ROOSEVELT DIPLOMACY New York DISCARDED BY TRUMAN

Washington, Feb. 3.

President Truman has abandoned, and would be most reluctant to resume, the system of Big Three personal diplomacy which his predeces- sor President Franklin D. Roosevelt had pro- moted throughout the war.

Roosevelt thought the best way to solve world pro- blems was to get leaders of the major powers around a table together, Truman prefers to use normal "diplomatic channels" or at the best his Secretary of State.

Although Truman said he would! be happy to meet again with Bri

(1) Trumman prefers not to at tempt another Big Three meet ing, even in Washington, àt pre- Fent because he does not consider

it necessary and would prefer to see the heads of state separately:

(2) Mast American and British

officials believe it is not possible to hold another Big Power meet the which would exclude French:
