 PREVENT FUTURE WARS
Conference of Lawyers in London Adopts Resolutions Urging Nations
 of World to Take Action.

London, July 17.-(Correspondence assist in formulating "a practicable plan, in accordance with the principle of the League of Nations, to maintain international peace and justice after the war;" was expressed in a resolu- tion adopted by a conference of law yers recently held here.
 Lord Pormaar in his opening ad dress said he would like to see the question directly considered as te which of the nations at war are pre- pared to adopt some common inter- national arrangement in order to prevent, as far as possible, any re- currence of such war as the present one. This, he said, would be a fair ly effective test of the real position
 Baron Buckmaster of Cheddin2ton, formerly lord high chancellor, said it was exactly three years ago since Austria delivered the ultinatum to Serbia which had led to the confia grafton in which the world was being fast consumed. It arose out of a murder which was easily susceptible

If any power imas H. ed this security could be gained bti crushing it's adversaries, it was doomed to pitiable failure The pao- ples, he said would universally acc al't the idea of league of nations. Lord Shaw expressed the opinion that armaments beyond those necfs- sary for the maintenance of order within the state and national quota
