In Cumberland a coal mine disaster killed nine men and injured seventeen at Canadian Collieries Durant Limited. Among the dead were three whites Robert Dunsire John Gibson and John Johaassen and four Japanese and two Chinese. All workers were accounted for and most injuries are minor with full recoveries expected.

The British delay in the conference is cited as a factor in renewed hostilities. France advocates Greek Turkish talks with the Allies as the sole way to halt fighting.
