ENGLAND MAKES
SUPREME EEFFORT
TO WIN France
Lloyd George Wants Miller
and to Join Him in Rus
sian Policy.
BY WILLIAM y. NASH
BY Gable to The Star and Chicago
Daily News. COPyright. !3.O.

PARIS, July 2s.-The conference in
Boulogne is the supreme effort of
Premier Lloyd George 10 win France
over 10 his Russian policy The ne
gotiations with the bolsheviki have
gone so far that Great Britain hard
ly can continue them alone. Either
France. as represented by Premier
MilIerand, must associate herself
with Lloyd George or she must break
wholly with his Russian policy anI
set out on an isolated course of her
own. French public opinion toward
the soviet seems TO be Veerirg about
a little. and it is still possible that NJ.
Millerand may yield on the basis OF
certain concessions.
Will Negotiate Conformity.
One of the high dgnitaries in the
foreign office tells me that hereafter
the negotiations with Lenin will be
carried on by England and France con-
Jointly and no longer by Lloyd George
alone. Italy, too. is to be consulted
in the international conference, since it
is not to be an English affair exclu-
sively
probably no definite decision will be
made al Boulogne," said my informant.
1T will simply be a question of decid-
ing between two conflicting views OF
bolshevism. France would like TO know
exactly what Premier Lloyd Georges
policy is. You know his thoughts are
often a little vague. Perhaps the Rus
sian financial debt will not even be
mentioned 1t can be subordinated to
the larger question whether the soviet
government is not bound to fulfill the
enga gemcnts made by its predecessor.
Without admission of that principle in
ternational politics would soon descend
into chaos.
