DIPLOMATIC CHANGE
BOLD MOVE BY PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. IN PREPARATION FOR TALKS WITH RUSSIA. WASHINGTON. September 27. The appointment of Mr Edward Stettinius, who replaced Mr Sumner Welles as Assistant Secretary of State, is regarded as a bold move bj r President Roosevelt, preparing United States diplomacy for the forthcoming tripartite meetings with Britain and Russia, says the Associated Press of America. Observers say that by the appointment of Mr Stettinius, President Roosevelt means to entrust most of the critical negotiations now developing to men possessing hard-headed business experience and known as friendly to Russia, rather than to more professional diplomats or persons whose views on Russia are based on ideological instead of realistic considerations. Both Mr Stettinius and Mr Averell Harriman, U.S. co-ordinator in London for lend-lease, who are reported to be accompany the Secretary of State, Mr Cordell Hull, to Moscow, may be described as committed to United States salf-interest in international affairs and at the same time as friendly toward Russia. The vast amount of lend-lease material they have been instrumental in getting to Russia has given, the Soviet evidence of their co-operative attitude.
