WORLD TROUBLES

CONVERSATIONS IN AMERICA ELEVEN NATIONS INVITED UNITED STATES’ POLICY Australian and N.2. Cable. NEW YORK, April 9, Eleven nations have been invited by President Roosevelt to join in the Washington conversations. In every case the President expressed a desire to talk with the chief of the Government if possible. Failing that, he asks for a trusted Minister. The Washington correspondent of the New York Times states that at a conference with journalists yesterday the Secretary of State, Mr Cordell Hull, propounded the Administration’s new policy of economic inter-' nationalism in contrast with what he termed the economic nationalism of the past three Republican Presidents. Mr Hull said the Government now was prepared to meet the nations on the plane required by what he considered was a new age that called for just such proposals as were contained in the agenda of the World Economic Conference. He said the pend- [ ing conversations with the invited representatives of 11 nations in Washington would strengthen the World Conference and not remove, in effect, that conference from London through the advace negotiations in America.
