The announcement was made four hours after the governing board of the Pan American Union postponed action on Argentina’s request for a full consultative meeting of the 21 American for eign ministers. A formal motion by the board made the point that the forthcom ing conference without Argentina would give the other republics a chance to consider the Buenos Aires government’s request later. Argentina had asked for an op portunity to have the foreign min isters discuss the controversial as pects of her foreign policy It ;s possible that the other nations, after discussing the request again it their forthcoming meeting, may decide to invite Argentina to pre ■ lent her views. a The Argentine delegate to the - PAW American Union, Rodolfo . Gracia Arias, said after the meet ing that he had expressed concern about the decision to delay action and had pointed out that the de cision was inconsistent with the procedure which had been follow ed in former requests for consul tative meetings. He said that fur ther delay would substantially harm the system of inter-Ameri can consultation. His reference to other requests for meetings was to the three times that the United States has asked for such sessions. Those re . quests were immediately granted.

The discussions are taking place here, in a ten-day session, amongst 160 military men, economists, and educators from Australia, Canada, China, India, France, the Nether lands. the United Kingdom, the United States, Korea, Thailand, New Zealand, and the Philippines. Spokesmen here for the confer ence told the press that the manor means for preventing Japan from waging another war was consid ered to be some form of control ling Japanese industry. But there the difficulties started. An American delegate suggested that Japan’s skilled industrial workers might be scattered throughout the countries she has invaded to rebuild them. A Chinese delegate countered that, because l.uman nature is as it is, United Nations vigilance may flag, these workmen would return to Japan and then the United Na tions on'y would have succeeded in preserving the technical ability of Japanese workmen. Chinese also stated that Japan’s industrial ability will be needed after the war, since she was the industrial hub of Asia, to supply all the manufactured goods Asia usually bought from Japan, and that it might be better to preserve Japan’s industrial strength but to take its products as reparations. Chinese delegates, however, stat ed they would like the use of Jap anese labor for reconstruction.
