WASHINGTON, Feb. 7 (UP1--State department officials believed today that the United States, even though it does not become involved in the European war. must participate in any ]teaoo conference that follows it. Despite recurring rumors of pence proposals likely to lie made by various European leaders, administration leaders expressed belief that an "imminent peace” is unlikely. A large number of loading officials determined to keep tilts country out of war, have expressed a desire to avoid the mistakes made at the end of the World War when curre.nt hostilities cease. Among them is Secretary of State Cordell Hull who. along with his advisers, believes that the administration's trade agreements program is an oasis of law and order, civilized decency and orderly Intelnational trade around which to build '•the next peace." Toward tills end. Hull has set up in tin* State department an advisory committee on foreign problems whiclt is attempting economic mobilization for war.
