Geneva, October 7, 1936—9 p.m.
[Received October 7—1:55 p.m.]

1078. The Third Committee this afternoon approved a report²² to the Assembly which summarized its deliberations and states that “while the Committee expresses the hope that there will be an early meeting of the Bureau, it nevertheless realizes that the date of convocation and the result of its discussions depend very largely on the important negotiations which are so frequently mentioned at present.”

A resolution was also prepared for the Assembly’s approval welcoming the initiative taken by the French with a view to the early convocation of the Bureau.²³
