COMMITTEE OF NINETEEN.

After a very brief discussion, the Committee de- cided to adjourn until Wednesday. Lasting approx- imately an hour, the meeting was largely devoted to hearing Sir Eric Drummond's explanation of the steps taken since the last meeting to devise a formula of con- ciliation acceptable to both parties.

The Committee expect to be in possession of the Japanese views when they meet again on Wednesday. The Chinese have very little to say at the moment, but there are indications that they will not accept a com- promise formula acceptable to Japan without a stiff struggle.
