CRITICAL MEETING OF W.E.C. BUREAU

COMPROMISE LIKELY

LONDON, JULY 10.

AN AIR OF TENSE EXPECTANCY PREVAILS ON THE EVE OF THE MEETING WHICH WILL DECIDE THE FATE OF THE WORLD ECONOMIC CONFERENCE. BEHIND THE SCENES A TENSE STRUGGLE IS GOING ON BETWEEN THE GOLD BLOC AND THE NON-GOLD COUNTRIES.

The efforts to gain the support of the Soviet, Mexico and Hungary for the rival policies has provided the animating week-end feature pending to-day's critical meeting of the Bureau.

These are the countries which abstained from vot- ing when the motion for the adjournment of the con- ference was only evaded by a vote of seven to six, but although their support will be the deciding factor, there are no indications that it has been obtained by either side.
