THE Citizen's Conference on George
Washington and the Cooperation of
States, to be held in the city of Washing-
ton under the auspices of the American
Peace Society, May 2 to 5, is attracting wide
interest, especially among conservative men
and women of our country. The need for
such a conference is acknowledged widely.
In whatever direction we turn, the world,
our own country not excepted, is faced with
problems of the gravest magnitude. Tur-
bulence stalks through every walk of life.
Practically all of our problems are affected
by our country's international relations, be

of our national and international policies

of Washington's birth, and because the
American Peace Society has been invited by
the officials responsible for the celebration
of the Bicentennial to hold its Conference
in the city of Washington, this gathering
in the interests of a greater stability of
opinion is specifically named George Wash-

committee. The chairman of this commit-
tee is James Brown Scott. Associated with
