ROOSEVELT IS
NOT GOING TO
GO TO LONDON
Reports of a Dash Across
the Atlantic Denied
PULPIT HARBOR, Maine, June
24.—Elated at the progress of the
London World Economic Confer
ence, President Roosevelt pulled in
to the harbor here last night. He
denied frequent reports that he is
planning a quick dash to London.
A formal statement issued by
Secretary Stephen T. Early said the
President plans to return to Wash
ington after his present vacation
cruise and "at no time has the
: President considered going to Lon
Idon as he sees no reason whatso
ever to do so now. Reports from
London received during the last 24
hours have been altogether satis
factory to the President."
The London dash stories were
published as supposed authentic
findings of some of the New York
newspapers.

Compare American Presi
dent to Chancellor
of Exchequer
LONDON, June 24—Two mem
bers of Parliament, a Conservative
and Laborite, joined yesterday in
praising President Roosevelt’s ac
tion in comparing Chancellor of
the Exchequer Neville Chamberlain
unfavorably with the American
Chief Executive.
"The people of Great Britain
would rather have Franklin D.
Roosevelt than Chancellor of Ex
chequer Chamberlain," said Labor
member J. C. Wedgwood.
“When Roosevelt said he was
going to raise prices in the world,
it was -believed he would do so, but
when Chamberlain said he hoped
prices would be raised, nobody be
lieved he would do so by his pol
icy,” said Robert Boothby, Con
servative.
Chamberlain was present during
the praise sounded for the Ameri
can President.
