The United States as the Prize for
settlement Of the Present European
Conflict"
1T is stated on high authority that
suggestions have been made In the
diplomatic circles Of European chan.
celleries declaring that the easiest so
4 luton and the one most acceptable to
all the warning nations would be the
partition among them Of the United
states Of America. The United States
ut America are n most inviting prize
as compensation for the sacrifices ren
dcred by these nations, and an ar
rlngcment on the basis Of the respec
tive relations Of the different ma
lions Is surprisingly practicable
No Effort nj All
$50 far from being visionary
/ scheme for solution " this great
/ world conflict, the fact is only too ap
parent that only small part NJ the
effort expended In the sanguinary
struggle, now raging, would have sur
ticcd all nations In their respective
4 ambitions.
"A noted diplomat declared his sur
/. Prise, that this idea Uf the partition
OF the United States mad not emerged
sooner, because the land is 50 lnrgrly
made up OF the constituency Of all the
warning nations
The tentative plan to satisfy thus
the national ambitions Of the Euro
pean countries at war, instead Of pro
longing the internicene struggle, Is
broadly outlined as follows.
England's Share
Great Britain is TO occupy New
England Maryland, Virginia. North

"France is to get the French parts
of Eastern Canada and the states Of
Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Ark
