Four Powers Disagree on Self-governing Territories
LONDON, Sept. 14.

Kulagenkov. They returned after the Russian had finished his speech. M. KUlagenkov attacked the political policy of the Colonial Powers.

"If the same debate occurs next year, the French Government will withdraw from the committee, which goes far beyond the points of reference,” said the French delegate.
