american's suggestion PRESERVATION OF PEACE "may have to fight"
Rec. 6.30 p.m. San Francisco. Sept. 28. Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney on hir return to San Francisco today from a visit to New Zealand, Australia and the Far East, suggested that the United States should call a conference of the Pacific nations to discuss means of preserving
per.ee. "I predict that out of such a conference would corrie a peace that would last many years, because if Japanese intentions are peaceful she will have a chance to prove it. If not, other nations will have a chance to get together for mutual welfare. "There is no question it would be a great loss to us if we awoke one morn-
ing to find the great resources of Australia ,the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines diverted elsewhere and perhaps to find other happily free people like ourselves free no longer. "If these things are not worth the utmost effort to preserve now, when they still can be preserved, then we may soon have to fight for them when the odds are turned very much against us."
