Brussels, January 6. -Belgian Congo tin producers to- day held a meeting to discuss the International Tin Committee's oyertures, and decided that owing to the rapid increase in Congo production Belgium would be un- able to undertake the agreement for a longer period than two years, whereas the currency of the pre- sent scheme was three years.
Moreover, the Committee had so far offered a quota of 10,000 and 12,000 tons for 1934 and 1935 res- pectively, while Belgium requires 17,000 tons-Reuter.
