What arguments President Roosevelt would muster in two-syllable words for that important appeal were last week foreshadowed by an interview he gave. Arthur Krock, No. 1 Washington correspondent of the New York Times, was admitted to the Presidential presence and given the benefit of a pontifical discussion of the issue by the man most interested.

The story by Arthur Krock of President Roosevelt's plans to invite Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin and other chiefs of States to a diplomatic conference (TIME, Sept. 7) was almost too fantastic even to be a trial balloon. But observers know there is no fantasy in assuming that Franklin Roosevelt, having performed miracles...
