The warning came from the tariff working party which had been set up to pave the way for tariff negotiations which have been in progress in Geneva since early April. Reports, describing the situation In the turi negotiations as far from satisfactory, urged the spooling up of talks if the target dates of Sept. 10 and 13, respec. tively, were to be met.

The warning came as the con- ference secretariat put out an of the termination of 22 tariff nego letal progress report announcing liations, with 10 mora nearing completion.

The report disclosed

that 83 negotiations, representing 90 per-
