Chinese For eign Minister T. V. Soong has left for a brief stay in Wash ington but will be personally represented at the session. France has made no secret of the fact that she is miffed at not being included before and at being excluded from the Dum barton Oaks conference where the proposals for a world organiza tion were drawn up. Even after that conference, however, she re jected an invitation to sponsor the current assembly jointly with the U. S., Britain, Russia and China. Conference officials meanwhile planned an early plenary session to seat the delegates from the Ukraine and White Russia who arrived by plane yesterday. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Di mitri Z. Manulski, and White Russian Foreign Minister Kuzma Kiselev were met at the airport by Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Mclotov with whom they immed iately began conferences. After a day of rest, all dele gates got down to the unexciting and hard ta?k of trying to analyze the hundreds of amendments sub mitted and to begin drafting the final document for a world or ganization. Six of the 12 techni cal committees were scheduled to meet in the onlv official session on the conference today. But behind the scenes, the un official meetings will continue. Most of them now will be design ed to line up the smaller coun tries behind the many amend ments submitted by the Big Four jointly and two important ones THE JOURNAL'S Daily Pattern rv vmi vv Most Soldiers Overseas Since 1943 Discharged With the Coming of V-E Day The Veterans of Much Service May Be Released From Service ALLEY OOP By V. T. Hamlin Washington (U.R) Military observers here believed today that most soldiers who went overseas before or during the early 1943 stand a pretty good chance of geing discharged after V-E Day. The real situation won't be known until the army's point sys tem is made public. Men will re ceive points based on length and type of service, wounds and me dals and dependency. Those with the most points will be the ones selected fr dismissal if they're not essential to the war with Ja pan. Here are a few clues to guide GFs and their families in sizing up the situation as far a length of service goes. At the start of 1943 there were about 1,500,000 solders overseas. Since the army expects there will be more than 1,300,000 men dis charged in a year's time under the point system, it seems reason able to believe that most soldiers with overseas experience who France during 'orer.ee to a zy amend- the .-,! copt Study of the 30-cdd i ments jointly sponsored by bnr rowers showed tnat tney oo French Foreign Minister Georg-: viously were designed to meet es Bidault was invited to his in-! isues rai?ed in the flood of itial meeting with heads of the' awerdments submitted bv the American, British, Russian rnd j oi2V nations.

So it would seem a good many who got overseas during the first part of 1943 should be in line.
