Paris, June ll.-(By the Associated

the French attitude agrees that The
Hague conference should 20 a consul
tation Of experts and should avoid po-
litical and diplomatic questions. Great
Britain disagrees, however regarding
NJ. Poincares' demand that the Soviet
government withdraw It's memoran-
dunn of May II. holding that 1t Is su-
perseded by the Soviet's later declara-
tions, and that in any case request for
withdrawal should have been made be-
fore the Russians were invited TO The
Hague.
The British government considers
that the Cannes conditions should be
the basis Of the program, and asserts
that private property in Russia should
be restored TO its owners or tnat they
should be fully compensated, but that
Russias sovereignty should De re-
spected and no program along that
line should be imposed upon her IN
advance, if her indispensable co-opera-
ton was TO be expected. Great Britain
considers it necessary that Russia's
war debt should be reduced in part.
