Y.M.C.A. ENDEAVOURS TO FIX WAR BLAME.
DIFFICULTIES ARISE AT INTERNATIONAL SESSION. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. NEW YORK, August 8. The international conference of the Young Men’s Christian Association, which is in session at Cleveland, reached a deadlock over the question of Germany’s responsibility for the war. The subject was introduced in a resolution passed by the committee that no one nation could be held responsible. The resolution proved unacceptable to the French group, while the German group agitated for settlement of the question.
President Hoover, addressing the delegates by radio, said: “The problems before the world were never greater than to-day. No small degree of the responsibility for their solution rests upon you. I and my countrymen have confidence in you and the contributions you w r ill make to the future.”
