VERY GREAT SUCCESS
LIMA CONFERENCE
MR. ROOSEVELT'S OPINION
WASHINGTON, December 28
President Roosevelt refused to comment directly on the jubilation of the Nazi Press over the "failure of/ the United States policy in South America," but expressed complete satisfaction with the achievements in Lima.
The President said he considered the conference a very great success and added: "The American delegation accomplished ' what it hoped to accomplish. It is felt here, even by those who would have liked to see a stronger attitude defined, that it is better to have a unanimous statement recorded than a declaration adopted which was tantamount to ruling out Argentina from the Western Hemisphere."
