Lloyd George Expected to
Play Important Part in
Deliberations There

GENOA. April 10. (By The Asso-
ciated Press).-The conference was
formally opened this afternoon in
the historical palace of St. George
by Premier Facta of Italy.
The premier was applauded as he
rose to deliver the speech of well
come to the delegates who assembled
to discuss the economic conditions
of Europe. He expressed the hope
that the work of the conference
would prove successful and lend it
self to the betterment of the ma
tons OF the earth.
The premier then read 4 welcom-
ing message to the delegates from
King vic.or Emanuel.
GENOA. April S.-Representatives
of more than forty nations. includ-
ing Russia. but minus the United
States. were here today prepared for
the opening today of the Genoa Eco
nomic Conference, regarded here as
the most momentous assembly since
the. Versailles peace deliberations.
All eyes are upon Russia. for it
is the first time this great nation
has participated in world affairs
since the overthrow of Kerensky's
provisional government in the spring
of 1917. After more than four
years of experimental government,
Nikolai Lenine, Russian Premier,
has abandoned much of what he
previously considered essential to
Bolhsevism and has consented 10
participate in a conference called by
"~capitalistic nations"
on the ground that the gathering
will be political rather than Geo.
nomic,' the United States mas de-
! clined Italy's invitation to send rep
resentatives. The American people,
Secretary Hughes said in declining
the invitation, are anxious to assist
Europe in recovering its economic
life but feel that they cannot involve
themselves IN European politics.
Decision to call the Genoa confer
ence was reached by the Allied Su-
preme Council meeting at Cannes
early in January. Rapidly diminish
ing European exchange. billions OF
dollars in unpaid debts. German rep
arations, necessity of reconstructing
devastated areas, the Russian situa-
ton and hope that the United States
would lend itself as a stabiliZing in
auence, constituted the pressure be-
hind this decision.
None of the more than 1000 per-
sons who will sit as delegates, ad-
visors and experts in the Genoa Eco
nomic Conference viii command
greater public interest than the small
gr2up of men representing Russia
while prominent statesmen, dlplo-
mats and political leaders of almost
every other European country are
well known to the average reader
for the reason that they have par
ticipated in mere assemblies and
conferences since the Versailles de-
alterations. the Russians are meet
ing for the first time since 1870 with
Representatives of the rest OF Eu-
rope.

NEW BRUNSWICK. April 10:--
The Middlesex county tax rates for
1922 will be made known late this
afternoon when the twenty-nine as
SCISSORS of the county appear before
the county board to receive their
rates. The assessors of the county
have been summoned for this puf-
pose.

further through -assessme b.
the county board in several munici-
palities. The taxing laws provide
that the tax rates be made known
between March l and 10. then the
I tax bills are due April i.
Due to the numerous delays il is
unlikely that the assessors will get
the tax bills out before May l.. A

suit of the delays because of the
fact that under the taxing laws in
terest is due on axe not paid by
June /. 1t is said that the collec-
tors in the various municipalities
will take up the matter of having
the time extended because it will be
a burden on the people 10 paw their

while one or two show slight de-

Ernest Thacker and Mr.. r. B. Roddy
in the First Baptist Church, it was
last evening that the SUBJ
ject tonight at 1880 O'Clock would be,
"a Revival of Sim" In making this
announcement DIR. Thacker said; Il
have travelled all over our country
in this work, and what I think we
need, perhaps, above all things just
now, in the church and out of it,
is revival of sin. You have heard
a great deal about revivals of righte-
business, but l am sure that our great
need today is for revival of sin. !"
This is certainly a strange sub
.ject for a church to consider and a
preacher to announce, but it will
doubtless, be made very clear tonight
