Genoa. April - GBy the Asso-

gates and experts have not yet been
able 10 find formula whereby TO
compromise with the entente pow
crS. without sacrificing the Russo-
German treaty. although they were
in session TO Il very late hour to-
night Efforts are being made 10
have the conference formulate q
Russian policy in which the Eusso9
German treaty can be absorbed,
thus giving it the stamp of confer
cnce approval and removing the
cause OF hard feeling.
The plain language Of Premier
Lloyd George TO the German states
men today over the treaty incident,
which at one time threatened To
disrupt the economic conference,
was believed to have cleared the
political atmosphere. but as neith-
or the German reply TO the allies
nor the Russian reply regarding ac-
ceptance of the conditions for tie
restoration of Russia was forth
coming. the situation is still con-
sidercd critical.
Some Of the neutrals described
tho Germans as embarrassed as to-
how to find q way oct Of the diff
Guilty. Meantime the work of the
conference is blocked. The neu-
trail states have officially insisted
that the aScnda of the conferen@s@
be discussed in the commissions
and not in private conversations
among the chief delegates. To this
the leaders rcjoin that prelimin-
airy meetings are advisable in orderS
to expedite the labors OF the con-
ference.
1t is expected that once the Rus
so-German controversy is disposeI
of the machinery of the confer

announcement that !. P. Morgan
will join the group of bankers to
discuss the possibility of floating al,

created our optimistic feeling. for

there was no room for equivocation
on the part of Germany, there was
no middle course. If the Germans
insisted on maintaining the tEeste,
the French could not deal with

Paris. April 10 (By the Assoc
ciated Press) The treaty between
Germany and EuSsia signed at
Rapallo last Sunday probably Will
be formally placed before the
reparations commission on next
Friday when the commission Will
begin an inquiry to determine
whether the agreement conflicts
with the treaty of Versailles
In commission circles this even
ing it was pointed oat that the
commission probably would decide
th;lt the Rapallo pact was in d.
rect violation of Article 24S of the
Versailles treaty. This article in
eject gives the commission first
lien on all assets of the German
empire
While the members of the con!-
mission refraincd from formally
commenting upon the agree
ment. the general feeling was that
agreement ought 10 have been sub
mitted to commission for approval.
1t was considered probable that
the commission would demand in
q note 10 the German government
submission OF the treaty.
The unofficial view was tka.
Germany had violated Article 2is
of the treaty OF Versailles by aa-
pl.-inS her assets or resources to
purposes other than reparationS.
1t has been suggested by some
experts that the RapalIo agree
ment might prove, a good thing III
that il might increase the applying
capacity of Germany, but from s-
political standpoint the effect Of its
signing was considered AS very bad.
On the other hand. it has been
pointed out that Germany under
the treaty With Russia gives up
separation claims of between f5,-
00n.o09 and 2e.0to.c00 gold marks
against Russia. thereby reducing
her payin capacity by that
amount The latter view is said 10
be the one largely held by mcm-
bcrS o: The commission.
Polish Representatives have pro-
tested 10 the commission against
the RuSso-Ccrman treaty on the
ground that part of Poland whica
was included in the old Russian
empire has a substantial share in
the Russian claim against Ger

INCREASE SHOWN
 IN WHEAT EXPORT
Canadian Report Shows Great
 Gain Upon Last Year

Ottawa, Ont. Nov. 19.-Canada- ex- ported lbs,549,7b7 bushels of wheat valued at $196.16s.77l to the United states. the United Kingdom and other countries in the year ending August 3i, according to a report compiled by the Dominion bureau of statistics This was an increase of more than 22,000000 bushels over the shipment Of the previous year, tho report stated.
 Shipments of flour in this period totalcd 7,sTs,5S9 bushels. valued at s50.sS4,6O1, compared with 6,Ss6.56O bushels in the previous twelve months While exports of both wheat and flour were much greater in quantity this year, the value showed q considerable drop, due to the slump in price which occurred throughout the world last spring, according to the report.
 An interesting feature of the report Is the fact that exports of wheat to the United states showed decided decrease this year. due mainly, it was said, to the F'ordney tariff recently enacted. Wheat shipments to the United States this year amounted to only l5,96S,160 bushels compared with 42,213,551 bushels in the 1920 21 period. Shipments to England, on the other hand, showed a big increase Jumping from 34,754,356 bushels a year ago to 112,294,6so bushels in the present year.
 with a wheat crop this year that Is as large if not larger than the bumper year of 1915, and with de- crease in wheat production in Euro pean countries, Canada is in a strong position" says the report. Demand for wheat in the coming months should be particularly heavy.
 '.Flour mills in western Canada are working to capacity in an endeavor to catch up with Far East orders. There is an insistent demand from England for Canadian flour. Ship ments of both flour and wheat from the port of Montreal during Septem- ber and October were unusually heavy"

Iron and Zinc Are Also Found in the Central Part
 of Sweden

Stockholm, Nov. 29.-A discovery of new mineral wealth in Sweden IS announced by Director Axel Gavelin, head of the Government Geological Research department, who has asked the Riksdag for an appropriation to cover the investigation of the newly found ore deposits. N,
 These lie in central Sweden. and consist of iron, zinc and copper ore MT. Gavelin does not give exact de- tails as to the total size of these de- posits. but he considers them ex- tremely promising. and says that If further research fulfills his expecta- tions, the copper find especially Is valuable and will form national as- set of great importance.
 The total iron ore deposits of Swe- den already known are calculated to contain nearly 1.40O, 100000 tons, rum ming an average of so per cent iron, which is said to be over 2S per cent more than the average for all Iron ore mined in the rest of Europe, and 16 1er cent more than the average for yhe world as a whole.
 Although much of Sweden's iron orc is used for the domestic manu- facture of iron and steel, the export is, considerable In 1918 the total ex- port was six and one-half million tons, while last year the figures were four and half million.
 Copper mining and export. which is hundreds of years old in Sweden, has declined in recent years, and the familiar copper ware seen in every Swedish home was in fair way of becoming valuable antiques. Now, however, a revival of the Swedish copper industry may result from the newly discovered deposits.
