ere is no doubt that the Ameri-
people are anxious to assist in
ing such conditions in the world
the present prosperity of our
try will not only continue, but
also increase. The discussion
has arisen over our international
ons has been with regard to the
way by which to secure this con-
d prosperity. Some of those who
ovposed any co-operation on the,
of this country with other coun-
have frankly expressed the be-
,hat the older order of rushing to
to settle international disputes
not be changed. No plan, there-
looking to the co-operatio of
Jnited States with the nations of

payments: $50,000 will be paid to the
author of the winning plan as soon
as the referendum is completed. The!
second $50,000 will be paid' "if when
the plan in substance and intent, is
approved by the United States Senate'
or if it is decided that an adequatet
degree of popular support has been
demonstrated for the winning plan."'
The question whether amendments
which may be made in the Senate ma-
terially affect the content of the plan

jection of these amendments, is left
^ntirely to the judgment of the jury.
The second half of the award shall
not be deemed won unless the con-

are fulfilled on or before March

Although the author of the Blok peace plan will not be officially an nnnd nntil after the balloting is
concluded in February, it is declared in Washington that the prize-winning plan is the work of Mr. and Mrs.
William Atherton Dupuy. Mr. and Mrs. Dupuy recently returned from Goneva, Switzerland, where he held an
official position with the League of Nations. His wife is prominent in the affairs of the League of American
Pen Women. Mr. Dupuy has been a newspaperman all his life, but has had some experience in warfare in be-
