POWERS IN COMPLETE AGREEMENT

London, July 23.

The three-power conference, attended by British, French and Belgian representatives, to consider problems affecting the Locarno signatories, lasted only twelve hours and is understood to have ended in complete agree- ment by all sides to the text of a communique to be presented jointly to Germany and Italy.

The communique, will constitute an invitation to Germany and Italy to join the other Locarno powers in conference, and will stress the hope that the invitation will be accepted, and that a date will be arranged without undue delay.

British circles point out that solidarity and sincerity were the keynotes of the day's work and the agreement is interpreted as affording a new opportunity for Europe.
