Sir Eric says that Mr. Sawada to-day handed to the Secretary-General a Note requesting a delay in the examination (not the publication) of the Lytton Report, pending the receipt of Japan's considered observations thereon and the arrival at Geneva of a special Japanese representative.

In the opinion of the Japanese Government, the pre- paration of Japan's statement and the arrival of a special envoy at Geneva would occupy a period of six weeks from the date of the receipt of the Report.-Reuter.
