With U. S. Later} at the Hague BY HENRY Woop GENOA, May 15.—The political gubdcommission of the Genoa confer. | ence today sent @ reply to the latest Russian note, proposing that the! Genoa parley adjourn until June, when delegations from tne allies and | Russia will meet at The Hague The United States has been for. | maily invited to join The Hague con: | ference, the Russiang were informed, | The conference, having failed to! achieve its main obje the United | Btates has been invited to as#ist the allies in reaching agreement \ with | Russia. | ‘The formal Invitation te the Amer. | fean government to participate in a | conference on Russian yohlems at| The Hague on June 15 was delivered | to Ambassador Chikt yesterday and forwarded to Washingtoa today® ‘The sugsestion that the United! tates be invited came from Europe. ‘The idea seemed to ee that the Rus | Gian negotiations hese had broken down because Russia wanted credits and the allies could sot supply these | in sufficient quantity | The United States is to be invited fn order that she may supply these eredits. | ‘The plan for The Plague ts for the | allies and the United States to meet | and appoint a single committer of ex: | perts on Russia, in whose hands the | entire problem of relutiors and cred. | fte can be placed, Meanwhile the Genoa conference Is to be adjourned. It will be wound | up with a plenary seasion ‘his week, and the commissions appointed not by the conference, but by individual governments, will meet at the Neth. eriands capital next nenth. This is the plan. The Russians, ‘who blocked all efforts at agreement here, have not agreed to it. The po- litical subcommission was to meet to- day to approve it, but the soviet dete. gation, which has expressed its dis approval of the scheme, held the pow er to prevent this last effort at agree- ment. | ‘There are two versions of what tx to be done at The Hague. The ianued | probably will be fought out in the po- litical commission. Great Britain proposed that the al-| Nes appoints commissions to meet with the Russians at The Hague, aft-/ @r spending a month in consideration of the difficulties in the path of a Russian settlement. The French had a diftérent version of what had been decided upon. They| @eclared the allies and America should meet June 15, and then, if It Was so decided, the Russians should be told later in the month to hear Thus Lioyd George won le, for the French agreed! to treat with the Russians at The) Hague under these conditions. On| the other hand, the French insistence that America join and that the | es | and thé United States arrange every. | thing beforehand, was not at all Lioyd George’s ideo, and certainly not Tchitcherin’s. | The soviet leader declared the Proposition inacceptable | Another feature of the plan for ad-| journment to The Hague was that all nations would agree to make no sep-| arate agreement with Russia in the! interim. This was found highly objection able by Tchitcherin. Out of the Genoa conference, which practically | came to an end when the political) subcommiasion failed to reach an! agreement Saturday on the Russian reply, Lloyd Getree may produce his| non-aggression pact. | The allied heads yesterday agreed this would be a good thing for the conference to adopt. It would be & temporary truce on the basis of ex: isting borders. Rut formal agreement y the subcommission where the al delegates speak for their govern. ment, was still to come.
