NEW YORK APPROVAL
(Received February 12, 9.30 a.m.)
NEW YORK, February 11,
The "New York Times," in an editorial, approves Mr. Welles's trip and adds "the fact that President Roosevelt undoubtedly knows the slightness of the prospect of immediate peace, does not prevent him thinking about the world that must emerge from the present tragedy. We have no right to tell those who are bearing the strain and grief of the struggle what they must do to end it, but we know there cannot be a durable peace unless there is an eventual reduction in armaments and trade barriers. If neutrals can face common troubles with a common outlook the next peace may be more than an armed truce. The talks with neutrals are proof of long-range thinking of the right sort."
