I STERN REBUKE TO PEACE PACT FOES (Continued irom page One) his speech as his strongest exposi tion of American foreign policy. He termed his administration unequlvo cably opposed to Intervention. He flayed those world leaders he said were overriding the wishes of the people they represented In throwing bars across the path of a peace ac cord. Leaders at Fault The danger to world peace," he said, "lies not In the world popula tion but In the political leaders of the population." The president outlined again his plan under which ha would have every nation agree to eliminate over period of years, by progressive steps, all offensive weapons; at the same time Joining In a universal dec laration that no nation would allow Its armed forces to cross lis own borders. 'It Is clear, of course," he said, that no such general agreement for the elimination of aggression and of tihe weapons of offensive warfare would be of any value to the world unless every nation, without excep tion, entered Into the agreement by solemn obligation. Balky Nations On Spot If then such an agreement was signed by a great majority of the nations on the definite condition that It would go Into effect only when signed by all the nations, It would bea comparatively easy mat ter to determine which nations In this enlightened time are willing to go on record as belonging to the small minority of mankind which still believes In the use of the sword for Invasion of an attack upon their neighbors." Mr. Roosevelt addel had re served this suggestion uudl he was assured "after a hard-headed prac tical survey" that the overwhelming majority of the population botfi In the United States and throughout the world would subscribe to such a fundamental objective.

In praising the work and Ideals of Wood row Wilson, under whom he first came Into national politics as assistant secretary of the navy dur ing the war, Mr. Roosevelt said It was but an extension of the former president's "chsllenge" that the present generation proposes that "war by government shall b chang ed to peace by peoples." tiecrrtary Hull Lauded The chief executive spoke briefly i on this country's Latin-American policy, declaring thai much credit' for the "fine" success of the Monte video conference belonged to Secre-I tary Hull.
