"The whole country should be behind the President, in view of the situation, on a non-partisan basis," he declared.

President Roosevelt. In reply, declared:

belleve the overwhelming majority of our countrymen desire peace with all peopies. But through- out our history we have rejected

every suggestion that ultimate

security can be assured by closing our eyes to the fact that we are a part the world, and owe a measure of co-operation, even leadership, in maintaining the standards of conduct helpful to the goal of general peace." Mr. Landon's telegram is regarded valuable reinforcement which will help the President handle the Far East crisis on a national basis.- Reuter.
