If America decides not to partici.
pate in the Genoa conference 1t will
be held just the same. This was
stated at the British Foreign once
to-day, it being added that the Genoa
meeting was essentially European
affair anyway, and that much could
be done along the lines originally
proposed.
But officials here admit that Amer
lean influence Is liable to be a vital
factor whether she sits at the coun.
Gil table or not. The international
tangles are so interviewer that Amer.
lea must loom big in the background.
The British feel that an American
refusal to participate in the confer.
ence would be something that France
would have to answer fon
Officials here admitted 1t would be
very regrettable II President Har-
ding refused to accept the Genoa In
vitation, but nearly all confessed that
they appreciated his delicate posi-.

alton will be used to impress France
how her "extravagant claims" make
difiicult any broad adjustment OF
affairs.
No further meetings will be held
between Lord Curzon. British Secre-
tary of State for Foreign Affairs. and
Comte de Saint Aulaire, French Am
bassador here. on the Anglo-French
pact. Probably there will not be any
further discussion of this subject by
them until after the Paris conference
next week between Lloyd George,
Premier Poincare and others of the

The French position is guarded
with the utmost secrecy. but In
British circles THE New York HER

Dad Checks Good Enough
for Liquor, Court Rules

IN ETROIT, Jan. 27.--Tendering
a worthless check in pay
ment for liquor Is not
violation Of the law. Judge Harry
B. Keidan told jury here to-day
in instructing the jurors Of the
case of Willard A. Smith of Kala-
mazoo. charged with giving to
George Brown a check for $640 as
payment for eight cases Of whisky.
Inasmuch as there are no prop
erty rights In liquor, the court
held its sale cannot constitute a
legal transaction and the exchange
of worthless paper for It. Is not a
crime.
Smith testified the liquor also
was worthless and for that rea-
son he made no effort to protect
the check. which re had drawn on
a Kalamazoo bank. He was ac-
quilted.
