LENIN NOT RUSSIAN CHIEF
BoIshevik Exponent Is Premier, Michael
kalinln Being President of Central
Executive Committee.

Most Americans believe that Nikolai
Lenin Is president of Russia, whereas
he holds an Office which corresponds
to that of the British premier. Michael
kalinin, peasant, for more than two
years has been president of the ALL
Russian Central Executive committee.
His position is only about as politically
powerful as that of the French presi-
dent, and, whereas the French execu-
tive's position is mostly social, the
Russian president is mediator, cham
pion and political adviser Of the
peasant masses of Russia.
Kalinin's office in Moscow is not
in the Kremlin, but in an ordinary
office building in the heart of the
city. 1t is the one place In Russia
where no papers" are demanded
when one enters and no guards stand
about the doors.

Washington. - Three additional
nations-Belgium, Holland. and Por-
tugal-were invited by the United
States government to participate in
the discussion of Far Eastern ques-
tlons in connection with the armament
conference. 1t was also made known
by high administration officials that
the United States does not anticipate
consideration of interallied debts at
the conference.
The formal invitations to the three
additional nations were forwarded to
the respective capitals and were ex-
tended after correspondence between
Secretary Hughes and the four prin-
cipal powers originally invited to send
representatives to the conference. The
Important interests of each of the
three nations in the Far East led the
extension of the Invitations
China was invited to participate in
the Pacific and Far Eastern discus
sions when the first invitations we're
issued and acceptance by Belgium,
Holland and Portugal, which is re-
garded here as assured, will mean that
nine nations will sit together when
such discussions are entered into.
The question of armament limitation
will be discussed only by the five mai
or powers.
The attitude of the administration
with relation TO discussion of the in
terallied debts was developed in con-
nection with recently published sug-
gestions in London that the British
would welcome consideration of loan
matters at the Washington meeting.
Officials here We're represented as tax
ing the view that the conference
should be limited to matters which
might involve differences of nature
likely TO lead to armed conflict. In
terallied debts is not considered by of
ficials here in that category.
The further statement was made
that the American delegation at the
| forthcoming conference, lacking CON
gressional authority, could not agree
ito such consideration of the debt
| question, even if it was desired that
| it should be undertaken. The admin
| istratons desire that debt funding
legislation be enacted in advance of
| the conference, it was said, was based
on practical matters, not on anxiety,
| that the debt question might arise to
disturb harmony among the conferees.
The invitations to the three addi-
tional nations We're accompanied by the
tentative suggestions as to the confer
ence program, insofar as it relates to
Pacific and Far Eastern questions, and
were Identical in language. That sent
to Belgium reads as follows:

cussed. has been graciously accepted
