RUSSIA UNABLE
 COMPLY WITH
 TERMS TREATY

GENO, May G. - Foreign Minister Tchitcherin today announced that Russia's reply to the allied memoran- dunn would be distinctly concilia- tory. He said the tone of the docu- ment would make it clear that Rus sia had no intention of breaking off negotiations. He insisted however that the reply will firmly and pos- itively state, Russia's inability to comply with the terms offered. The tension has somewhat eased as a result of Tchitcherin's preliminary announcement, and the delegates are now awaiting the terms of the formal reply. It is hoped that the reply will at least show some basis for further negotiations.

They contend that the deli cate situation caused by and the com plications which have arisen over the memorandum presented by the All lies to Russia, setting forth the least they will take from the Moscow gov ernment, and the most they will offer it. is such, that the whole purpose ot the conference may fail of accomplish ment, unless the side issues raised by the memorandum are adjusted. They contend that in view of the injection of the Cannes agreement into the ne- gotiations, the demand of the Allies upon Russia, and the turbulence over the Rappalo treaty, the present s1tu' ation holds but little probability Of success for the economic conference.
