We cannot tolerate the opinion that we are considered only a part of Russia. The French and British experts are to bs | preparing plans for the reconstruction of Russta without Russia’s participaing in the planning. Not in the least re- #pect ean such plans influence or inter- fere with us.” M. Chitcherin declared that if the Genoa conference fafled it would only mean that the reconstruction of Russia and of the world would be postponed, but that it was inevitable that Russian participation would come later. “But without American participation the Genoa conference can have only par- tial results” he added. x Alluding to the forelgn report of a rapproachiment between France and Rus- sla to the disadvantage of England, M. Chitcherin conveyed the impression that the parleys conducted by Karl Radek and others, upon which the report wos based. did not represent the views of the Russlan government. He strongly emphasized that there was no diverg- ence of views within the Russian govern- ment, and branded as absolutely false the statements *“that we are trying to pit one state against another.” “We tlons with everybody,” he added, “and we never had an idea of cfeating an fance against Great Britain; and certainly we desire friend- Iy relations with Amerlea. AMERICA'S REFUSAL CAUSES DISAPPOINTMENT IN EUROPE London, March 8 (By the A. P.)— The news that the United States has declined the inviation to participate in the Genoa economic conference is ex- tremely disappointing to all the support- ens of the Gemoa project.

EXPEDITION TO CAPTURE MONSTER PLESIOSAURIA Buenos Aires, March 8.—(By ffic A, P.) —Notwithstanding the sceptism of Ameri- can scientists over the reported existence of & plesiosaurian monster in the territory of Chubut, near the Andes mountains, Professor Clement 1. Onelli, director of the Zoological Gardens here, caid today that an Argentine expedition would start next week to caniore the heast. The expedition will be headed by Jos> €. Inagi, superintedent of the Zoological Gardens, and Emilio Frey, an Argentine engineer Who was a member of the Argen- tine-Chile boundary commission which twenty years ago ewplored the region where the animal is reported to haive beeri seen. Professor Onello sald today that a num- ber of public spirited citizens of -Argen- tina have contributed sufficient funds to finance the expedition. He told the As- sociated Press that he did not mean to convey the absurd idea that the strange swan-necked animal reported to have been seen had l7ed continuously since the plesiosaruian epoch, but thatdie did place credence in the fprobability of the exist- ence of & huge mammiferous amphiblan beast desoended from the plesiosaurans, ENCOUNTERED ICE FIELD OFF NEWFOUNDLAND COAST St. Johng' N. F., March 8.—An ice weary crew greeted the sight of land witfh enthuslasm when the Norwegian steamer Sisto arrived here today. The Sisto left Cardiff on January 28 with a cargo of coal for this port. Since the middle of February she had been pre- vented from coming in by the heavy lce field off the Newtoundland coast. Provi- sions were enarly exhausted. Off shore winds loosened the ice today and ‘the Sisto poked her way up to her dock through the fices SITUATION IN LIMERICK REPORTED AS TRANQUIL Limerick, March 8.—(By The A.

German Toy Manufacturers Busy. Leipsic, March 8 (By the A, P.)— Americans are finding it difficult to close commercial deals here owing to the German attitude against the setting of definite times for deliveries and the unstability of the exchange rate. A num- ber of German firms, particularly in the toy industry and manufacturers of tools and tmplements, have announced that orders have been taken which will keed them busy for a year. Others are .le- clining further orders, saying they can- not assure deliveries. The station of the New Haven rall- road at North Raynham, Mass, was to- tally destroyed by fire.
