Roosevelt Is Expected
To Visit Churchill for
New Conference Soon
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A meeting between President
Roosevelt and Prime Minister
Churchill may come about before
long, the way cleared in part by
Mr.. Roosevelt's dramatic revision
of French policy to permit prac-
tical cooperation with Gen.
Charles de Gaulle.
The problem OF lo-American
relations with Gen. de Gaulle's Ma
tional Committee of Liberation has
been one of the most difficult ever
to trouble the course of affairs which
have to be handled jointly by WASH
ington and London.
The President and the Prime Min
lister have at various times been
fairly close together in their desire
not to recognize the committee as q
provisional government, but Mr.
Churchills position has been COM
pllcated, first, by the fact that his
own foreign office has long favored
recognition and, second, by indica
tions that this attitude in recent
months has become increasingly
widespread throughout the British
government.
Trip Hinted Twice.
Had this recognition issue re-
manned in highly unsettled con-
dition with Allied armies in France
1t would undoubtedly have colored
all the discussions of Mr.. Roosevelt
and Mr.. Churchill in their expected
talks.
No time for these talks has been
indicated. The President, however.
mas limited at two news conferences
that he expects to see the Prime
Minister this summer or fall and
that he would probably make the
trip to Britain this time instead of
having Mr.. Churchill come over.
For long time Gen. Eisenhower.
lacking an Allied directive, relied
on French cooperation along the
lines that had been informally
agreed TO with French Gen. Koenig
zen. oe GaulleS representative.
Talks Here Broke Jam.
The informal nature Of the Eisen-
mower -koenig arrangements is re-
garded here as having contributed
to the breakdown in corporation
between Gen. de Gaulle and Gen.
Eisenhower in the hours immedi-
ately before the invasion started, It
was not until about two weeks after
D-day that the Allied command
nnally got co-opera ton worked out
with the French on a day-to- day
basis.
The highly friendly talks held bv
Mr.. Roosevelt and Gen. de Gaulle
last week broke the jam, even
though they are understood to have
oeen OF a most general nature.
tuesday the President was able to
announce he was prepared, pending
election by liberated French people
to deal with the committee as the
de facto authority" in civil ad-
ministration in France. The COM
mittee would function under gen.
eral supervision of Gen. Eisenhower.

The whole thing is to be formal
