China’s Delegation Would Pro

Conference If The British
Interpretation la Adopted;
• Other Important Matters To
Como Up.
Washington, Nov. 24.—The Far
Eastern negotiations, complicated by
a disagreement over the meaning of
> the four general principles already
adopted, will again become the live
issue of the ■ moment conference
when tt resume^ vtrk tomorrow
after tha Thanksgiving holiday. How
seats the divergence of ticw, over
application of tha four principles
might become, was problematical to
night, hat the Chinese, in particular
seemed to regard it as a fundamental
obstacle to a complete sgrcc
agreament regarding the statu* af
China. Borne ofleials ef the Chinees
delegation oven went so far as to say
that there would be nothing left for
thorn but withdrawal from the con
ference should en interpretation ad
vented in British quarters receive the
fell approval of the powers.
Will Prevent Impasse
The opinion held with apparent un
animity by the delegates of all tha
aatloaa concerned, however, was that
the issue would be so handled at to
preclude such an impasse for tha
present, at lease It was pointed out
that the views at which the Chinese
took offcnm were delineated by a
British spokesman oeUide the con
ference itaelf and so. far have not
had the formal endorsement even of
the Britleh delegation. These views
wars, briefly, that the "open door’
policy defined by the four principles
Inciteded Cbtnsse acceptance of the
. consortium and tho pooling of opera
tion of railway concessions, a com
bination which the Chines* declare
would mean virtual "mtertlonalUa
Uon” of China.
Procedure Uncertain
It was uncertain tonight whether
the subject weald come before the
delegations when they mast to
