The new President is expected to make it plain that in following such a policy there is no question of European entanglements in- volved. In reality, the foreign policy that the new President is expected to follow is nothing more than a broad interpretation of the pre-war American foreign policy, based on the experiences of the war and post-war negotiations and the fact that the United States! has great interests throughout the world as the result of the war. -United Press.
