LLOYD GEORGE MAKES APPEAL
FOR RESTORATION OF GOOD

tws.ss Ssv,esps uaiss Sss, ssvia)

GenOa.-A clash over a disarma-
ment proposal by George Chitcherin
he Russian Soviet foreign minister.
which occurred between Chitcherin
and NJ. Barthou, France, threatened to
disrupt the Genoa conference at its
opening session.
II. Barthou said that France cate
gorically refused to discuss dIsarma-
ment at Genoa. n. Chitcherin replied
that Russia thought France would be
ready to discuss this suggestion be-
cause NJ. BRAND. the former French
premier, had said at the Washington
conference that Russia's armaments
had made disarmament impossible.
Mr.. Lloyd George hastened to inter-
vene, and in his contention that disar-
mament could not be taken up, certain
ly not before peace basis had been
reached ut Genoa, he was supported
by Signor Faeto.
Eventually the discussion on this
point ceased, after NJ. Chitcherin said
the Russian delegation would bow to
the collective will Of the conference.
The clash between the Russian and
French delegates disclosed the fact
that disarmament is not on the agenda
and that, therefore, this matters is not
to be taken up for consideration.
The keynote Of Lloyd Georges
speech was peace, and he made a pow
erful appeal to the delegates to work
In unison for the restoration Of good
relations and normal economic condi-
tions throughout the world. He be-
lieved that, II thee onference was sue
cessful In Its achievements, the
United States "would not merely come
In. but come In gladly"
The italian premier, who was elected
permanent chairman Of the conference,
was equally earnest In his desire for
unanimity, and promised the aid Of
Italy In carrying out any resolution
likely to guarantee peace and stability
among the nations.
N. Barthou pledged the loyal sup.
port Of France In whatever the confer
ence might do to put into execution
the tasks Of reconstruction and good
relationship which It had mapped out.
The ambassador from the United
States, Richard Washburn Child, took
his seat In section reserved for emil
nent guests. He was to attend all the
open meetings but will not be present

 Artists of 10 nationalties, including American, have hung in the exhibition more than 50 The pictures" which make the followers of cubism seem hopelessly conventional. The contrib utors to the new idea are enthusiastic over it's possibilities, believing their movement will eventually contribute a new school of art
 GeOmrism treats of conventional subjects, such as nudes, landscapes. and interiors, but employs carefully worked out lines, according to the said to have a keen appeal for mathe- maticians.
 Francis Picadida, the Spanish artist, who invented "Dadaism," is the leader of the new method of expression.
 There are between 50 and SO Ameri- cans out of the 1900 artists exhibiting. With but few exceptions, the Ameri- cans do much to contribute to the saner, more beautiful part of the salon, the dominant impression Of which is not beauty, but frankness.
 The nudes, which this year far out number all other kinds of pictures, are in some cases startling and sur prise is expressed that the jury of the salon, even in the face of it's tradi- tional liberality, approved of some of them.
