FOOD FOR EUROPE
COMMENTS BY PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT NEED FOR BEING CLEAR ON FACTS. AND OF SAFEGUARDS. I By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright i (Received This Day, 11.20 a.m.) WASHINGTON, March 14. An indication that the Administration intends to proceed cautiously on supplying food to European unoccupied countries came from President Roosevelt today, when he stated that if food were provided from this country, there should be certainty that none would go outside the nation helped. Asked, at a Press conference, whether he had any observations on sending food to France, the President said he had one suggestion: People should be fairly clear in their facts on the food situation in Europe before reaching conclusions. ‘‘There is not much question,” Mr Roosevelt added, "that the actual lack of foods to keep body and soul together is greatest in Spain.” That raised a question, he said, about the certainty that none of the food that might be sent over should go outside a particular place.
