The article focuses on the World Economic Conference in which the statesmen of the world would participate. The U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt sent over a delegation that with the exception of one or two members was third-rate. This delegation, so far as can be learned, went to London, England with no clear instructions and no positive program of any kind. It was not only divided internally, but it made no attempt to conceal its division. When the delegation seemed on the verge of a minor agreement, that agreement was promptly repudiated by the President.
