BY SIGRID ARNE

SAN FRANCISCO, April 81
Up Right now Mr.. Molotov
from Moscow is the Clark Gable
of the Conference show.
Curb stone crowds are un-
abashed about showing when
Molotov shows up.
And this, despite the fact that
he threw fire-cracker into the
first working session of the Con-
ference when he blocked the
move to make the handsome
American Secretary of State, Ed
ward Stettinius, perm n e n t
chairman of the Conference.
Molotov is a stocky man with
gray mustache, balding head,
and a determined walk that
shows off the fashionable flop
to his trousers which don't look
as though they were cut in some
Russian shop. There's a Bond
street flare about his get-up.
He was the only representative

said, "but the boys who fly them

Pilots sit under a teardrop SAN

carried in the nose of each plane
as it sweeps inaccurately toward
a target.
While the baka bombs attain
high speeds they are difficult to
maneuver, and ships dodge them
by evasive action.
Nimitz said full study of
their effectiveness has not been
possible since the japanese thus
far have used them in limited
numbers.

U. 5. Delegates

Russian Snub
Mo'otov Rejects
Stettinius as
Peace Choirmon
BY JACK BELL

SAN FRANCISCO, April q
Up - Puzzlement and anger
spread through the American
delegation today over the Rus
sian rundown of Secretary Of
State Stettinius as chairman of
the United Nations conference.
Those members inclined to be
outspoken show signs of sore
ness under the diplomatic re-
quirement of restraint in such
situation.
The craftsmanship matter
came up for talk at 2-hour SEES
sion of the delegation late last
night. The upshot was a decision
for Senators Vandenberg Or
Mich) and Connally (D-Tex) to
! attend today's Steering Com
mittee meeting at which the is
sue is to be settled.
SEE NO COMPROMISE
No compromise was sighted in
conferred with some Russians,
not including Molotov, in an at
tempt to reach agreement.
BY custom, the Foreign Min
lister of the country in which a
conference is held presides over
it. That's one of those things
that diplomats the world over
accept as routine. But the Rus
slams differed.
'I'm glad the story is out"
one U S. delegate told report
er. 81 think we ought to blast
this situation apart and find out
what's behind it,"
Another said he felt that
Molotov must have come here
with instructions from Premier
Stain to insist upon thorough
recognition of Russia as an
equal in the meetings leader
ship and had used this means of
letting the delegates know it.
T.Iolotov spoke of the nations
fighting the war and their
prestige"
CITE PROMISES
But others recalled Molotov's
promises at yesterdays confer
ence session, and also at a
meeting with newsmen, of COM
plete Soviet cooperation in
forming a workable peace
keeping organization.
They didn't have the answer
to that one.
But they took some encour-
agement in Molotov's statement
that the Russians are not oppos-
ed to fundamental amendments
in the formula for international
organization worked out at
Dumbarton Oaks in Washing
ton last year.
The delegation agreed yester.
day to propose means by whicr
the world organization might
change its charter in much the
same way the United States can
amend its constitution.

PLANES TO TRAVEL 2 MILES A MINUTE

Details of a program for the production of the Rainbow, the worlds fastest transport plane, which will cruise through the stratosphere at nearly seven miles a minute, were completed by the Republic Aviation Corp, and Pan American World Airways in New York recently, it was. learned at the airline's Seattle office.
 The new Republic built Clip pers called Rainbows, could fly from Seattle to Tokyo in 12 hours, over Pan Americans proposed Seattle-Orient route via Alaska, J. V. Roscoe, assistant manager at Seattle, said. Shanghai, Canton and Manila-two weeks distance by fast boat from Seattle-would be less than IT hours, Rainbow flying time, from Seattle.
 While the guaranteed cruising speed of these new Clippers, big brothers of the famous Republic built PAY Thunderbolts, is 400 miles an hour, their high speed will exceed 450 miles an hour. De- livery of the first six planes now on order by Pan American is ex- pected to start within P months
 With a cylindrical fuselage, fully pressurized for flying in comfort in the stratosphere, pas sengers will travel in air cabins for above the weather, at 40,000 feet cruising levels. Equipped for long trans-continental and trans oceanic schedules, the new Rain bow-type Clippers will have ac- commodations for 40 passengers and crew, in addition to mail and cargo. Man will travel faster than he has ever travelled before, ex- cept in fighter planes.
 On domestic routes for which Pan American has applied, these super-fast Clippers could fly from New York to Seattle in little over six hours, on nonstop express schedules. They will fly from New York to London in 9 hours On Pan Americans pioneer trans Pacific routes, the Clippers could cross from San Francisco to Cal cutta, India in Is hours.
 Just short of 100 feet in length with a wing span of 129 feet the Rainbow will have gross weight of 113,25O pounds. It will be pow cred by four turbo-super- charged

Big Postwar Demand
f..
For Home Appliances
Indicated in Survey

An unprecedented demand for
household appliances here after the
war is indicated in the survey under
taken for the Washington Board Of
Trade by Opinion Research Corpora
ton. ~
The figures indicate that boom
in this phase OF business will reach
tremendous proportions.
At least 1900 refrigerators will
be sought, an increase of $50 per
cent over the prewar average and
$4,000 persons will seek vacuum
cleaners, an increase of 375 per cent.
11,ooo Want Ranges.
1t was also found that about II 900
consumers will purchase ranges,
which is a 800 per cent increase
over the annual average from 1899
to 1941. In compiling these figures
no consideration was given to those
who plan new homes but have given
no thought to the stove to be placed
IN the kitchen. Also no allowance
was made for returning servicemen
who will set up homes Of their own.
But 1t is in the washing machine
market that the greatest activity
will be found. Whether rejecting
the shortage of domestic help or the
natural wear and tear which have
worn many existing machines down
to a low point Of efficiency, the pre-
diction is that 5000 persons will try
to purchase this type of equipment.
This demand will be an increase of
500 per cent over the prewar period.
A great demand for other forms Of
equipment and furniture also is
indicated. It is expected that Sc, 600
radio or radio-phonograph instru-
ments will be sought. The survey
also showed that rugs and carpets
will attract $4,000 purchases and
1880 postwar residents will be in
the market for sewing machines.
Furniture Market.
In the furniture market. $4,000
will purchase living room furniture,
the figures show. a total Of $4,000
persons win buy bedroom furniture
and 5000 plan to get dining room
furniture and 1900 are interested
in acquiring miscellaneous types.
Automatic dishwashers will be In
lowest demand, only 1000 persons
indicating an intention to buy this
form Of equipment. Only 5000
anticipate installing new water
heaters. ~
All these figures were obtained
