Commonwealth Relations Secretary, Mr. Patrick Gordon-Walker, said that he was very doubtful whether such a conference would be necessary at the moment as methods of con- sultation are different from what they were when the Ottawa conference was held.

Britain's estimated Marshall Aid allocation for 1950-5lowas cut today by $129,000,000.
