I’resident .Roosevelt lias I'oiTiinlatecl general objectives which he regards as essential for any just and lasting peace, but feels it unwise Io make them public at presenl. lie outlined these objectives to a deputation of churchmen yesterday under pledge of secrecy, emphasising I hat they were al present ideals rather than proposals, but. observers feel they tire in. definite shape and tire withheld because it is fell. 1 hat a successl'iil peace effort al present is impossible.
The disclosure tends to confirm the reports that economic and foreign affairs experts have been working on a broad survey of the possible bases for a lasting peace, with the idea of making definite proposals when success is likely. The churchmen’s reference to peace hopes that will be encouraged by the spring brought a repeated statement by President Roosevelt, at a Press conference, that peace moves will be made only when and if the moment is opportune.”
