AMERICAS WARNED
POSSIBLE NAZI PLANS
MEXICO CITY, February 22.
The United States Secretary of State, Mr. E. R. Stettinius, warned the InterAmerican Conference that the Nazis might attempt to establish a base in the Western Hemisphere for an ultimate comeback.
"Axis leaders, of course, will attempt to escape the consequences of their crimes," he said. "We still face the danger of secret Nazi-Fascist infiltration into the political and economic life of tnis hemisphere."
He added that President Roosevelt had agreed that the results of the Yalta Conference had greatly advanced the five basic objectives of United States foreign policy—the earliest possible defeat of the aggressors, control of Germany and Japan so that neither can make war, the right of all peoples to choose their own form of government, the establishment of a world peace organisation, and the determination to wage war with the other United Nations against hunger, poverty, ignorance, and disease.
