Roosevelt Hull Craft Strict Neutrality Policy in Entanglements
Washington April 11 President Roosevelt and Secretary Hull shaped a strict neutrality policy to keep the United States free from foreign wars. They work from an incompletely developed study at the White House with aides, and support two Senate munitions committee resolutions curbing loans to belligerents and denying passports to Americans near war zones. The Navy denies collusive bidding by shipbuilders in current programs and Hull advisers weigh an outright ban on munitions sales and contraband transport in American ships. A June letter from Clinton L. Bardo to the New York Shipbuilding Company is cited as background on collusion rumors.
