REPUBLICAN FEARS
IN THE UNITED STATES ISOLATIONIST ATTITUDE DECLARED. PRESIDENT'S STATEMENT QUESTIONED. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. WASHINGTON, March 31. The Republican National Committee has issued a statement calling President Roosevelt’s statement about Mr Welles’ mission to Europe “advance notice that- the President contemplates the United Slates playing a major role in the settlement of the European quarrel.” “Let us be on guard against another effort to make the United States a guarantor of peace in the Old World, with the American army as a bond,” says the statement. “Mr Roosevelt should not deal in veiled statements, but should tell Americans exactly what he proposes to do.” Mr Roosevelt, in the course of a statement to the Press on Friday,, said: "Though there may be scant immediate prospect of the establishment of any just stable and lasting peace in Europe, the information made available to this Government as a result of Mr Welles’ mission will undoubtedly be very valuable when the time comes for the establishment of such a peace.”
