SUGGESTED FEDERATION.
OF CENTRAL AMERICAN REPUBLICS. U.S.A. SENATOR’S PROPOSAL. (Received Sunday, 5.5 p.m.) NEW YORK, February 5. Discussing the Nicaraguan situation, Senator Shipste&tf announced that he will introduce a resolution in the Senate proposing that President Coolidge invite the five Republics of Central America to Washington for a conference with the object of forming a sovereign Central American Federation. The resolution will pledge the United State to extend substantial assistance in connection with the creation of a stable currency and banking system and other indispensable institutions, and special consideration in the field of commercial policy, receiving in return plenary rights to construct and a perpetual lease to operate the inter-ocean-ic canal heretofore the subject of negotiation-. Senator Shipstead said that much of the trouble in Central America arises from the rather irresponsible nature- of the governments in several of these Republics, all five of which have much to gain and little to lose by creating a single State.—(A. and N.Z.)
