Very cool, after rain. Evatt elected 2nd Vice President of Committee. Tuan 【段茂瀾] made a speech of thanks to the Australian government. After recess, Brigadier Gibbons made a statement on behalf of Mountbatten command: quite helpful. Moffat wished to introduce a resolution to include Korea, Formosa, and Thailand within the scope of UNRRA 【聯合國善後救濟總署], and arrangements were made for an afternoon session. But delegates failed to agree and the session was called off. Thus ended the conference. As an educational effort, the conference did some good. In relation to rice and water buffalos, it gave us some knowledge of realities. Otherwise, it has been a waste of effort and time. For the Australian government, it has yielded valuable propaganda. Had a talk with the Dutch: (1) as regards their reservation of right to exclude, called their attention to embarrassment to the Chinese government if a case should occur, (2) told him China had no intention of solving population problem by immigration, and (3) China’s industrial program did not involve going beyond pre-war level. The man (Hoogstraten) thought that the industrialization during the period of UNRRA was unfair: shows Dutch narrowness.
