Refusal Is Attributed to

CANNOT REMAIN AL0OF

ROME, March 10 (Associatcd Press) -
The absence OF american representation
at the forthcoming economic conference
70 be held in Genoa was referred TO
with regret by Foreign Minister Schan-
zcr in the course of an address in the
Chamber OF Deputies.
There is nothing in the reply to our
invitation" he said, that particularly
concerns Italy, in fact. the reasons for
the refusal Of the United States to
participate In the conference as set
forth by Secretary of state Hughes are
essentially American political reasons.
However, I think the United States can
not long remain aloof in European dis
cussons."
The Foreign Minister admitted GER
tain political questions must be disposed
OF before concrete agreements on linlita-
tion of armaments were possible. He
pointed out that the conference could
not be expected to accomplish the
Utopian task of immediately adjusting
the European and world situation.
Genoa. he said, was not the last stage
of the journey toward discovery of a
method of healing the wounds made by
the war;
There can be no idea of revising or
remaking treaties at Genoa, Signor
Schanzer continued. He emphasized the
Importance OF the economic questions on
the agenda of the conference, such as
removal of trade barriers. collaboration
of stronger and weaker states, with a
view to the economic reconstruction Of
Europe, and questions of currency and
exchange. Italy's own program. he said.
would be in support OF peaceful solution
of conflicts, reduction of armaments and
the resumption Of regular relations with
the states Of central and eastern Europe.
THE Russian delegates" he declared,
may rely on respectful. welcome We
trust they will not indulge in propaganda
but will collaborate sincerely with the
other delegates
Italy. Signor Schanzer declared. has
the greatest interest in the success Of
the conference. There is at present."
he said, "a tendency to minimize the i'm
portance of the meeting and represent it
as futile. ! think this attitude is un-
justified. The Genoa conference should
be looked upon as an event OF extraor-
dinary international Importance; per-
haps the most important historic event
since the war i'm view OF the fact that
FIT Is the first time victors and vanuuished
viii discuss together their common in
terests."
The Foreign Minister said he would
urge at the Near East conference to be
held in Paris next week that the balance
OF power in the Mediterranean must be
formally recognized, and would seek to
reconcile Itaiy's economic interests with
free and independent Turkey.
Turning to the meeting of technical
experts to be held in London beginning
Tomorrow Signor Schanzor said Italy
would support a policy OF reconstruction
or European industry while safeguarding
the rights due her by history and her
position IN the consortium Of nations.
