To Hunt For Peace

Abandon "Confusion

Washington, Dec. 29. Mr. M. O. Reynolds, Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Commities of the House of Representatives broadcast an appeal to-night urging the United States to lead in the search for pence by abandoning its "confusion

and isolation,"

He said that while Japan's apology ends the Panay incident it does not end Far Eastern affairs. Apart from the destruction of life and property, there is the equally large question of whether international relations shall be governed by law or violence, The United States must insist upon the #nelity of treaties.
