To Preserve Peace

n petition addressed to the British commission
"A and the French mission bearing the sigma
lures Of thirty prPn1nenFt Americans, was cabled
by the visiting diplomats to their respective gov
crnmentl during their visits in America. in which
it was stated that American sentiment is that
when the present war ends it shall not be followed
by trade war.
1.-The petitioners. including such names as Jacob
II. Schff, DR.. Charles w. Iihot, George Haven
Putnam, George Foster Peabody ]. G.. Phelps
Stokes, Charles s. Fairchd, Horace F. Deming
and Henry B. Sargent hold that if the world is
TO be kept at peace, economic peace based upon
freedom or trade as we'll freedom OF the seas,
must be established and maintained
They state their belief that il such trade war
as has been outlined by various conferences and
conventions representing the combattant Entente
peoples be launched after actual hostilities have
ceased, it will "only result in future cataclysms
even greater than that which has already piled up
on future generations burdens of taxation and
row well nigh too grievous to be borne." sa
Holding that there must be an international
league Of industrial peace, as well of peace in
the military sense the petitioners further empha-
size their belief that this is the sure and
enduring foundation for league of honor or a
league Of peace for disarmament, for the restric-
ton of burdens upon the people, and for true and
prosperous democracy throughout the world" :
