Genoa, May CBy the A. P).-If the
Russians do not give a categorical af-
drmztve answer TO the memorandum
that has been submitted 70 them. France
will not 90 on with the negotiations, and
u 70 arrangement is made with the Rus
SANS. The non-aggress.on pact becomes
impossible. said ~. Barthou. head Of the
French delegation to the economic confer
ence and vice premier IN the French cab
met 6, the American and English news
paper oorrespondents today.
". Barthou himself suggested the
meeting. which proved OF historic conse-
oucnce. because the French leader en-
phas.zed repeatedly that France had
SIDED with Belgium on a question Of prin-
Gp.e OF the protection OF foreign property
in Russ-a and not because she wished to
l-ne herself up against Great Britain
Then let me say what is in my mind
frankly und openly" NJ Barthou contin-
ued and do not forget that my words
are care'uEy chosen. and that speak as
the chief representative OF the French
government We have been here a month.
Some wspzpersE-sna I am not refer

seemed 20 doubt the sincerity of France
and seemed also 20 doubt the sentiments
with which we came TO Genoa. But we
rave coAanorated n every possible way.
France gave proof Of her good will and
loyalty and continually made concessions
50 that the conference could go on.
"At the outset We had semi-oficial con-
verE7tiuns with the Russians at Mr.
Lloyd Geor5u's villa and my attitude was
approved by the French government.
Then came the sensational disclosure OF
the Russo-German separate treaty.
II Trance. as alleged by some, pos
teased secret or sinister intentions, that

ference. Had we left the conference
then and there. I believe there are few
people in the United States or England
who would have blamed US. We contin-
usd loyalty with the work Nothing
sou.d have better shown our good inten-
lions"
The french minister then traced the
events ~ the past week and explained

BODY OF JITNEY DRIvEE
POUND IN THE WOODS

Mount Holly y. J.. May THE find
ing Of the body of Jonas Fox. Wrights-
town gtney driver. in a strip Of woods
near Halnesport today furnished the
Burlington county authorities another
murder mystery. There were two bullet
holes through the mans chest and his
elothing had been partly burned off by a
tre. apparently started by his slayers. A
larre area Of underground surrounding
the BODY had been burned over.
Fox disappeared last Tuesday and
Coroner clover expressed the opinion he

this problem in the memorandum" con-
tsnued NJ. Barthou. II had 1t amended so
that it conformed more with the Cannes
resolutions. Then 1 went to Paris and
found our parliamentary commissions
were united in holding that Belgium's $
objection was justified, because even the
amended text was not categorical enough
on the question of foreign property. 1
was instructed to support Belgium's cause
but that does not mean that we have
chosen from among our friends. We
have taken sides merely on the question
OF principle. There is no suggestion OF
preference as concerns England or Bel
GUM.
I'VE love England and Belgium
equally, but believing that Belgium Is
nearer tho truth on the vital problem Of
private property. we have sided with
Belgium"
The minister then turned to the future,
saying: IF you ask what is coming,
must say 1 do not know 1t is possible,
even probable, that Russia by refusing to
agree to the memorandum will unite US
again. 1t is necessary for the Russians
to reply Hearty, yes or no. The terms
presented to them are precise and clear.
II their reply is not categorical, if it is
dilatory, If it means playing for time,
tneh can merely Sdy lHdI GeuOd Is d
charming city, but We all have other OBJ
legations and other duties which call US
elsewhere"
|. One question was put to M. Barthou: :
"lf the Russian reply is evasive, what
will Frances attitude be on the non
aggression pact?"
He answered: IF it is evasiye, all is
over. The non aggression pact can only
be taken up in the event of preliminary
accord with Russia. Germany signed the
treaty Of Versailles, and Article 10 of the
covenant of the league of nations pro-
vides that countries shall not attack one
another. Russia has not signed the
treaty of Versailles, and a non aggression
pact Is impossible unless some arrange
ment with Russia IS brought about by the
Genoa conference"
