HAVING triumphed over his enc X 4 mics with vote Of confidence 372 to 94--in the house of commons, Premier Lloyd George, instead of re signing, has gone to Genoa to lay be- fore the economic conference his plans for the regeneration of Europe. On the same day as the British test Pre- mier Poincare laid his foreign policies before the French chamber of deputies, and they were approved by vote of 4S4 to TS. Whereupon he also decided to attend tue conference as soon as his official duties at home would permit. Both the British and the French have been growing more hopeful daily that good and definite results will eoEze from the Genoa meeting.
 Probably Lloyd George never made more effective speech than that which preceded .he vote of the commons. He spoke for an hour and half, setting forth eloQuently the conditions that his country aad Europe generally face, and replying with humor and keen satire to the attacks of his opponents, who ire quently joined in the applause. De lending the limitations placed on the scope of the conference, barring the discussion of revision of boundaries and 6t separations, he argued that no one of his hearers would wish to go back on the clauses Of the treaty of Versailles by which AlsaceLorraine was restored to France, Poland resur- reeted aud the independence of the Slavonic populations of Austria-Hun- gary recognized. Nor, said he, was there any use criticizing the repara- tione, since to alter these would ,simpl5 transfer the burden from GerElany to France. England and Belgium, but mainly to France. He asserted France should not De asked or expected to forego the right she won at such cost, or ta submit to the judgment of q conference in which not only her former enemies but also neuirals are represented Gcrmany's ultimate ca paeity to ras5 Et ad1ea. must not be judged by her capacity at this moment. Discussing the m9.0 theme 0f the con ference. the establishment of peace, credits, currency. exchange. transports and the r19e!jneTy of international trade. the premier d2alt largely with Russia and said he believed it's pres enf rulers had tepn brought into new frame of mind by the famine and woufd noW recognize the conditions i'm posed and accepted by civilized com munitics, acknowledging Russia'S debts and promising +o cease their attacks on the institutions of other countries. He pledged that there would be no full diplomatic recognition of the soviet government until the powers should bc entirely satisfied that Russia was really endeayoripg te carry out the terms of such an rrdertaking
 Mr Lloyd George may have been over-optimistle about the repentance of the Russians The soviet delegates became more and more cocky as they made their way toward Genoa and in Berlin they arranged for close coop eration with the German delegation, reached an economic understanding with Chancellor Wirth and Foreign Minister Rathenau and made agree meats with the representatives of Ger man industry and finance
 Rathenau explains that his accord with tho Russians is due to the posi- tion taken by the allies on the repara- tions. Among the recent demands made on Germany by the separations | commission Is the payment of 6n,ooo.- ! 000. .00O marks In increased taxation.
