The final meeting was largely of formal character, with speeches by the various Prime Ministers, and a vote of thanks and a message to the King. The conference. before adjourning, decided that new work on the Singa- pore base is to be postponed five years, when the question will again be reviewed. Existing work, under what is known as the "Jackson con- tract," will be continued. The Singa- pore alr staton will be completed.
