IF OTHER COUNTRIES DECIDE TO MAKE THE EXPERIMENT THEY MAY DO SO, BUT BRI- TAIN IS NOT INTERESTED AND WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN FURTHER DISCUSSIONS, FOR AN INTERNATIONAL POLICY OF PUBLIC WORKS OR FOR THE PROVISION OF MONEY FOR OTHER COUNTRIES TO EMBARK ON SUCH SCHEMES.

Thus plainly and flatly did Britain oppose the French resolution on the question of public works, which is strongly endorsed by the I.L.O.

Mr. Walter Runciman pointed out that Britain had spent £100,000,000 on such schemes in recent years and does not intend to repeat the expensive experiment.

Dr. Colijn, the chairman, decided to report to the Bureau that a sub-commission should be appointed when the Monetary Commission is able to appoint half the members. This means adjournment sine die.
