and the order of things obtaining
throughout the rest of Europe that
a general immediate agreement with
Russia appears Friday night i'm
probable This conviction is deeply
disappointing to those who expected
quick and big results at Genoa. but
the sentiment is tempered by the be-
lief that the creation or one or more
commissions TO pursue an exhaustive
study Of the Russian problems will
prove efficacious in finding a means
70 reconstruct Russia and bring her
back into the European family.
Furthermore, Premier Lloyd
George and the Italian leaders are
convinced that the signing Of an Eu-
ropean truce as a preliminary TO a
general aggression pact will go
a long way toward tranquilizing Eu-
rope.
Hopes of eventually accomplishing
something genuinely constructive for
Russia were increased Friday night
by an announcement from the
fors appointment of a commission
for investigation OF questions like
credits. debts and the treatment OF
foreign private property. France
approves also a general truce. pro-

commissions are engaged in their

Resent Accusations.
The French resent accusations
that they tried TO wreck the confer

situation justifies their views that
the Russian problem has not been
sufficiently studied and that some
thing more should have been done
to approximate the views OF the Rus
slams with the representatives of
non-communist states before hoping
TO reach a general sweeping accord
at Genoa.
The French apparently prefer an
investigation by an international
commission without Russians sitting
thereon; yet Friday night a French
spokesman said France would not
