CONCESSIONS OFFERED.
Constitution of Meat Council. United Press Assn.—By TelegraphCopyright. (Received June 25, 1.55 p.m.) LONDON, .Tune 24. Following the meat discussions in the morning a meeting of the complete Imperial assembly was held in the afternoon. In the meantime Mr Walter Runciman again consulted the Argentine representatives. The Dominions are still awaiting Mr Runciman’s report, without which it is impossible for Britain to submit practical propositions. It seems certain that the Argentine is continuing her strong opposition to a pennv a pound margin between the levies on Dominion and foreign supplies. Britain tn-dav offered concessions regarding a Meat Council to be formed in London to control the supplv situation. Australia and New Zealand both pressed that it must be purely an Empire Council, feeling that if it included foreign meat interests, the Dominion representatives would be swamped. Britain now seems inclined to concede this point.
