AMERICA STILL ALOOF
ECONOMIC CONFERENCE IN
EUROPE
(By Eleotrlo Telegraph.—Copyright.! (Australian & N.Z. Cable Association.)
WASHINGTON, 24th Dec. Official notification has been received that the United States lias been invited to send delegates to the International Economic Conference, to he held under the auspices of the League of Nations in Europe next May. The State Department declines to say whether it will accept until the text of the invitation, becomes known. However, it is felt that it would he unwise for tlie United States to enter, even through unofficial spokesmen, a conference in Europe that might throw open for discussion such questions as the American tariff, immigration restriction, and a possible modification, or even cancellation, of the war debts. Yet there is some feeling in official circles that the United States might well attend, in order that- its position regarding important, questions might he set forth by its own citizens, without being subjected to unanswered criticism by others.
