ROOSEVELT,
HOOVER TO
CON FER
. FRIDAY
Foreign Affairs Will Provide
Subject of Parley; Session
Scheduled for II A. NJ.
By GEORGE R. HOLMES

President Hoover and Presi.
dent elect Roosevelt will con-
fer again on Friday and their
discussion will be entirely con-
fined to foreign affairs, in-
cluding the controversial sub
ject of war debts, over which.
they disagreed in their Novem-
Der conference.
1t was announced at the White
House today that domestic mat.
tiers would not be touched upon.
The range Of discussion In for.
eign affairs will be unlimited, it
was said, and include American
policy in the Far Eastern Situa-
tion, the proposed world economic
conference, war debts, the dis.
armament conference at Geneva
which is to reconvene in the near
future, and such other problems in
foreign policy as necessitate some
sort Of a continuing American
policy.
Made Over Phone
It was learned that the invita-
ton for Mr.. Roosevelt to call on
Mr.. Hoover came over the long
distance telephone from Secre.
tary of State Henry l.. Stimson
last night.
Only yesterday Mr.. Roosevelt
issued a statement which was
construed as putting him in &C.
cord with the Hoover-Stimson
policy on the Far East question.
The belief prevails that Presi-
dent Hoover now seeks to make Q
new approach to Presidentelect
Roosevelt on the controversial
war debt situation over which
they have previously disagreed.
Grave Doubt Exists
In the light Of their previous
exchanges on these subjects, how
ever, some doubt is felt that any
thing like a joint program can
be attained, for Governor RooSe-
velt's views are considerably at
variance with those of Mr..
Hoover.
In their previous meeting, some
weeks ago, Governor Roosevelt
declined to join with Mr.. Hoover
in joint selection of delegates to
the world economic conference
or to designate ENJOYS t ore-open
debt discussions with foreign
powers on the. ground that to do
so would morally commit his adj
miniStration at a time when he
had no responsibility and no
authority.
Result In Failure
In this meeting, Governor
Roosevelt was accompanied by
Prof. Raymond Moley, one Of his
chief economic advisers, and Pres.
ident Hoover had with him
Secretary Of the Treasury Mills.
The four sat about a table in
the red room Of the White House
and discussed international af-
fairs at considerable length.
The conference resulted in q
