TERRITORIAL DISPUTES
SETTLEMENT POSTPONED (Rec. 9 p.m.) WASHINGTON, Nov. 16. Britain and America have agreed chat a settlement of European territorial disputes should be postponed until the end of the war, said Mr Cordell Hull at a press conference. He explained that the Moscow formula for giving Italy political self-determi-nation would serve as an. example in dealing with other liberated areas, but territorial controversies must wait.
“ No other policy can be allowed to interfere unless someone wants to suspend the whole war and settle many territorial questions first,” said Mr Hull. It followed that no liberated area could be dealt with finally until territorial questions were settled. »
The Associated Press points out that Mr Hull thus leaves unanswered such questions as the ultimate status of the Baltic States.
