Hamilton, Bermuda, Dec. 3.
Sir Winston Churchill will have some distinct diplomatic and political advantages over his United States and French colleagues at this week's Big Three conference here.
First, under the terms of protocol, the British Prime Minister is host of the conference in this British territory and will presumably be elected Chairman at the opening session of the conference
