cred in Downing street. The crowd
included American tourists, and the
conference had the largest gallery"
OF any postwar meeting that has

BY a ruse the several score news
paper men who were awaiting the
arrival of the statesmen were taken
to the room of the prime minister's 8
secretary, while. unknown to them,
the entire personnel of the foreign
delegations entered the conference
room. The incident caused smuchsre-
sentiment among the correspondents

important work facing the allied gov
ernments was begun at a preliminary
meeting of the principal representa-
tives.
No agenda for the conference, in
which Prime Minister Lloyd George
and Premier Poincare of France were
the principal participants. had been
prepared in advance and one of the
first concerns of the initial meeting,
presided over by Mr.. Lloyd George,
was to decide the order in which the
various subjects would be brought
forward
No one. aside from the delegates,
was admitted to the session. A state
ment from Sir Edward Grigg, the
British premier's private secretary,
as to the course the proceedings had
taken was at first promised for the
early afternoon, but later it was
stated the announcement would not
be Forthcoming until evening.
