Bar lie Due =, Premier Poincare an
the French delegation at Genoa could
not go ahead with it's work under the
agreed conditions France would re-
gretfully have to- cease participation
in the conference,
Referring to- the /Russo-German
treaty signed q last week at Rapallo,
Premier Poincsre4 said: "That accord
brings into the full light the sympa-
thies which have developed in the
darkness between the Bolsheviki and
the Germans.
"Things are going on in Germany"
he said, "as if, the Pan-Germans were
watching for an opportunity to foment
trouble sooner or later, on their east
ern frontier with view of getting
back by force the Polish regions tax
en- from Germany by the treaty of
Versailles.
! Hints Germans Long Busy.
"What is going on in Genoa" con-
tinued the premier, "singularly con-
firms all we knew Of the state of mind
of too great portion of the empire.
How long back had Germany prepared
the treaty with the Soviet government
and are we sure The treaty has been
published Is it or is it not accompanied
by secret clauses. Is it simply shield
for political and military conventions 2"
CAT any rate" added M. Poincare,
"the coming together of Germany and
the Soviets was a great menace to Po-
land and an indirect menace to
France.
eff the French delegation cannot go
on with the work at Genoa under the
conditions agreed upon then we shall
have with great regret, to discontinue
our collaboration in the conference,
for the success of which we have done
all we could.
The 31st of May, when the Germans
must either accept conditions laid
down by the Preparations commission or
default in their payment, is an i'm
portant date for France, said the pre-
mier. 1t is Frances duty, he added,
Gin full independence to assume the
duty of maintaining the integrity of
the treaty.
Asks Execution of Treaty
Gall we have ever asked and all we
ask today is the execution of the
treaty." said M. Poincares, "and that
we must have ana shall have. The
peace of Europe depends upon it. Our
future and our national prosperity de-
pend upon it.
cit is not by precipiate action or by
decisions without reflection that we
will obtain it. 1t is by perservering
and methodical action. But it must be
done"
| The premier declared he ardently
hoped for the cooperation of the Al
f lies in case Germany defaulted, "but
according to the terms of the treaty"
he added, "each may in case of need,
take, respectively such measures as
deemed necessary and we shall not
suffer it that our unfortunate country
succumb under the burden of repara-
lions alongside of Germany that does
not consent. to make the necessary eff
fort to discharge her debts.
"We shall defend in full independ-
ence, the French cause and we shall
not abandon any arms the treaty gives

PREMIER THREAT
TO RESIGN PROVES
SENSATION OF DAY
Lloyd Georges Dissatisfaction
Over Opposition of Long
Standing.

LONDON, March 1.-The prims
minister's threat Of resignation has
been the political sensation On the
day. Hints of Mr.. Lloyd Georges
resignation have been current ever
since Sir George Younger head Of
the conservative party organization
engineered "a revolt of some so die
hards' Tories against the premier
during the latter's absence at the
Cannes meeting
One outcome of that revolt was a
pracJica. split i'm the coalition. and
public abandonment of the so-called
coupon system under which hereto
fore candidates. whether conserva-
tive or liberal. entered the electoral
contests under a united banner
The attitude Of the die hards is
that they decline TO recognize Lloyd
Georges leadership unless they are
allowed 10 dictate the policy OF the
coalition, which would include re-
storation of the legislative veto TO
the house of lords and a protective
tariff
Coalition Gains strength.
The prime minister is said 20 have
threatened TO resign when he re-
turned from Cannes but was dis
suaded by Austen Chamberlain.
Since then disintegraton i'm the
coalition has proceeded rapidly a
large body Of the conservatives
showing a disposition 70 support the
revolving element At the same time
recent by-elections in which the gov
eminent candidates were defeated,
tended 70 show that the country was
completely out Of sympathy with
the coalition while the labor party
and the Asquuhian liberals. who Op-
posed the coalition are constantly
gaining strength.
Ever since parliament reassembled
the belief that general elections
were approaching has overshadowed
an proceedings of political char
acter both within and outside Of
parliament.
Meetings Of the government whips
and the organizing leaders OF the
conservative party We're held today
10 consider the new situation and
although nothing definite was de-
cided. it is expected that a meeting
of the whole conservative party VIII
be called ~ an early date. The con-
tents Of the letter, which the Daily
Telegraph says the prime minister
has written 90 Austen Cham berlain
as leader OF the uniOnists are not
known but it is said that the premier
pointed out that there was only one
leader of the coalition. and that
Chamberlain and not Younger was
the leader Of the conservative party.
Lloyd-George has thus far made
no public threat 90 resign but he has
done so definitely % Austen Cham
berlain and other unionist leaders
His action IS in the nature of a
protest against the tactics that have
been employed TO undermine his
power in the coalition and in par
lament
If the prime minister presents his
resi- gnatiou. il VIII merely be per-
sonal resignation and not the resig-
nation OF the government.
