San Francisco Bay Area San Francisco, the seat of the United Nations Conference on International Organization, is centrally located on the west coast of the United States at a point where the coastal range of mountains is broken to give access to the great central valley of California. The city occupies the tip of the southern thumb of the twin peninsulas which enclose the great land-locked harbor of San Francisco Bay. The Golden Gate channel sepa- rates the two peninsulas and connects the waters of the bay with the Pacific Ocean. The hills upon which the city is built form the western rim of a huge bowl known as the Bay Area. The shores of the bay are dotted with wharves, warehouses, shipyards, and in- dustrial areas. Above, on the lower slopes and foothills of the mountains, are the cities and residential areas of metro- politan San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda, San Leandro, Hayward, Sausalito, Petaluma, San Rafael, San An- selmo, Vallejo, Richmond, San Jose, Santa Clara, Palo Alto, Redwood City, San Carlos, Belmont, San Mateo, Burlingame, South San Francisco, and San Bruno. The city is almost entirely surrounded by water and was formerly served principally by ferries. In recent years, how- ever, it has been linked with the mainland on the north by the Golden Gate Bridge and on the east by the 8-mile stretch of the Oakland Bridge. The population of the city proper is only three-fourths of a million persons, but the number in 1 the entire Bay Area is more than double this figure. The whole area now forms one unified metropolitan community. San Francisco is a great financial, banking, marketing, com- munication, and transportation center of the west coast. The Federal Government and most large commercial and indus- trial concerns have branch offices here. The city is also a western headquarters for the Army and Navy. The Bay Area is a terminus for 3 transcontinental railway systems and in normal times a port of call for 177 steamship lines. The nor- mal industrial activities have been tremendously stimulated in recent years by defense manufacturing and use as a supply base for the war in the Pacific. 2. Climale San Francisco is favored with a mild yet invigorating climate which is "warm in winter, cool in summer." The average yearly temperature is 56 degrees with a normal variation of only 10 to 20 degrees between winter and summer. The climate is so evenly balanced that all types of vegetation, in- cluding many delicate tropical plants, flourish throughout the year. The temperature during late April and May, when the Con- ference will be in session, averages about 57 degrees. The nights are cool and a light topcoat will be needed. April is normally very clear and there is practically no rain from May to the end of October. 3. Scenic and Other Attractions The country around San Francisco is extremely varied. Within a few miles of the city are lakes, mountains, seashore, forests and open range land, orchards, vineyards, and rich farm land. Only a few hours distant are Yosemite Valley, Mt. Shasta, Mt. Lassen, Sequoia, and General Grant National Parks, the snow-covered peaks of the High Sierras, Lake Tahoe, Mon- terey Bay and Peninsula, the Valley of the Moon, the Santa Clara, San Joaquin, and Sacramento Valleys, and many other scenic attractions. Separate booklets describing San Francisco and the surrounding area are available from the chamber of commerce and other local organizations.

Rules of Procedure The Conference, as an autonomous body, will establish its own organization and adopt its own rules of procedure at one of the early plenary sessions. The provisional rules of pro- cedure, formulated by the United States after discussion with the other sponsoring powers, will guide the Conference until the permanent rules are adopted. 3. The Conference Agenda The purpose of the Conference, as announced in the invita- tion to the participating countries, is to discuss the Dumbarton Oaks Proposals and to develop a Charter for a United Nations Organization. 4. Officers of the Conference ^ In accordance with international practice, the United States, as host Government, designates the Temporary President and furnishes the Secretariat of the Conference. The President of the United States has named Secretary of State Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., as Temporary President and Mr. Alger Hiss as Secretary General. Mr. Stettinius will preside until the Permanent President is elected by the Conference. This election will probably take place at the second or third plenary session. The Conference will also elect the chairmen of commissions and of the various committees. 5. The General Committees One of the principal items of business at the opening plenary session is the appointment of certain basic committees which are essential to the work of the Conference. The committees set forth in the provisional rules of procedure are : the Steering Committee, Executive Committee, Coordination Committee, and the Credentials Committee. 11 6. Commissions and Technical Committees In order to facilitate its deliberations, the Conference will organize itself into several commissions and subordinate tech- nical committees to consider the principal items of the Dum- barton Oaks Proposals, which are : General Provisions Preamble, Purposes, and Principles Membership and General (including Secretariat and Amendments) The General Assembly Structure and Procedures Political and Security Functions Economic and Social Cooperation Trusteeship System The Security Council Structure and Procedures Peaceful Settlement Enforcement Arrangements Regional Arrangements Judicial Organization International Court of Justice Legal Problems 7. Conference Procedure After the commissions and their respective committees have laid down the basic principles on the various subjects of their agenda and have agreed on draft texts incorporating these prin- ciples, they will submit their recommendations to the Confer- ence. The latter, sitting in plenary session, will then consider the final text. If the Charter is approved by the Conference, its ratification by a specified number of participating governments will bring the new international Organization into being. 12 PART IV SPECIAL INFORMATION FOR THE DELEGATIONS 1.
