RUSSIANS HOLD ADVANTAGE

TER COUNCIL.
WORLD COURTS RUSSIA
BRITISH AND FRENCH AGREE ON
PROGRAM FOR ECONOMIC
CONFERENCE.

Genoa.-The preliminary moves on
the European chess board before the
opening of the economic conference
plainly showed all nations great and
small counting Russia, although they
wished to appear not over-eager in the
courtship. Therefore, the Russians
seemed to hold "a position Of distinct
advantage, all depending On how they
manipulated their pawns in their pro-
ject to be admitted to the council of
nations as the representatives Of the
Russian state.
The conditions of Russia's entry are
the outstanding and dominating sub
ject of the conference.
In the meantime the allied chiefs
have had two lengthy sessions, which
were marked by some sharp exchanges
between the British prime minister,
Mr.. Lloyd George, and Louis BarthOu,
representing France, and settled on a
definite program of technical work for
the conference.
The appointment of commissions. as
at the Washington conference. was
arranged for. composed Of representa-
tives of all the nations, with sub-com-
missions, the membership of which is
restricted to the nations having par
ticular interest in the particular eco
nomic topics to be taken up. The
French delegates announced that COM
plete accord exists between Great Bri-
tain and France in all matters. The
inaugural session was devoted to
formal addresses. Thirty-four states
and three continents are represented.
Turkey is the single European power
not represented, the entente powers
being unwilling TO admit either the
representative of the sultan or of
Mustapha Kennel S,lsha, the national
list leader, and on this question prob
ably will occur one of the great
fights which soviet Russia will make
in the conference. as it has entered in
to many treaties with Renal Pasha
and insists that this government is the
actual controller of the Turkish do
main In Europe and Asia.
Soviet Russia and Japan speak for
Asia in the conference; Canada repre-
sents North America, and the South
African federation will speak for the
great dark continent. South America
is the single great land division of the
world without Il spokesman.
