In the House of Commons, arising from President Coolidgs's suggestion that Anglo-American viewpoints were in accord before the Geneva Confer* ence, Mr G. ■'Locker-Lampson told Viscount Sandow that there were no conferences before the meeting, while those held during the Conference were informal and private, and were not recorded.
