His name appears on no announced

Stettinius Praises
Soviet Farley Role;
Asks Stronger Ties
Allied Unity Is Vitol
To Peace, He Declares
In Radio Address
BY GOULD LINCOLN,
Star Staff Correspondent

SAN FRANCISCO, May 90
Russia's cooperation in the
United Nations Conference was
lauded by Secretary of State
Stettinius last night in a radio
address stressing the need for
ever closer relations among the
wartime Allies to assure future
peace.
"The primary objective of United
States foreign policy" he declared,
lis to continue and strengthen in
the period of peace that wartime
solidarity which has made possible
the defeat of Germany"
This is as true of our relations
with the Soviet Onion as 1t Is Of
our relations with Great Britain.
China and France" he added.
His apparent purpose was to
knock down the idea advanced in
some quarters that the United
States and Russia inevitably will
find themselves in disagreement on
many subjects, and finally at war.
Broader Scope Sought.
Declaring that collaboration In
war has demonstrated that differ
ences among the Allies can be ad-
justed, he said ''it is our purpose to
broaden the scope of our agree
ment and to reach common under
standing on those matters where it
does not yet exist" and added
pointedly:
I'VE have the right to expect the
same spirit and the same approach
on the part of our great Allies"
Coupling review of accomplish
ments at the United Nations Con-
ference here with a new outline of
American foreign policy, Mr.. Stet-
tinius pointed out that this coun-
try's interests extend to the whole
world"
I'VE must maintain those interests
IN our relations with the other great
powers he declared, "and we must
mediate between them when their
interests conflict among them
selves"
The conference today marked
time in its determination of the
voting formula for the security
council of the United Nations or
ganization, involving a controver-
sial veto power for the five perma-
nent members of the council. Not
until word has been received from
Moscow on a suggested interpreta-
ton Of the formula will any further
action be taken. This may require
several days.
"ProceduraP Matters at Issue.
The immediate issue concerns
what the "procedural matters" in
which a veto may not be exercised
by the great powers under the
Yalta formula, and whether the
veto may not be used in determining
in the future whether matter is
"procedural." Russia is represent
ed as holding out for full use of the
veto in such decisions.
The United States delegation has
reached complete agreement Oh the
Interpretation Of the voting for

Chinese are reported also willing to

Committee Rescinds Contempt
Complaint Against Reporter

when Representative Domengeaux,
Democrat, of Louisiana moved to
abandon the contempt complaint.
House leaders had told Mr.. RAN
kin privately that the contempt ci-
tation could not be sustained in q

At one point Mr.. Rankin angrily
banged his gavel into the babble Of

Use Doctors Gas Coupons.
They ordered him into the back
seat, and one Of them drove the
car through Rock Greek Park, where
the doctor was forced to surrender
his money. Then, ordering the doc
tor to lie prone in the back Of the
car, the kidnapers proceeded to
gasoline station, where they used
the physicians coupons to buy fuel.
Police were unable to say where
DR.. Lindsay had gone to obtain
the blood plasma, but apparently
it disappeared with the stolen car
as the physician was kidnapped be-
fore he re-entered the hospital.
After buying gasoline the kid
napers drove into Virginia and re-
leased the doctor near Accotink.
From there he walked to Fort Bel
voir where he boarded a bus for
Alexandria. He had no money in
his pocket, he told police, but after
explaining his predicament to the
bus driver was permitted to make
the trip on credit. As soon as he
arrived in Alexandria he informed
police there of his kidnapping and
robbery. Later Washington police
and the FBI were called in on the
case.
The stolen car is black Plymouth
coach bearing the Maryland license
number 551 1896.
Around noon today DR.. Lindsay
accompanied District police and FBI
men in car over the route the kid
napers travelled last night. They
were hopeful they might discover
the machine somewhere near the
point where the doctor was elected.
Description of Three Men.
The Police Department placed on
its teletype this description of the
three men sought in connection with
the kidnapping. It read:
mo. l. Thirty years old. Five

