After an informal mesting, which lasted only & few minutes, the Chilean-Peruvian conference heré ad- journed without action again today. s to await further instructions from meeting Wwill not be held until Monday. With the Chilean-Paruvian confer- ence here approaching the end of its second week and stlll undecided over its important {ssues, there was wide- spread discyssion in diplomatic circles today over the possibility of aid from the United es government to bring the two sides together. No Mediation Steps. At the State Department it was said that no definite steps toward mediation had been taken, but in other quarters there were intimations that a plan to appeal to the depart- ment " for advice had been dlscussed as a possible last resort shauld the negotiations reach a deadlock. That the deadlock stage was at hand, how- ever, none of the delegates would concede. , The two delegations were called to- gether again today for a joint ses- sion after a two-day regess, witile they communicated with Rheir home governments. A policy of close secrecy was observed. however, both groups apparently taking the posi- tion that the negotiations were at a too Intricate stage to permit of public discussion. There were no in- dications that any definite result had been attained. Position of U. S."0Of only prediction American offi- ould make regarding possible ction by this government was that o step would be taken untll both e- partment advice would be welcome. The impression was given that if such advice were given, It would be after the two delegations had defi nitely agreed on their own initiati t6 lay their troubles before the de- partment and to ask for suggestions. It also was forecast that If that course were adopted, it would be with the underdstanding that neither side would be bound to accept any sol tion wiich the depaftment might of- fer for consideration. Some of the delegates. at least, were said to feel that a satisfactory agreement would be more probable if the representatives of all three governments went into consultation entirely free from anv of the re- straints usually attending a formal arbitration. SPEAKS ON AGRICULTURE. Treasury Official Calls It Basic In- dustry of World. The importance of agriculture in the United States was stressed Wednesday at the City Club by Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Charles W. Pugsley, speaking before the weekly meeting of the Rotary Club. “Agriculture is nog only the basic in- dustry in this country and in the world, but its economic condition is & barom- eter of business and finance,” said Mr. Pugsley. A bronze emblem, sent to this coun- try by the Rotary Club of France, will be placed on the tomb of the unknown soldier by the Jocal club next Sunday at 4 o'clock. according to.an_announce- ment by President Cooper. Mr. Franke of Paris will present the emblem, which will be received by Assistant Secretary of War Wainwright. ORDERED TO HAITI. Lieut. Commander Richard H.
