After the ent of the meet- was taken at 1:15 p. m, 5 c'clock, the British delegation nnounced that “serious though endly” discussion had occurred M. Barthou, head of the French lelegation, declared at the meeting ¢ sub-commission that France ould never consent to having mixed ommissions on which the Russinvs served give consideration to Rusr/er. cred! debts and the treatment of foreign property nationalized in Rus- sin, The chief differences of opinion re arding the proposed mixed commits- sion of experts, suggested in the Rus- sian reply, were thes: First, whether the be included. Second, whether the mixed commis Russians should on should meet at Genoa or else- where. Third, whether the work of the mixed commission should begin im- mediately or after the breaking up of the conference Fourth, whether the mixed commis: fon should be divided into three sub- commissions, one for Russian public debts, another for c-e4its to be srant- e1 to Russia, and the third to con- si¢er the private property questio r whether three mixed commissions be uppointed, each dealing with one of these swbjects. Prime Minister Lioyd George, tn opening the discussion, said the Rus sian reply in substance showed the soviet delegation wished to come to agreement if possible. verybody, Mr, Lloyd George re marked, had their difficulties with public opinion at heme and it wns not right for other statesmen to criticize the sovict representatives too severe- ly. He said he thought the breaking up of the conference beause of the Russian document would be serious for Europe and Asia. ' M. Barthou for Frence said that five weeks of consideration of the Russian questions, at Genoa had been without result and it was unlikely that further consideration of them by commissions named by the Genoa con- ference would be useful. The Russians had shown clearly, he sald, that they would only take up the time with propaganda, This conflict of opinion gave rise to the serious doubts as to whether the two positions were susceptible of reconciliation. Mr. Lloyd George said a break up of the conference would send the Rus sians home to a great populatiop in the grip of famine and pestilence, who would fear that the doors of hope had been shut upon them with a clang. No- body could doubt, the said, that flerce resentment would ensue which would menace not only neighbors, but the peace of t : world.
