He said the problems facing
the conference are of "vital In

Top foreign policy and eco
nomic chiefs of the three na
tion met in a walnut-panelled
room at the state department.
Seated In leather-backed arm
chairs, they grouped about a 20
foot glass-topped table.
Arrive On Time
The three delegations arrived
at the department with split-second
timing.
First were Secretary of the
Treasury Snyder and his chief
assistant, William McChesney
Martin.
Snyder was grim-lipped as he
stepped out of his limousine. He
looked very much the banker

and dark blue tie.
Photographers were taking
their pictures when someone
shouted: "The British are com
ing." Up drove British Foreign Min
ister Bevln, accompanied by Sir
Stafford Cripps, chancellor of the
exchequer, and British Ambassa
dor Sir Oliver Franks.
A few minutes later, the Canad
ian delegation, led by Finance
Minister Douglas C. Abbott, ar
rived. A crowd of 100 or so spectators
had gathered In front of the de
partment building to see the
notables.
In the three power talks the
British leaders are expected to
seek American agreement to
speed up spending of dollars for
strategic materials such as tin
and rubber.
At the same time they want
to relax a 1946 Anglo-American
loan agreement provision so that
Britain can Increase discrimina
tion against buying American
goods.
These and other measures,
which American officials are ex
pected to receive sympathetically,
are designed to (1) increase the
flow of badly needed dollars to
Britain and 12) enable the Brit
ish to curtail the spending of the
dollars and gold they now have.
