LLOYD GEORGE GAINS
VOTE OF CONFIDENCE
Program Outlined In Speech Provides
for Recognition Of Soviet Russia
Under Guarantees

| London.-The house of commons
Tuesday night after an unexciting de-
bate. adopted by the substantial ma
jority OF 27S. Premier Lloyd Georges
resolution calling for confidence In the
governments policy on the coming eco
| monte conference at Genoa. The vote
was 372 to "a.
Prior to thissthe house by a vote of
BoI 10 "a rejected an amendment pro-
posed by John Roberts Clynes. Labor
lite, which while approving an interna-
tional economic and financial confer
enee. declared that the government was
not competent to represent the country
at such conference and did not have
the confidence Of the country. This re-
suit Is regarded as exceedingly salts
factory for the prime minister, as the
| combined Laborites and independents
Liberals number about 100 and the Die
Hards about So all OF whom might
have been expected to oppose the pre-
mier's resolution.
The prime minister's speech inviting
parliament to vote confidence in the
governments Genoa policy was note
worthy inasmuch as II touched only
lightly on the political crisis at home
and because 1t endorsed the French
policy toward Russia. although Mr..
Lloyd George himself displayed much
sympathy for an entirely concilatory
attitude toward Russia, and further, in
that II sought a convention with the
soviet government, lest by waiting II
might eventually he necessary to deal
with a still more irrecOncilable or mill.
tarist regime, which might embroil the
whole of Europe.
While emphasizing that nothing
could be gained by waiting for the
overthrow of the soviet administration
the prime minister accepted the French
standpoint, demanding guarantees with
respect to Russla's debts and obliga-
tons. and STIMULATING a period of pro.
bation Of six months or year but
less II Russia gave the necessary guar
antees, before full recognition was ac-
corded.
The premier reiterated his belief III
the sincerity of the conversion Of Nix
OLAF Lenlne and the soviet to diluted
form Of communism
Perhaps the most interesting OF Mr..
Lloyd Georges proposals was that OK
changes should be stabilized at some
maintaInable figure but no details were
given ms to how he proposed to effect
this, except that 1t might be attained
by some form OF international cooper
alton and pressure.
