254. Davis, Wilson and I had 6-hour conference with Simon, Londonderry, Samuel and Cadogan. We defined our common position rather exhaustively on land armament but in the air and navy the discussion was inconclusive. The British and ourselves are meeting the French tomorrow afternoon where a good deal of the same ground must be covered after which we will report in greater detail but in the meantime do not believe that there are any points in which we need specific instruction at the moment.
