NEUTRALS WORKING
ON PEACE PLAN
EXPECT TO HAVE MEETING TO
FORMULATE PROPOSALS
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
Believed That the Administration OF
Foreign Policies of Nations at
War Would Welcome Action
of Neutral Agency.

Washington.--David Starr Jordan,
chancellor OF the Leland Stanford uni

Peace congress. recently held in San
Francisco, told President Wilson on
Friday that a quasi-official meeting
of neutral nations probably will be
held some time before Christmas,
either at The Hague, Berne or Copen-
hagen, to attempt to bring about
peace in Europe.
DR.. Jordan conveyed to the presi-
dent a resolution from the peace con-
gress urging him to cooperate with
other ntutrals In calling such con-
ference.
In statement laid before the pres
ident by DR.. Jordan, it was declared
that as result of recent missions to
the governments Of the warning ma
tions it could be stated that while
the nations at war were not willing
themselves to begin negotiations for
peace, there is nevertheless abund-
ant evidence that those charged with
The administration of the foreign pol
icies of these nations would welcome,
or at least not oppose, affirmative
action by neutral agency to bring
about a peace based on international
justice"
DR.. Jordan said that while no Of
ncial information was available,
peace advocates had learned from un-
official sources in Holland, Sweden,
Switzerland, Denmark and Spain that
those countries would be glad to take
part In any movement to further the
cause of peace.
