AMERICAN NEUTRALITY
ALL-PARTY CONFERENCE. (Received September 19, 12.15 WASHINGTON, September 18. Mr. Roosevelt has invited Mr. Landon and the known titular heads oi the Republican Party, to participate in a conference of the nation’s leaders at the White House on Wednesday, to consider America’s neutrality programme. Mr. Knox, who was Mr. Landon’s “running mate” in the 1936 election, said that Mr. Roosevelt would achieve “remarkable statesmanship if he included the leaders of opposing parties in his Cabinet.” It is understood that the conference is designed not only to enlist bi-par-tisan support for the neutrality proposals, but to determine the strategy to keep isolationist voices at a low pitch, in order to avoid the belief abroad that the nation., is widely divided on Mr. Roosevelt’s foreign policy. ■ ■
