Resolution in the
Senate.
PRESIDENT WOULD AID ALL

Washington, May pa resolution
requesting the president, unless in.
compatible with the public interest,
to suggest to warning nations of Eu.
rope that the United States undertake
mediation was introduced into the SEN
ate on Thursday by Senator Lewis Of
Illinois, to lie on the table for discus
sion later.
The resolution would authorize the
president to propose that the bellig.
erents declare truce and that each
of them select a neutral country as
it's representative on a board Of ar.
bitration thus created:
Each selected neutral would name
one member of the board, over which
the president or his representative
would preside as referee. Under the
plan each belligerent would present
its demands or claims to the board.
which would be authorized to arrive
at an equitable adjustment.
The resolution recites that it is sug-
gested as an expression of the desire
for any Of the belligerents.
President Wilson told callers that
the intervention Of a neutral in be-
half Of peace in Europe could rest only
on a mutual understanding by the bel
ligerents that terms to be arranged
are to conserve the interests of all,
and of the world at large, rather than
those Of a particular nation or group
of nations among the warning powers.
Mr.. Wilson gave the impression that
when the conditions he outlined were
likely of fultillment
