But the date of Mr. Roosevelt's departure from Washington was not disclosed in the communique announcing the conference. And a White House spokesman declined to say when the chief executive will return to Washington.

Mr. Roosevelt and members of his party arrived at Malta February 2. Mode of Travel Is Kept Secret Washington (IP) President Roosevelt's mode of travel during most of the trip to the Big Three parley is not known but with Prime Minister Churchill he flew by night from Malta to the Crimea. Photographs Bhowed him aboard an American warship at the Mediterranean isle of Malta where an Anglo-American war confer ence was held before the historic conference with Premier Stalin at Yalta, (However, an Associated Press BY JOHN M. IIIGIITOWER Washington The Big Three are in agreement today on a nine-point master plan to hasten victory over Germany, guarantee the sovereignty of Europe's liberated peoples and lay the foundations of a secure peace.

The pattern of the peace the Dumbarton Oaks proposal for the world security organization is to be placed before a United Nations conference to be called at San Francisco April 25. Those are the over-all results of President Roosevelt's eight-day meeting at an old czarist palace in the Crimea with Premier Stalin and Price Minister Churchill. By their own words it offers the world renewed hope, after Germany's unconditional surrender, for generations of international security in which men "may live out their lives in freedom from want and fear." The dark curtains of secrecy were drawn from the conference late yesterday. This revealed that the Iiig Three had agreed not only on mighty new blows to crush naziism and permanently disarm Germany, but also on several pieces of specific peace machinery to guarantee independence and self-determination to the small countries of Europe. A formula for creating a new government in Foland, which will be acceptable to all three powers, is included.

The three leaders apparently compromised the split between the United States and Russia over the voting rights of great powers in the proposed Dumbarton Oaks security plan. This cleared the way for the United Nations conference and they decided to call it for San Francisco on April 25. That is the date by which Russia must denounce her non-aggression treaty with Japan if it is not to run for another five years. Washington (5) Congress generally greeted results of the Crimean conference with acclaim. These results seemed, temporarily at least, to satisfy most of the divergent congressional viewpoints on foreign policy.

And from outside the halls of congress came an endorsement from former President Herbert Hoover who called the agreement a "strong foundation on which to rebuild the world." "I believe it comprises a strong foundation on which to rebuild the world," Hoover said in New York last night. "If the agreements, promises and ideals expressed shall be carried out, it will open a great hope to the world. It is fitting it should have been issued to the world on the birthday of Abraham Lincoln." LaFollette Comment Senator LaFollette a foreign relations committee member critical of most administration actions in the international field, said the "Crimean charter" was Commander Norman M.

Good Work Basis Chairman Bloom of the house foreign affairs committee said: "There is a reaffirmation of the Atlantic charter we've got a pretty good basis to work from." Chairman May (D-Ky.) of the house military committee hailed the pledge of destruction for German military strength as meeting "dei mands of the people throughout the world." Senator, White of Maine, the Republican leader, thought "a great work has been done."

The Roosevelt-Churchill-Stalin conference, O'Konski said, "represents a victory for Goeb-bels." He termed the Crimean communique "a stab in the back to freedom a stab in the back to the most freedom-loving people, the Pole3, who have done more to crush Nazism than any other nation on earth."

The decisions which were reported fall into three main categories and may be summed up thus: Defeating, Pacifying Germany Military plans British, American and Russian high commands sat down together for the first time and planned in detail "the timing, scope and coordination of new and even more powerful blows" to crush the enemy. The staffs will continue to meet when necessary. "The German people," it was said, "will only make the cost of their defeat heavier to themselves by attempting to continue a hopeless resistance." Occupation and control-rFrance was asked to make a fourth power in the control of post-war Germany with the promise that the country would be split into four occupation zones, instead of three, end ruled by a control commission of the four supreme commanders in Berlin. In addition to having their armies disarmed and demobilized and Naziism and militarism wiped out, the Ger kfr FDR, CHURCHILL IN CRIMEA-President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill confer during lull in Big Three conference at Y'alta, in the Crimea, Russia.

