Francis B. Loomis suggests to President Roosevelt that he meet with the leaders in Europe in Azores in order to discuss a variety of topics such as foreign trade and the future relationship with China. Loomis thinks Roosevelt could accomplish more by meeting in person with the leaders than in using existing diplomatic channels, and could save the Hague Conference. Loomis suggests that the American people will feel a sense of pride in knowing their country is a “world power.”
