London, Jan. 15.--Communist seizure of American pro- perty in Peking has caused serious concern among top British officials, reliable sources said tonight. Meanwhile considerable haze surrounded the recent British offer extending recognition to the Chinese Communists.

The subjects ranged from the political and economic situations (present and possible future) in Indonesia, Malaya, Slam, Burma, Indo-China and China—a formid- able array of problems.
