(A C.

their duty to reserve the possibility” ? of the United States having three votes. The White House announcement last week said that if the San Francisco conference agreed to let the Soviet republics have three votes, then the United States “would ask” for three votes also. Participation of the White Russian and Ukrainian republics in the San Francisco conference was not agreed to at Yalta, Stettinius said.
In questioning afterward he implied that that would be a question for the conference itself to ecide, emphasizing that this would be a conference of united nations. ‘Initial Members’
He did, in contrast tor the White House statement, say that the Russlan proposal was that those two Soviet republics, as well as the Soviet Union as a whole, be “initial members” of the international organization. “This was a question for the united nations assembled at Sap Francisco to consider and decide,” the statement said.
Stettinius said in his statement that the only decisions reached at| Yalta and not made public in the! conference communique related to initial membership in the international organization when it meets, and to territorial trusteeship.
On the trusteeship issue, the statement said, it appeared desirable at Yalta that.the Big Five should. “endeavor to formulate proposals for submissions to the San Francisco conference.”
