STRONG APPROVAL

FEELING IN WASHINGTON

Rec. 11 a.m. NEW YORK, Sept. 13. Mr. Cordell Hull's pronouncement on foreign policy has stirred unusual interest and strong approval in diplomatic circles in Washington, says the "New York Sun." Representatives of foreign Governments in Washington found the timing, as well as the contents of Mr. Hull's broadcast very significant, particularly his statement that large and small nations are both equal under law to every other nation, also that both large and small nations are entitled to freedom from outside interference in their internal affairs. Such references are likely to have a powerful effect on the small nations of Hungary, Bulgaria, and Rumania. The "World-Telegram" editorially says that Mr. Hull's declaration of American foreign policy is a great State document. "Here is no 'isolationism, no super-State. Here is a sane policy of co-operation by the sovereign United States with other nations for peace," it said. Mr. Hull announced that Iran will be received, formally into the United Nations tomorrow when the Iranian Minister will sign the United Nations declaration of January 1, 1942.
