London, Nov. 4.
Press reactions on the Nine-Power Conference at Brussels are best summed up by the "Daily Telegreph" to-day.
The newspaper says the most robust. optimism is to believe that the "so-called Nine-Power Conference can snatch much success for its benevolent purpose from the unfavourable conditions which obstruct the path of peace."
Yesterday's speeches, the journal asserts, may have one good effect. They may persuade Japanese opinion that the conference, so far from prejudging the case, disavows the intention even to judge it, With such assurances from the delegates it is possible that Japan will be satisfied, but there is less satisfaction in them for China, the "Daily Telegraph" concludes.
Reviewing yesterday's proceedings, "The Times" special correspondent at Brussels asserts that "by common consent the speech of the day came from Dr, Wellington Koo, who put China's case with a logic, moderation and dignity which impressed all who heard him.'—Reuter,
