The United States cannot agree to Russia's proposal for a _i'clnt Soviet-Turkish defence of iiie straits. This proposition is considered here as tantamount to a Soviet demand for military bases in the straits. 2. The United States cannot ,agree to Russia's proposal that control of the straits should be worked out by agreement only among the Black Sea powers. ‘ 3. On the contrary. the United States feels that the issues in- .volved in future control and use ‘of the Dardanelles should be settled in accordance with United Natl ns principles; that is, by i bro: inicmailonal agreement along the lines of the W958i" Montrcux treaty whlcih {row gov- erns the straits. 4.

Aug. 19 - (AP) _- Elliott Roosevelt says in his lei-tri- ccming bod; on his father, "As I Saw It." that Franklin D Roose- velt and Winston Churcnlll dis- cgrecd on the subject of common- wealth trade agrcements in the course of their Atlantic Charter conference in August, 1941. In a foreword criticism, the younger Roosevelt says B150 that the path to vmrld peace which the late President charted “has been gricyously-and deliberately -foc- silken." “I am sure that we are being shoved away” from wartime Big rec unity "by men who should know better" ‘te writes in the first of four advance excerpts to be puc- lLshed tomorrow by Look maga- zinc. The complete book will 0c published in October by Duell. Sloan and Pearce. Elliott Roosevelt identities the "soboieurs of zinity" only generally: the men who '10 not recognize that the United states, Britain and Russia “must work to eth l“ CI‘ g . peace is to be maintained?‘ “tho B cirecr men in the State Depart- ment who father hover trusted." and "the reimtionarles of both parties in Congress." He does not mention President Trumim. who hin- said that cur- rent State Department policy is White House uolit y. Aside from this foreword critic- ism-, the excerpt published by Look deals with the younger Rsaosevelts reminiscences of the Atlantzr Charter conference, Elliott, who and other famous meeilrgs, says a "difference was evidenced" there between Winston Churchill and Mr. Roosevelt, "frrst, and sharply, over empire." "Mr. President," Mr. Churchill "Qt DTODOS-e {or t. moment to lose its favored position among the Do- minions." ldent referred to Mr. Churchill as “a real old Tory" and added; I “H15 9"! hi; Jdb is to see that Britain survives tnis war, 11L; mind is perfect for that of a war leader.
