have arisen in the Russian delegation
here One is absolutely intransigeant
in favoring the proposal contained in
the report of the allied experts. The
other favors acceptance of the report
as a basis for discussion on the fol-
lowing fundamental points:
First. liberty of commerce to be in

ing of juridieal guarantees: third. ac-
of the debts accrued by
Russia under the czarist government if
