League'May Be
Invited to Genoa.
Paris Paper Insists on Action
Following Conference
of Leaders.

PARIS. Feb. 3.-Following Pre-
mier Poincare's two-hour CONVERSE
ton with Leon Bourgeois and Rene
Viviani this afternoon. the Temps
this evening insists that the league
OF nations be invited to participate
in the Genoa conference.
without the league, the confer
ence will result in discord or
bluffs" says the Temps, insisting
that the league is the sole organizs-
ton capable of handling the bust
ness to be done. The paper sug-
gests that the work of the confer
ence should be divided into two
parts.
1. Negotiations should be conducted
for an agreement by which all
states would respect their neighbors'
frontiers and there should be COM
mittee to consider regulating and re-
ducing the ornaments Of France. Bel
GUM, Poland. Czecho-Slovakia,J ugo-
Slavia, Rumania and Russia
2. The division of the worlds mar
kets among the principal exporting
powers, Great Britain. the United
States and Germany and the alloca-
ton OF certain industries to certain
countries should be studied.
The Temps says that while the
special experts are reaching a solu
ton Of the problems the heads OF the
various governments should return to
their respective capitals.

On the other hand close friends
Of the baroness have stated that
the wedding would have taken
place in May as scheduled, but 1t
was postponed on account of the
protests of monarchist party lead
ers and relatives of the former ruler
who believe 1t would ruin his
chances Of regaining the throne.
Moreover, the baroness friends de-
clare the marriage thoroughly ap-
propriate inasmuch as she was the
first sweetheart of the former
Kaiser. He was not able to marry
her because she was not of royal
blood. While Wilhelm was yet a
prince he was called the "blumen-
Walter" (flower waltzer), by the
baroness, whom he courted con-
tinually and now, having given up
the throne, he wants to marry his
only true love.

WOULD SEND ENVOY
TO NEW IRELAND

resolution to appoint an Amer

Free State has been introduced in
Congress by Representative John

Declaring that the United States
was established with the aid of
many men of Irish birth, and that
American citizenship today is COM

of Irish extraction" Rainey de-
clared that such a new departure
in American diplomacy as creation
Of a diplomatic post in Ireland

Il will urge an early hearing on
the resolution" Representative
Rainey declared. Changed world
conditions, the breaking down of
old hard-and-fast lines of self-suf-
