The declaration, which in effect would give a multilateral character to the Monroe doctrine, is expected to be presented for action at a full meeting of the conference to-morrow.
The United States Treasurer to-day disclosed at Washington that the Treasury, with the approval of President Ro'osevelt, was earnestly studying a co-operative effort with the Treasuries of the South American and Central American countries with a view to making available adequate exchange facilities and otherwise stimulating trade.
