United States and England Sat-
isfied With Suggestion
for Moral Support.
WILL SUPPORT THE
NEW GOVERNMENTS
French Foreign Minister Tells
Deputies His Views on
the Subject.

Paris, Dec. 25.-The allied govern
ments have decided against further
Intervention in Russia, at least for the
present, according to indications from
official circles. Great Britain and the
United States, it is reported, while
recognizing that Russia should be as
sisted in a way to permit her return
to normal conditions, point out that
military Intervention on a large scale
would involve difficulties and danger
of all kinds.
Stephen Pichon, the French foreign
minister, explained the situation at
length to the committee on foreign
relations yesterday. He said the So
luton at present favored was to guar
antee moral support to the govern
ments which had sprung up at va
rious points on Russian and Siberian
territory.
Lvoff Gives Views.
Prince Lvoff, who is the guest Of
Basile Maklakoff,8 Russian ambassa-
dor to France, and who is participate
ing in the lengthy conferences being
held here by Russian statesmen, dis
cussed his views of the immediate fu-
ture in Russia with the representa-
tives of the Associa ted Press.
Additional entente military forces
are necessary to restore order and
check anarchy in Russia. he said. 1T
is impossible for the disorganized
country to right itself otherwise.
''I am not a military expert he
said, when asked how many troops
would be necessary, land my opinion
on that subject would be of little
value in my judgment The opposi-
ton is weak. Petrograd practically
has ceased to exist and could be taker
with slight resistance"
In reply to a question as to what
form of government would be best for
Russia, Prince Lvoff said that it must
be a republic.
Paul n. Milukoff, former Russian
foreign minister, who was ordered to
leave France because Of alleged pass
port irregularities, has gone to Lon
don. He was accompanied by several
politicians from Ukraine who came
from Odessa with him.
