GENOA PARLEY
ENDS IN SCRAP
WITH RUSSIANS
United Press Leased Wire

GENOA, May 19.-The Powers at
Genoa at final plenary session of the
economic conference today gave assent
to Lloyd Georges proposed temporary
truce for Europe and the near east.
Representatives of 90 nations met at
st. Georges palace to complete tho
work of the parley, formerly accepted
the aggression pact.
The delegation from Italy signed the
pact including the truce agreement,
and in this truce each nation represent
ed at the closing session was under
stood to have given assent.
/ The plenary session adjourned at
lilo p. M, bringing the economic con-
ference formally to an end.
The final plenary session adopted the
report of the economic siibcOmmission
of the conference.
Tchitcherin, Russian leader, indicat-
ed his objections to the commission s
findings, as did Rathenau, German, but
the plenary session approved the re-
port.
Russian Starts Trouble
There was q clash between Tchitch-
erin Russian, and Colrat French, over
adoption of the report shortly after the
conference opened, which threatened to
develop serious proportions.
The Russian made sensational accus-
ations against members of the economic
committee.
He accused Colrat of barring Russians
from membership on the labor commit
tee, although the Soviet government
is the only one in the world based upon
labor principles.
Tchitcherin declared the eight hour
day should be made compulsory
throughout the world. He said the
economic commission lacked courage in
its report.
Lloyd George had his first tilt with
the Russians early in the session.
The British premier was speaking on
the motion to adopt the political sub
| commission s report.
Turning to the Russian delegation,
he said:
"When you are asking for credits,
at The Hague or elsewhere, 1 advise
that you do not accompany your re-
quest by an explanation of your doe
trine of reputation of debts. z"
Honor First Consideration
Tchitcherin started to respond angri-
ly, but Lloyd George motioned that he
would continue and went on:
''If Russia wants money she must ac-
eept the code of honor which has des.
eended t0 other nations through gen.
eratiops.
| Walter Rathenau of the German del.
egation was warmly applauded especi.
ally by the neutrals when he intro
duced the subject of reparations.
The German financial expert said he
hoped Genoa would provide a basis for
world peace, but warned the conference

COURT REFUSES TO

Judge J. M. Woods today denied mo-
ton of the defense to dismiss the trea

The defense sought to have the in

the state had failed to prove the treason
charge.
"The power to prosecute must be in
herent in all government, Judge
Woods stated in his decision. Evidence
before the jury is sufficient for con