Smoke Rises 4 Miles
Above Yokohama

o1ANA, NAdy 40 Nl.~koupCI T VI
tress crews returning today from
their heaviest daylight raid on
Japan reported they had lighted
giant fires in the industrial section
OF Yokohama in the first B-29 strike
against Tokyo's port city.
More than $50 B-29s loosed 5000
tons of bombs in their third strike
In six days within a 20-mile radius
of the Imperial Palace.
Airmen reported smoke billowed
for 4 miles above the city and pre-
dicted destruction would rank with
that of previous highly effective fire
raids against other major japanese
industrial cities. Even the enemy's
high command conceded consider
able damage" was inflicted.
Wind Spreads Flames.
Clouds OF black smoke, such as
come from burning oil, was re-
ported pouring up from Yokohama's
highly inflammable commercial core
IN the southern end of the city,
which is the port for Tokyo and the
fifth largest city in Japan.
A strong wind appeared to be
spreading the fires through auto
motive, aircraft, shipbuilding and
rubber plants.
The great flights of Super Forts
flew through intense and accurate
antiaircraft fire to strike their tar
gets, which included most of the
city. An enemy communique said
some Of the raiders swept on north
ward to hit Tokyo and the indus
trial town of kawasaki, which lies
between the capital and the port
city.
The Japanese communique claimed
80 planes were shot out of the at
tacking force, which it placed at
some 500" B-29s and some 1907
Mustang fighters from Two Jima. It
asserted 40 others were damaged.
Light Interception.
Super Forts crews reported inter-
eeption was light and attacking air.
craft were readily driven off. The
absence of enemy fighters was at
least partly due to a 1,50O-mile
round trip flight yesterday by
Mustangs from their Two Jima bases
to make neutralizing raids on three
airfields near Tokyo, including the
Kasumigaura naval air station.
Porty-two japanese planes were
destroyed or damaged in that sweep.
The 21st Bomber Command re-
served an official estimate of damage
from today's mass raid until post
strike photographs have been
studied. But returning airmen said
fire bombs were dropped with con-
centrated precision in clear weather
and left block after block" in
flames.
Super Forts have unloaded 1l.700
tons OF fire-bombs in their last three
strikes, involving 1,500 sorties, seek
ing to paralyze the heart OF Japan's
war industry.
Carrier planes heavily attacked
Yokohama February 1917, but this
was the first B-29 mission over that
important shipping and industrial
center 18 miles south of Tokyo,
Navy pilots left an escort carrier

the entire Tokyo area in February.

PIoeser Says House
Should Stand Firm
On Expense Funds
Course Remains Uncertuin
In View of Senute's
Refusal of Allowance
By ]. A. O'LEARY.

Defending the $2,5OO-a-year
expense allowance for House
members, which the Senate yes
terday refused to extend to its
members, Representative Ploe-
ser, Republican, of Missouri to-
day declared the House item
should stand.
A member of the subcommittee
which drafted the legislative supply
bill, Mr.. Ploeser called the amend
ment "a completely honest exposi-
ton of the purpose Of the money
and of the circumstances of men,
bers in paying their ofice expenses. u
Meanwhile, it remained uncertain
whether House leaders would let the
fund stand or take any steps to re-
scind it in view of the Senate's atti-
tude. Chairman Cannon of the
House Appropriations Committee
said it could be changed only by
passage of separate resolution
since it has been approved by both
branches as part of the legislative
bill.
Phone Quota Increase Mentioned.
Mr.. Ploeser pointed out that,
while the Senate turned down the
fat allowance for expenses, its men,
bers approved an increase in their
allowable quota of long distance
telephone calls from 10 three-minute
calls to Is five-minute calls month.
He estimated this as an increase
from $3.50 to $3.50 a year per mem
Der, and pointed out that such phone
calls is one of the items House men,
bers would have to meet out of their
proposed $2,500 general expense fund,
since they have no separate long
distance telephone allowance.
He pointed out also that Senators
always have had more for clerk
nire' than House members and said
that ''is AS it should be" because
Senators have a Statewide consti-
tuency to look after.
Mr.. Ploeser emphasized that he
was not questioning any of these
Senate items, because he wants to
adhere to the practice under which
each branch regulates its own ex-
penses, but was citing them to show
that the funds allotted members of
the two branches, other than salary
have not always been the same in
the past.
Steps probably will be taken in the
House this afternoon to send the
bill to conference on other issues.
Approve Raise for Pages.
After large majority of the Sen
ators had resisted all suggestions
that they raise their own pay, they
closed the days work by voting an
increase from 81 to IS a day for the
pages who dash up and down the
aisles to run senatorial errands.
Leading the fight for the $500
expense item, Senator Overton,
Democrat, of Louisiana argued that
rulings of the Internal Revenue Bu-
reau place members of Congress at
a disadvantage by denying them the
right to deduct living expenses in
Washington, which other taxpayers
here on business may deduct, even
thought a lawmaker must retain his
domicile in the State from which
he is elected.
He found arrayed against him,
however, Majority Leader Barkley,
Senator Lucas, Democrat, of Illinois,
Senator Morse, Republican, of Ore
gon and others in day-long debate.
