Certainly the supreme council
will sit again-but il is out OF
breath. We ;oresee, its complete
disappearance in the near future,
and perhaps it won't be, a. bad thing,
aIer all. The delegates have af-
filmed their willingness to main
tain accord among the allies, but
in order to maintain harmony Il
would probably he a useful thing
to resort to some other organiEa-

Practically the only consolation
France has had out of the weeks
session was the reversal by the
finance ministers of the Spa agree
ment under which, German coal de-
iivered by way of Rotterdam ana
Antwerp was to have been charged
to France at the English price.
Such coal is in the future to be
charged at the German price, which
is much lower.
