IProposed by the Argentines and secondled by Charles Evans Hughes for the United States, an oral motion I was approved today to make the "open covenants openly arrived at," the keynote of the sixth Pan-American congress by establishing a rule of public committee meetings and plen- iary sessionis. Today's meeting was held for an exchange of view's between chiefs of missions here, to agree upon pro- cedlure and conference and to' lay a basis for concerted action regarding organization of the parliament. To- day's decisions must be confirmed by tomorr'ow's pleniary sessions. I . Chiefs Agree Losing no time in starting work after thle festivities of 'I rusident C'ool- Idge's visit to hlavana, chiefs of dei- gations found themselves in practical- ly unanimous agreement. regarding the beginning of the conferences, -.c- tivities and the general policy to be followed in the conference as It whole. The happy solution of the, probhlm of public or executive conimitte e ses- sions was hailed by all delegates as Symptomatic of the ease with which apparently difficult pioblems .could be disposed of if good will were pres- ent and the accomplishment intro- duced a note of opthisimn into all forecasts as to the congress. It was pointed out that this was the first in- stance of complete publicity in a con- ference of this nature and it was re- called that this very subject gave ground for much vivacious debate in the 1923 San Diego, Chile, congress, with subsequent criticism of the re- sults obtained. Argentine Thtanks Hughes Honorio Pueyrredon, Argentine am bassador to Washington, took the in- itiative in bringing up the matter of open committee meetings for immediate discussion and determination. After the meeting hie expressed great apprecia- t ion that Mr. Hughes, in t'he name of the United States delegation, had im- Smediately seconded his motion, there- by adding the prestige of American approval and securing beyond a doubt a majority for his motion. Ambass- ador Pueyrredon appealed to other delegates in favor of his motion by ~declaring that he objected on prin- ciple to "private discussion of public affairs," adding that, since questions d (iscuissedl in the conference will be of world-wide importance, (le inter- j vention of public and press ought to b e welcomed insteadl of repulsed. Tis morning's session also put on record heads of delegations as favoring I the constitution of eight committees to report on topics on the agenda be- fore their presentation to the plenary 'session. A move was made by lead- ers of sonic of (lie lesser delegations to increase this number to 21, makting possible the appointment of each dele- gation head as chairman of one com- niittee. Trhe proposal was rejected on ,the grounds that closer cooperation could be achieved with, fower com- miittees.
