that the time has arrived for q general
peace conference, to be participated In
by representatives of the nations OF the
world, and particularly those OF Latin
America. / believe the time is propitious
for world peace, but for such program
to be effective there should and must
be commercial and industrial activity. :

"I know Of no edifice In the world in
which it would be more appropriate to
hold such a conference than Independ-
ence Hall. Here could assemble the
best minds of the world, seated in the
chairs of the trainers of the charter OF
liberty. They could, am sure, draw up
a document which would 60 down in
history, together with the Declaration
of Independence, as guarantors D. per-
petual peace among the nations OF the
world.
II recognize the fact, as revealed by
history, that no great worldwide move

q solid moral foundation and spiritual
Therefore, believe that the cause
Of universal peace can be materially
advanced by following this proposed
peace assembly with o conference OF
the representatives Of every religious
faith In the world, held at Independence

1t Is no wonder science holds q firm
