the
other belligerents. Broadly speaking,
we should think that the allied pow
ers would be glad TO have us pur-
chase from Germany for that would
mean that the ships would be perma-
nently lost TO that power. If not pur-
chased they will be available for use
by the Germans at the close of the
war.
our government might we'll ask
whether these ships would be mt for
the use that il is intended TO make
of them. Many are large passenger
vessels extremely costly TO operate.
OF course their cargo capacity is con-
siderable. but they were not designed
as freighters Certainly we should
not construct such ships i we were
going into the business of creating a
merchant marine in the broad sense
of the term The investment there
fore. seems TO be one of doubtful
value.
The question IS further compli-
Gated by the limitations which the
government would have TO observe.
The directing powers were informed
traband OF war. But there are many
articles that are contraband, and
others-such as foodstuffs-that are
conditiOnally cOntraband If we re-
Trained from carrying these. we
should not only lose heavily on the
operation OF the vessels. but be able
TO do little toward relieving the pres
sure for ocean carriage The belliger-
ent powers would have the right to
declare wheat cOntraband, as they
have already declared il cOnditionally
