ARBITRATION AGREED
ON BY CHILE AND
PERU Governments
Hughes Says Signing of Plan
Great Accomplishment in
Western World.

Washington. July 21.-CBy the As
ISOLATED Press.)-The agreement of
Chile and Peru to arbitrate their Tao
na-Arica controversy was signed by
the plenipotentiaries of the two govern
ments Friday at a final session of the
Chilean-Peruvian conference here.
The agreement to settle the ancient
dispute by arbitration was held by
Secretary Hughes in a speech at the
closing session Of the conference as a
sweeping victory for the conference
plan of international negotiation.
If war lis TO be prevented. when in
ternational controversies arise. the sec
rotary declared, it can only be accom-
plished through the willingness of ma
tons to provide for the contacts
of honorable and reasonable men, who
honestly desire to erase difficulties
rather than to keep them alive.
The Tacna-Arica settlement was de-
scribed by Mr.. Hughes as the greatest
accomplishment of the generation in
the direction Of peace in the western
hemisphere.

is that the editorial pages OF the
papers making the attacks are con-
trolled by advertisers who, for busl-
ness reasons, are hostile toward the
official who has been criticised.
Without doubt, there are many people
who honestly believe that it is the
counting room, rather than the n
tum, that controls editorial policy.
That is an unjust opinion, founded
upon ignorance and often supported by
statements such as the one recently
made by an irate senator from the
floor of the upper branch OF the
American congress. Granting that
there are cases where financial ex-
pediency colors the one of editorial
comment. it is equally true that IN
the vastly greater number OF news
papers. the business office bows be-
fore the editorial office whenever a
conflict between the W occurs.
IF we would truly fix the value Of
the editorial page to the newspapers
of the country, let me analyze the SIT
uation, alphabetically created, which
would obtain if that page should be
eliminated from all of the daily and
weekly publications of the land. 1t
would leave all of the papers utterly
colorless and uninteresting. The two
remaining major features. news and
advertising, would lose immeasurably
in attractiveness and value.
Page Soul of Paper
1.-THE editorial page is the very soul
Of the newspaper. There one sees re-
Elected the reasons why the paper is
strong or weak, dead or alive. worth
while or useless. We have in our
country many newspapers which nave
survived the vicissitudes of decades of
changing times Their influence has
passed from generation to generation,
from father to son. An examination
will reveal that this is not due to any
exceptional news policy or to the per
lection of mechanical excellence which
has been responsible for their success
in retaining a place in the confidence of
the shifting circle of readers. That
place may have been held by reason
of editorial policies. which. though they
may have changed to meet altered
conditions. nevertheless retain Away
the strength given by profound con-
victiOn and honest purpose.
Something of Preacher
1.-THE editor, especially of the aver
age small daily or weekly newspaper,
be something of preacher and
more of teacher. He must read his
books but must read also the thoughts
of his people for it is his task not only
to admonish and instruct, but also to
interpret the shifting phases of public
He must be stout of heart
for there will always come days when,
if he is honest with himself, he must
stand against the contagion of I'M
reasoning hysteria, the Anglers of
prejudice. the hasty tempers
Of bigotry and intolerance. Cowardice
at such times makes him a menace to
well ordered society; but steadfastness
him a rock against which the
waves of ignorance and passion beat in
vain. And when the storms of the
hour have subsidized he will be regarded
as one not wholly without honor even
in his own country" {
