PRESSES MEX|CANS
TO Join IN PARLEY
One South American Nation
Makes Renewed Efforts to
Persuade Them.

Renewed efforts are being made
by one of the most influential gov
ernments of South America to obtain
Mexico's attendance at the Santiago
conference of the Pan-American
Union, which opens late this month.
Reports of similar move by Chile
reached this country two months
ago, but it was not possible to
reach an understanding, Mexico de-
clining to attend, it was said, be-
cause of the circumstances which
had prevented its Intervention in the
drafting of the program Those cir
cumstances, it was understood, in
cluded the non-recognitIon of the
present Mexican government by the
United States.
The present move is calculated to
sldestep this difficulty. No one in
authority is willing to disclose the
status OF the discussions, but Latin
American diplomats here have gained
the impression that should Mexico
attend the American government
would let it be expressly understood
that the subscription by Mexico OF
any treaty to be signed at Santiago
would not imply recognition by the
United States. Mexico, on the other
hand, is said to be reluctant to at
tend, unless on an equal footing with
other governments.
AS a result diplomatic circles are
pessimistic over the success OF the
present negotiations.

Lausanne Crisis Is Eased.

The sky is brighter at Lausanne
and the menace of war between the
Turks and the allied powers dimin.
ishes. AS the crisis was approached
the enormity of the crime of break
leading to hostilities was appreciated
by both sides. Thanks to the con-
ciliatory endeavors of the American
representative observer, Ambassador
Child. the apparently irreconcilable
protagonists have been brought to at
least the point Of consideration and
there is prospect now for an adjust.
ment.
Lord Curzon yesterday remarked,
as it was announced, that he had
postponed his departure from Lau-
same; that "any fool can make war.
but statesmen must end it," Folly
lies at the root of this greatest of evils,
and no matter how wise and patient
and constructive the craftsmanship
employed in the peace settlements 1t
cannot undo the terrible wrongs that
have been inflicted, or cure the suf-
ferings or restore the losses.
The war started in 1914 was an act
of folly, greedy, avaricious. vengeful
folly. More than four years of the
worst fighting the world has ever
known, with the most appalling losses
and destruction, resulted. A peace
conference was held, at which states
men wrestIed with the problems pre-.
sented, not in the broadest spirit of
reconstruction, but with selfish ends
in view, and in consequence the world
remains in a state of turmoil, with
jealousies and thwarted aspirations
and hatreds seeking expression in
terms of more war.
At Lausanne the problem presented
to the statesmen Is diAcult, in itself,
in the adjustment Of two radically
antagonistic viewpoints, complicated
by religious differences. Selfish COM
merciai interests enter into the equa-
