WASHINGTON, March 13.--Amer-
Iicas note to Europe on the Genoa
conference is intended, In effect, to
do for Russia what John Hays note
to the powers did for China in 1899.
1t proclaims the doctrine of the open
door. 1t is designed as notice to all
the world that the United States can
not assent to any scheme, under
whatever guise put forward, that
would confer preferential advantages
in Russia upon any nation or group
of nations.
The Hughes note is a warning alike
tc the Bolshevist government at Mos
COW and to other governments that
would traffic with 1t for selfish purposes
The American declaration is directly IN
line with, and supplementary to, the
assurance proclaimed by the United
States on the eve of the Washington
conference that there must be a moral
trusteeship" for Russia pending It's en-
ergence from the red interregnum.
In addition TO portraying, as above
y
American attitude toward Genoa, the
writer can relate. on high authority,
hitherto untold details OF events that
led up 10 our rejection Of Europes in
yitHtion. The Oyershadowing reason for
our refusal was Americas discovery that
Genoa. by and large, was a "frame-up"
TO exploit Russia into Europe's interest.
Lcnin, there IS reason 70 believe, was
ready to hand Russia over for that pur-
pose In exchange for European recog-
nh4on OF the BGIshevist governments
Germany was TO be clothed with the
authority Of an economic mandatory"
/ 20 organize and administer Russia in
an industrial sense, on behalf Of the
outside world
HERE'S HOW SCHEME
WAS TO WORK.
The underlying scheme was to pre-
pare the Russian market FOR the con-
sumption Of foreign manufactured goods.
while draining Russian soil of raw ma
terials under a vast network OF railway,
mining, forestry and agricultural con-
cessions granted to foreign capitalists.
Russia was to be milked dry FOR foreign
benefit and eventually reduced to the
iguobIe status Of an economic vassal Of
alien states.
As soon as the United States Govern
ment became convinced Of the actual OBJ
ject Of the Genoa conference. Americas
foot was put down on the whole project.

dining room.
Katie was frightened and dropped
a Celtic courtesy to Starmount
something she never would have

Mary seated her at the right of
Starmount and ordered desert to be
set before her.

Starmount's eyes twinkled.
For the first time in all his life,
Malcolm Starmount was tLes host at
just this kind of a party, and as
usual, when everything produced
new sensation for him he forgot
everything else and was perfectly
happy.
He showed to Mary a completely
new side of his character and ac
