DELICATE POINT.
U.S. FOREIGN POLICY. Recognition of Manchukuo State. MR. ROOSEVELT SILENT. (United P.A.—Electric Telegraph—Copyright) NEW YORK, February 22. The "Washington correspondent of the "New York Times" states that President Roosevelt has intimated that the question of the possible recognition by the United States of Manchukuo after the forthcoming coronation of Mr. Pu Yi as Emperor, is such a delicate one that it cannot be discussed at present. Unofficially, experts connected witli Far Eastern affairs, however, are inclined to believe that the Government will assume a more conciliatory attitude on the Manchukuo and other issues which have arisen with Japan, should the League of Nations withdraw its condemnation of Japan's action in aiding the establishment of the new State. There would appear to be no reason why the United States should not follow such a lead. In any event it is considered certain that Mr. Roosevelt will not follow the unswerving attitude embodied in the non-recognition policy of the ex-Secre-tary of State, Mr. H. L. Stimson.
