IU. s. Sure Of Main !Objectives At Conference
SAN FRANCISCO May 28-tR)

SAN FRANCISCO May 28-tR) President Truman and Secre- tary Stettinius apparently are sure of their main objectives at the United Nations conference and are now beginning to turn tre American foreign policy toward more decisive role in world af- fairs. Secretary Stettinius will make a major radio speech to the American people and the armed forces overseas at 7:30 pm. PVT. tonight. It is begged on a review of the work of the security conference.
 In the conference itself only one major issue remains: that of the veto voting formula by which the great powers intend to control the projected world security coun- cil, and it's machinery designed to preserve peace. United States, Russian, British and Chinese lead CTS worked through the week end on statement of twelve to fif- teen paragraphs. It intended to tell the nations exactly how the veto will work and give assur- anceS that it will not be abused, and declared it will not prevent any aggrieved or threatened na- ton from appealing to the coun- cil.

 MT. Hoover emerged smilingly from his fifty minute talk with President Truman and said he was sorry to disappoint the re- portcrs but "the President of the United States had right to make his statements, and there is no right for visitor to say anything
