FDR Will Meet
By th Associated Prea :
Signs multiplied last night that
President Roosevelt and Prime
Minister Churchill are arranging
another ; meeting soon to discuss
the. .future . of rapidly-weakening
Germany, and plans to step . up
the 'war against Japan. r-- ;
,.In Washington, the belief was
general that the swift allied in-
' roads ; against - the German de
fenses in Europe have spurred
'plans, for the meeting. T Military
and naval men take the view, it
was learned, that while German
resistance can conceivably be pro-
longed, it may collapse at any
time. . :
This poses, not. only - the ques
tion of the armistice terms to be
. imposed on the reich, b u t t h e j i
broad iuDt oi now to image;
the gap between the end of the j
war in Europe and the proposed
establishment of a world agency
to keep the peace. ;
American officials, have sug
gested that the existing Europ
ean advisory commission, with its
Russian - American - British
membership, be broadened to
cope with problems, arising out
of possible internal revolutions
in some European states stnd "lit
tle wars" over territory. -
.- The , British' Broadcasting; cor
poration said in a broadcast to
Europi yesterday, that political
- correspondents expected Boose
velt and Churchill to meet soon
concerning . German armistice
terms - and "how to hasten the
downfall of 'Japan." ;
This, followed President Roose
velt's news conference remark
Tuesday, that everyone knew an
other meeting with, the "prime
minister was to take place. He
added that ' the- time and place
were too intimate to reveal. It
. will be the eleventh, session be-
. tween the two leaders.
