Paris, Sept. 23.

This programme, the participating 16 nations de- clared, could enable Europe "to make her full contribution to the welfare of the world." The peepest was ride in 20,000 seura document which will

Mr. Bevin, after thanking the delegates of the 16 nations for their work, said: "There is a long road to travel before the economy of Europe is re-established.
