De Smit that when the Lusitania

Conference of Central and South Amer
p lean Representative Resumes Today,

New York. Aug. 10.-With the reas.
sembAfng here tomorrow of the ambas-
sadors and ministers of six Central
ana South American governments and
the secretary Of state of the United
states, a definite inter-American effort
VIII be put into operation to re-estab-
nsh peace in Mexico by friendly means
and 20 restore the reVolution-to torn
country to its accustomed place in the
American family of nations.
The conference will be concerned
with final details Of the first step in q
plan the important features of which
Were unanimously agreed upon last
week by the ambassadors from Brazil.
Chile and Argentina and the ministers
from Bolivia, Guatemala and Uruguay
and Secretary Lansing.
First and foremost, the plan con-
templates a supreme appeal to the
consciences of the Mexican leaders OF
all factions and political groups. It
has been prepared and, after minor
changes in phraseology are discussed
tomorrow. probably will be despatched
weeks-being allowed for answers to
be received
The appeal will be brief, politely
phrased, and transmitted in Spanish
as originally written by one Of the
diplomats. 1t will show clearly that
the several governments whose anbas-
sadors and ministers, along with the
secretary Of state. sign II, have no
purpose to interfere in the. strictly in
ternal affairs of Mexico, to impair her
sovereignty or to show preference for
one leader as against another
