London, Oct. 21,

There is no surprise In lin circles at the failure of to-day's meeting of the International Tin Committee to disclose any new developments in the negotiations for # production agreement with Slam.

Seme quarters persist in their belief that an agreement will be reached, reiterating the opinion that Slam has everything to gain and nothing to lose by holding out to the bitter ·end, mibstantiating their argument by pointing out that the orier of the metal held us well after to-day's news was published.

Paris, Oct. 21.. Questioned at to-day's meeting of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, with regard to France's position if Russia withdraws from the International Non-Intervention Agreement, M.

There is another factor which, it is felt renders the position moro dimcult.

Replying to questions as to what, would happen If Madrid fell and France for Catalonia appealed to assistance, M. Delbos declared France would do nothing without consulting Great Britain and the other non- interventionist powers-Reuter.
