Genoa.-The Hague has been def
nitely selected as the meeting place
for the experts who will further ex-
anime the Russian problem. Arrange
ments for the Hague conference in
June were practically completed with
the acceptance by the Russians of the
proposals submitted to them, which
have been amended so as to provide
that a truce between the various pow
ers will continue for a maximum Of
eight months.
The process verbal relating to the
Lloyd George plan for dual commits
siOns to meet at The Hague, which
was presented to the Russians, was
adopted with an annex.
With the amendments recently car
ried by the subcOmmission, it will be
sent to the Washington government,
probably with letter from the secre-
tary of the Genoa conference.
Clause six of the annex to the pro-
cess verbal, which refers to the truce
or preliminary pact of non-aggression,
was amended in such a manner as to
make it clear that the truce, as well
as applying to the Russian government
proper, will apply also to the eight re-
publics allied with Russia.
The japanese delegation accepted
this amendment with the understand.
ing that it must be ratified by the jap.
anese government. A second amend
ment to the document provides that
the truce will continue to operate for
a period of four months after adjourn
ment of The Hague meeting. AS i.
had been previously understood that
The Hague conference would last
about four months, this change is in.
terpreted as indicating a probable
European and Asiatic truce of about
eight months. This extension is also
considered a victory for Mr. Lloyd
George because it provides more time
for the contamination Of the perma.
nent nOnaggressiOn pact into which he
hopes the truce will be merged.
After a conference with Mr. LLOYD
George, M. Barthou and M. Jasper an,
nounced that the French and Belgian
delegations, approved the proceedings
but must refer the whole matter to
their home governments for ratifica-
ton.
The impression prevailed here that
Frances attitude toward The Hague
conference might be determined large
ly by the attitude of the United States
whose presence France desires be-
cause of the similarity of their views
on Russian communism.
The Russian delegates withdrew
their objection to the holding of the
conference at The Hague, upon hear
ing the announcement from a repre-
sentative of Holland that the Dutch
government would undertake to ac
cord to the Russians all guarantees
facilities and rights extended to the
delegations of all other countries.
