France, have been mentioned for the assignment Mr. Roosevelt said he was keeping in close touch with domestic affairs through Washington. and was spending many hours each day on his mail and reading departmental reports The American delegation to the Nine-Power conference probable will sail for Europe aboard the United States liner Washington Oct. 20. The conference may meet about the end of October.

Long-Road Policy Seen

State Department officials have warned against too great expectations from the coiiference in the way of an immediate settlement of the

Sino-Japanese war. They have hint- |

ed the United States will follow a

long-road policy, and not an inter- |

national short-cut to world peace. State Department officials are believed to prefer a “quarantine” of Japan with purely moral suasion, such as a consolidation of world opinion on condemning Japan's aggression in China. Such action would not be official by any government, and would not make any vulnerable to official protest by the Japanese Government,

Vatican Denies Supporting Japan

VATICAN CITY, Oct. 15 (U. P)). —The Most Rev. Joseph Pizzardo, undersecretary of the Congregation

for Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Af- |

long contoday

fairs, announced after a ference with Pope Pius XI that reports of a decision by Vatican to support Japan in the Chinese war are “false and can be vigorously denied.” Msgr. Pizzardo. who several hours with the Pope at Cas-

tel Gandolfo, Papal summer palace. |

said there was nothing further to

say regarding the reports circulating |

in the United States.

The Congregation of Extraordin- | concerns |

ary Ecclesiastical Affairs itself only with matters submitted by the Pope through the Vatican secretary of state, especially those connected with civil matters and concordats. The Holy See has been, and re-

mains, strictly neutral in the con- |

flict between Japan and China, and resents dispatches circulated abroad that the Vatican has structed its missionaries in the Far East to take sides with Japan against communism in China, it was stated.

The Holy See is opposed to com- |

munism, and will combat Communist tendencies, but no memorandum was sent to the Far East advising Vatican representatives to support Japan.

Chamberlain talked of the “good old days when Britain was an impregnable island, possessing the only | fleet of consequence in the world. | “Yet I doubt if our foreign policy was ever less aggressive than it is today,” he said. “If we are striving | as we are night and day to rearm | ourselves it is not as if we had sin- | ister designs on anybody else.

status—the new councillors will hold |

their first meeting Tuesday at the residence of Prince Fumimaro Konoye, the premier. Their appointment, with the sanction of the privy council an” the Emperor, was a recognition of the fight that Japan faces not only against an aroused China but against nations of the world, in pushing the policy which her leaders say she will carry through at whatever cost.

The council's real status is shown |

clearly. Nominally it will receive reports from the Cabinet and “submit” recomendations. Actually its words will be the supreme law, it is

indicated. It is to deal officially ith |

all matters concerning finance, economics, diplomacy and “post-war management.” Army and Navy men, who are responsible solely to the Emperor, will reserve to themselves as usual matters of purely military policy.

Japan May Attend Parley

Coincident with the appointment of the council a Foreign Office spokesman made the surprising intimation that Japan might attend the Nine-Power Treaty conference which is to be held at Brussels late this month to consider action in the Chinese-Japanese crisis. From the start it had been taken for granted that Japan would boycott a conference which apparently could only condemn her as an aggressor against China. Today the Foreign Office spokes-

man said the Government had so far received no official invitation to

the Conference,
