Geneva messages sinte Senor de Madariaga has been requested by his colleagues to submit the report to the Ethiopian and Italian de- legations to-morrow afternoon.
Examination of the report by the parties to the dispute it is anticipated will take several days.
The British delegation is under- stood to be satisfied with the pro- gross of the Committee's work and that its proposats are in harmony with the spirit of the Covenant and do not infringe the political sovereignty of the Ethiopian Gov- ernment. inpe is expressed at Geneva that a proposal will be found acceptable by both the Ethiopian and Hallan Govern- ments as a basis of settlement of differences which has arisen be tween them.-British Wireless,
