President Roosevelt “remains an understanding and sympathetic friend of Zionism,” Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Chairman of the American Zionist Emergency Council, said today after meeting with the President for fifteen minutes. Dr. Wise said he “had a most heartening talk with the President.”

President Roosevelt is scheduled to leave soon for a meeting with Stalin and Churchill and it is assumed here that Dr. Wise discussed with the President the part which the Palestine issue will play during the forthcoming conferences. It is understood that Dr. Wise left with the President a memorandum on the Palestine question.
