French Empire United
For Defeat Of Axis,
Roosevelt Declares
Criticism of Governments
Policy Described os
Vicious Propaganda
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
President Roosevelt, upholding
his French policy, said today all
the French Empire now appears
to be working for the common
cauSe-to liberate France and
defeat the Axis.
The President described as vicious
propaganda certain criticisms at
tacking the Governments policy
since France fell, saving it was very
unfair, incorrect and derogatory to
well-ordered plan going back sew
eral years
The President told his press con-
ference he did not intervene with
force to take over Martinique and
Guadeloupe, French Caribbean pos
sessions, as some critics of his policy
had urged, but waited to avoid
bloodshed and consequences which
would have cut into the overall war
picture.
Got Base on Balls"
Using the parlance of the base
bail diamond, he said the State De-
partment and the administration
waited out the situation and got a
base on balls.
He asserted the United States has
kept aloof from internal politics in
other countries, but that out of this
has come vicious propaganda
which he declared harmful.
Mr.. Roosevelt said the Govern
ment's policy has been consistent
since the fall of France and pri-
marily aimed at keeping the French
fleet from falling into Axis hands.
Although Vichy scuttled much of
the French feet following the North
African invasion, he said the Amer
lean policy has been working out
very well and is aimed at working
hand in hand with all those ele-
ments who believe in liberty and
freedom and who oppose the Axis.
Mentions Replacement Of Robert.
The Chief Executive began his dis
cussion of French policy by saying
that since his last press conference
things have been going along pretty
well in that connection. He men,
toned the capitulation to the Allied
cause of Admiral Georges Robert as
administrator of Martinique and his
replacement by Henri-Etienne Hop
penot for the National Committee
of French Liberation.
He said many people. including a
lot of persons he described as isola-
tionists. wanted the United States
to take a fleet and capture Mar
Unique. BY so doing, he added, this
Government would have at the same
time, been buying large headache
involved in running the island.

|WiI|kie 10 Run Again
If Mccormick Enters
Race in Illinois
Reody to Test Issue
OF lnternutionoIism
Versus NotionoIism
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, July 16.-Wendel,
Willkie has disclosed that he will!
be candidate for the 1914 Republi-
can presidential nomination pro-
vided Col. Robert r. Mccormick
publisher of the Chicago Tribune
enters the Illinois preferential pri-
mary next April.
Mr.. Willkie. 1910 presidential
nominee, revealed his hand in the
following question and answer in
his own handwriting which he gave
out for publication:
Have you seen reports that Col.
Mccormick may run in the Illinois
primary for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination."
Yes" was his written reply. II
certainly hope it is true. For then
could really make the issue
clear-the greatest issue of the day
American relations to the rest of
the world and liberal internal do
mestic policies
Willkie Plans Survey.
Asked II he would enter other
preferential primaries, Willkie said
that could be decided later. His
present plan is to make complete
survey in January, then decide
future moves.
When Mr.. WILKES statement
was made, Col. Mccormick was in
Canada and there was no imme-
diate indication as to If and when
an answer would be forthcoming.
Col. Mccormick has not COM
mented on the request that he en-
ter the primary, made July by the
Republican Nationalist Revival
Committee. recently organized
group with an announced aim to
help maintain the Republican Party
as the nationalist party" in Ameri-
can politics.
In statement issued last night
in Chicago, William j. Grace, Sec
retary of the committee. said
IF Willkie will follow through and
become a candidate in the Illinois
presidential preferential primary
next April he may in part justify
his existence by giving the people
an opportunity for a referendum
that is as important in American
history as 1776 or 1868.
mo two men in American life to-
day could give the people an oppor-
tunity for a referendum on the
issue of nationalism versus interna-
tionalism = like Col. Mccormick
and Wendell Willkie."
Party's Chances Declared Good.
Mr.. Willkie said that if Col. Nc
Cormick is a primary candidate he
would stump Illinois thoroughly
walking from town to town, if nee
essary, to spread his doctrine.
He added that he believed that
if the COP convention adopts the
right kind of platform and a SUBJ
stantial agreement as to the man ii
selects for candidate, the chances
of the party returning to the White
House are good.
Mr.. Willkie feels that only if such
conditions prevail would he be in.
terested in the nomination. He is
confident that his position is q
strong one in which he need moi
compromise.

Radio Station Imports
Records From England
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, July l6.-In spite of
a ban by the American Federation
of Musicians against the making of
recordings for radio, a new record
of "As Time Goes BY" and batch
of other popular tunes were broad
cast by station WNEW last night.
The method of obtaining the rec
ords, the studio said, was the BRAIN
child of Martin Block, station an
nouncer who presides over programs
of music recordings.
Mr.. Block arranged to have
friends in England mail to him new
