Russian leaders here think that the
decision Of the supreme council OF
the peace congress to invite bolshevist
leaders to conference constitutes
the greatest victory that bolshevism
could ever hope to attain. It would
not be surprising, however, II the boil

same "impertinent language" which
they have already adopted in their
communications with President Will

foreign minister, and Prince Lvov are
united in their opposition to the plan
insisting that the nonbolshevist ele

the majority here, will be adversely
