The Conference resumed. this morning (Wednesday) at 10.30 when the Chinese delegation replied to the British statement read at the last sitting on July 19. This was followed by the Chinese delega- tion outlining two proposals in the following terms:
- Chinese Proposals.
"Since the Chinese delegation affirm that the British are in the wrong on the three points stated in our first statement, namely, (1) the Shameen-Shakee shooting (2) the Blockade of Canton by Hong- kong, and (3) the Refusal of Negotiation implied in the sqm- mary rejection of the demands formulated by the Nationalist Government Immediately after the shooting, and since the British .delegation deny being in the wrong. it is clear that this Conference must entrust a third party in the form of an impartial court of enquiry to decide the controversial issue involved. The Nationalist Government will abide by the find- ings of an impartial court of enquiry. We hope that the British delegation will take the aume 'attitude.
To End the Boycott.
"If, however, the British delega- Lion is desirous; without waiting for further enquiry, of bringing about the resumption of normal relations between Hongkong 'und the territories of the Nationalist Government (Kuangtung, Kualgsi, Human) as quickly as possible, the Chinese delegation, likewise desirous of résuming such relations at the earliest date, propose" that the burden arising from an im mediate settlement of the Anti- British Boycott be share by both parties. That burden is (1) The Chinese people who have sustained the boycott for a year muat be given adequate guarantees that in the future there will be no repeti-, tion of the action of June 23, 1926. These guarantees lie in regulating the garrisoning of the Shameen and in regulating the navigation

Serious Concessions.
"It is clear that if both sides are actuated by the same desire to arrive at an amicable settlement, both
uides must be prepared to make serious concessions."?
British Rejection,
In reply to the first proposal for an impartial court of enquiry, the British delegation stated that they would have to consult their Government. And as regards. the second proposal for a sharing of the burden arising from an im- mediate settlement of the Anti- British Boycott, they rejected the same and categorically declared that no settlement. involving the payment of compensation could be entertained by them.
The Chinese delegation there- upon proposed that, pending the holding of the suggested court of enquiry, a loan might be raised, partly through its own resources" and partly by Hongkong, to chable the Nationalist Government to meet the heavy financial burden involved in an immediate settle- ment of the Anti-British Boycott, and that the. Hongkong section of such loan would also be repaid if the court of enquiry decided favour of the British. This pro- posal was alsó rejected by the British delegation.
