10 the Allies and to the liberated
nations against the use of power
politics"
The President warned that the
American people after the ] a s
war gave LID the hope of grad
ually achieving a better peace be-
cause we had not the courage to
fulfill our responsibilities in an
admittedly imperfect world
I'VE must not let that happen
again or we shall follow the
same tragic road again - the
road 10 a third world war"
Mr., Roosevelt reiterated his
faith in the Atlantic Charter. He
admitted the statements Of prin-
