Decisions Affected Thus the British political situation was having a tremendous influence on the Big Three's decisions, particularly at this time when it was understood that a number of top decisions have yet to be made. It was inconceivable, however, that Mr. Truman and Stalin did not foresee this situation when they were preparing for the conference and equally inconceivable that they anticipated any mid - conference change in the third member of their international team.

The port was bombed last July 2 by a strong B-29 force that gutted half its three-square-mile area. A communique issued at Pleet Adm. Chester W. Nimitz’ Guam headquarters three hours after the attack began said it was continuing in great strength, but gave no details of the results. He revealed that the sky battleships carried 4000 tons or more of demolition bombs in their bellies and went unescorted in blunt contempt for the Japanese air defenses.