(Army Pictorial Service: NEA counted the significance of this fact, terming it a coincidence. But it raised all over again speculation that Stalin had now declared to Roosevelt and Churchill an intention to enter the war in Asia when military conditions in Europe permit. The big-three announcement, covering nine major points, was hailed at the capitol by both Republicans and Democrats. S. in New Role It commits the United States to a new and active role in the settlement of European political affairs a tew departure in American foreign policy.

To consider these problems as they arise British, Russian and American foreign secretaries are to meet every three or four months, beginning after the San Francisco conference. On his way home from the Crimea, Secretary of Stat Stettinius has gone to Moscow for a brief visit The whereabouts of Stalin, Churchill and Roosevelt were not disclosed. Presumably Stalin has returned to his urgent duties as Soviet commander in chief and the other two are homeward bound. Military decisions were made early in the conference and the staff chiefs who participated are presumably also en route after issuing the initial orders necessary to mount the promised new assaults on Germany. The Crimean agreement pledges the war and the occupation of liberated territories." Senator Byrd (D-Va.) called it "a fine start" and Senator Tydings (D-Md.) said it would "contribute immeasurably to the welfare of the entire world." Washington (JP) Here is what the Big Three have agreed to do to Germany so it can never threaten the world again: 1.

"Disarm and disband all German armed forces." 2. "Break up for all time the German general staff." 3. "Remove or destroy all German military equipment." 4. "Eliminate or control" all German industry usable for military prduction. 5.

"Impose "just and swift punishment" for all war criminals. 6. Exact "reparation in kind" for German destruction. A commission will be established in Moscow to decide what Germany should pay in goods and labor. 7.

Wipe out the navy party and "all nazi and militarist influences." Catch-All Clause Messrs. Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin added a catch-all clause, deciding to "take in harmony such other measures in Germany as may DiUWipi OO I "pretty general" in its terms and observed that "the proof of the pudding will be in the eating thereof." But Senator Vandenberg (R-Mich.) said the announcement reaffirmed "basic principles of justice" and "undertakes for the first time to implement these principles by direct action." He called "greatly encouraging" the announced plan for a three-power control commission (France may join later) to occupy Germany and force her disarmament. Vandenberg seemingly was agreeable also to the Big Three's decision that the new eastern frontier of Poland should generally follow the Curzon line.

Two miles south of the town itself, on the Black sea, stands Livadia, former summer home of Czar Nicholas II, where the conference was held. It is now a rest home for Soviet workers. matters of mutual concern.

Poland Russia is to get the eastern part of pre-war Poland, which is to be compensated by German lands to the west. The Soviet-sponsored Polish provisional regime now in control of the country will be converted into a "national unity" government by including "democratic leaders" from within Poland and from the exiled Poles in London. This leaves the exile government at London out in the cold. Britain and the United States, which now recognize it, promised to recognize the new national unity administration, but even that will be provisional until the Polish people have a chance to hold elections. Yugoslav Marshal Tito, now in control within the country, and Dr.

In their principal discussions the three-power delegations sat at a round table eight or nine feet in diameter. At each place were pencil and paper, an ash tray and a few documents.

Otherwise the table wa3 bare except for a few books. this war. Today many of these same officials are saying that the agreements reached in the Crimea are more far-reaching in accepting the principles of the Atlantic charter than they had dared hope. The agreements were worked out in conference rooms of the old white stone palace, Livadia, near the resort town of Yalta which Czar Nicholas II built as a summer resort and which Soviet Russia uses as a rest home for workers. Hour after hour the three leaders and their principal advisers, including Foreign Secretaries Stettinius, Eden and Molotov, sat around a huge white-clothed circular table and talked out problems of great power cooperation for peace.

These problems have been troubling the allied world for months. All their conclusions were not made public. The solution for the split between the United States and Russia over the issues of a great power "veto" on charges involving itself in the world security organization is to be given out only after France and China are consulted. The plans for joint military action to "shorten the war" against Germany also are unrevealed and there is no mention whatever of the war sponsoring the invitations to this meeting. Big Three agreement on the council voting issue cleared the way for the conference.
