PRESIDENT B|DED
TIME FOR APPEAL
u. S. Laid Groundwork for
Peace Message Over
Period OF Weeks.

~ the Associated Press.
The story behind President Roose.
vets dramatic appeal for peace "a 4
gripping one.
Feeling the crisis approaching, Sec
retsry Hull determined six weeks ago
10 lay down the principlesS for which
the United States stood. This he did
August Is In radio address setting
forth a seven point program for peace.
Then, a. the crisis grew. the ques-
ton arose as to whether the Govern
mer1t was to say anything more.
Mr., Hull. consulting the President,
decided he had said what there was
to be said and would stand on 1t.
Mr.. Roosevelt, at press conferefaee
tvo weeks ago, said reports the United
states was aligned morally with
Britain and France In a stop Hitler
movement were 100 per cent wrong.
Wanted Unbiased Stand.
The impression created was that the
United States had disinterested itself
from Europes travail and would hold
absolutely aloof.
The President. however, was seeking
to create position of absolute neu-
trelity 40 that If and when the moment
came to make An appeal for peace,
An unbiased stand would make it more
effective.
If he had cast the United States
definitely on the side of Britain,
France and Czechoslovakia the appeal
could logically have been made only
to those friends.
From that time on Mr.. Roosevelt
and Secretary Hull considered whether
to make the appeal. They waited and
said nothing. The President Cancelled
two press conferences. refused COM
ment At another Mr. Hull was Sphinx
like at his daily conferences.
The timing was all important. They
felt the effect of an appeal would be
lost if made too soon, but it would be
tragic to wait too long.
Moment Had Come.
They finally decided the moment
mad come. 1t WAS to be written today
and to 90 forward during the night
80 that the leaders Of Germany. Czecfo-
elovakia. Britain and France would
flnd 1t In their hands at the dawn of
the first working day of week that
may decide Europe's fate. Hitler
would get 1t before his momentous
speech, to be made tonight.
Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Hull did not
finish the drafting of the text until
early today.
The scene at the State Department
after midnight was unforgettable. A
score of correspondents, American,
British, French. German and Italian,
most of them routed from bed,
hastened along the corridors past
wondering guards And scrubwomen to
the current information office. where
the copies of the telegram were dis
tributed. Then they rushed away to
telegraph off1ces.
In the State Department, Offices con-
tinued lighted until dawn.
