Cablegrama have reported the Brit- ish public as amazed at the American refusal because Ambassador Child was reported as having promised Ameri- can co-operation. The truth of the case is that when the powers ap- proached Ambassador Child they told him the plan was to form a committee to study the Russian question. Mr. ment here was sympathetic with the proposal and to send more Informa- tion. Before he could do so the invitation of the powers with the specific pro- ence were cabled.
