ITALY'S "I TOLD YOU SO* Mr. Norman Davis, head of the United States delegation, in a speech, declared that nothing was lost and much had been gained with regard to a more complete knowledge of the difficulties and possibilities of the situation. He said the recess in no way meant that the problem they had been considering was to be dropped, or that their interest in a solution was in any way lessened. It made it all the more important to continue con- stantly and actively to try and bring

about the cessation of hostilities and a constructive settlement.

While they were not un- mindful of the situation which Dr. Wellington Koo had so clearly und temperately put before the meeting, he was sure the Chinese delegation would appreciate the dificulties in which the conference met.
