BOLSHEv|K AND
FRENCH ENJOYS
DINE TOCETHER ER
There Is An AppreCiabIe Rise
In the Expectations That
the Genoa Parley May
Accomplish Much.

Genoa, April IA (by the Associa-
ted Press) The bolshevik dele
gates and the representatives of
France to the economic conference
broke bread together today at the
residence of Premier Lloyd George
and there has been an appreciable
rise, as a consequence, i'll the ex-
pectations that the conference may
have good results, even in the most
pessimistic quarters here.
The occasion for the meeting of
the soviet and French delegates at
a table was q conference which be-
gan at 10:30 o'clock this morning
and lasted throughout the day, in
which French, Russian, Belgian,
Italian and British representatives
participated and during which Mr..
Lloyd George invited all of them
to luncheon,
Called by Lloyd George.
The meeting was called by Mr..
LLOYD George for q discussion of
the Russian problems. with the
purpose of clearing UP uncertain
points of the London experts re-

their final reply to it.
This carrying of the most vital
part of the business of the confer
ence into such an informal gather
ing, where personal contact may
possibly remove much of the ami
mostly that has been displayed in
the public sessions. has created a
general feeling in conference cir
cles that compromise may be ar
ranged on the Russian problem
which will afford a satisfactory
working basis for the reconstruc-
ton of Russia.
The keynote of the allied position
at the conference today was that
Russia first must satisfy past
pledges before obtaining any con-
cessions for the future. In other
words Russia must recognize the
debts of the czarist government
before claims against the allies can
be entertained.
Another Conference.
Tomorrow morning the experts
of the four inviting powers VINO
were present ,at today's meeting,
again Will gather at Mr.. Lloyd
Georges villa and in the afternoon
they probably will be joined by the
principal delegates Of the five coun-
tries. Germany has not been asked
to attend these private conferences
as she was not party to the max
ing of the London experts report.
The strengthening out of the moot
points in the report will be effected
at informal meetings before Ger
many is called i'll. 1t had been ex-
pected that Russia would make her
reply TO the report of the experts
tomorrow but this reply now has
been postponed indefinitely.
The Russians have caused a
statement to be circulated through
M. Rakovsky, the Ukranian pre-
mier, and other delegates. to the
effect that Russia already has en-
acted laws and made court reforms
and regulations affecting foreigners
residing in Russia which meet
many of the criticisms of the Lon
don experts report regarding the
soviet government, and that they
also have expressed willingness to
acknowledge pre-war debts and
signified their purpose to erase
their claims against the allies aris-
ing from the operations of the
Wrangel, Denekin and Yudenitch
armies against the soviet regime If
the allied war claims against Rus
sia are wiped out.

PLEA MADE FOR

Of 100000 MEN
IN NEW MEASURE
Question of Military Prepar-
edneSS Arises During
Consideration of the APP
preparation Bill.
WAR DEPARTMENTS
VIEWS ARE OUTLINED
Organization Is Strained to
the Breaking Point Now,
Says Harbord, Assistant
Chief of Staff,

Washington, April IA (by the AS
sociated Press. The question of
military preparedness arose today
in the senate appropriation COM
mittee during it's consideration OF
the army appropriation bill. Dis
cussion of the subject was brief.
but senators said the question Of
a national policy had grown out or
Ithe fight over the house reduction
in the size of the army.
Major General j. G.. Harbord,
deputy chief of staff, and Brigadier
General Lassiter, in charge of mil
itary operations and training, ap-
peared before the committee to
present the war departments views
on the subject of the house cut, the
former insisting that the organiza~
ton was strained to the breaking
point now under the forced reduc-
ton of a year ago, and the latter
describing the plan adopted by the
department for building up at low
expense" the forces required in 4
national emergency.
If provision is not made for
10000 men," said General Har-
bord, "then we who are charged
with operation and maintenance OF
the work must ask congress to re-
state for us the mission of the
army"
Questions BY Hitchcock.
The statement followed a series
of questions by Senator Hitchcock,
democrat, Nebraska, who contend-
ed that the European idea" oe
preparedness had been proved
wrong by the world war.
General Harbord declared the
work done by the American army
was at extraordinary expense land
would have availed nothing had not
gallant little France held the line
until we got our machinery going.
Mr.. Hitchcock argued that the
United States had fooled all Eu-
rope in getting actively and effect
lively into the fray in less than a
year. TO this the general answered
that had the preparation taken
place ahead of the declaration of
war, Germany might have felt diff
ferent about engaging u.s."
I'VE did it in a year, though"
continued General Harbord, "but
had we lived up to the national
defense act, carried out its terms
in good faith, we certainly would
have saved immense sums that now
enter into the public debt upon
which we are paying 1851. 100000
interest annually
Army's Mission.
General Harbord stressed the
need for officers and men to do
what the public expects of us"
1t is the work outside of the actual
army functions that require tho
extra personnel. he declared, add
ing that congress, by its appropria-
tions and otherwise, had shown
such work was worth while and
thus the army had come to regard
it as "our mission" He reiterated
that to cut down the strength to
$4,000 as proposed by the house
meant that something. somewhere
would have to crack, would have to
go undone."
In connection with the army re-
duction, General Harbord said that
it had been necessary to "close"
nine military attache offices. He
