San Francisco, Sept. 29
Mr. C. V. Whitney, director of Pan American Airways, returned here from a tour of the Orient yesterday and suggested that the United States call a conference of the Pacific nations to discuss means for preserve ing peace.
"I predict that out of such a conference would come a peace lasting many years, because if Japan's intentions are peaceful, she will have a a chance to prove it," he said." If Japan's intentions are not peaceful. the other nations would at least have a chance to get together for their mutual welfare, "There is no question that it would be a great loss to us if we awoke one morning to find the great resources of Australia, the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines diverted elsewhere, and find that other happily free people like ourselves are free no longer.
"It these things are not worth every possible effort to preserve now when they still can be preserved, then we may soon have to fight for them much against us."—United Press.
