GENOA PARLEY
INVITES S. TO
new MEETING
United Press Leased Wire

GENOA, May 15.-Russia today ac-
ceptted the Allied invitation to con-
ference at The Hague next month.
Rakowski made the announcement in
behalf of the Soviet delegation. He
condemned the allied plan of having
two commissions, instead of single
mixed one ON which Russia should be
represented.
The Russian spokeman declared he
did not expect any good results from
The Hague meeting to which the allies
have invited the United States as well
as Russia.
The United States has been formally
invited to join the Hague conference,
the Russians were informed.
The conference, having failed to
achieve its main object, the United
States has been invited to assist the
allies in reaching agreement with Rus
sia.
The formal invitation to the Amer
lean government to participate in a
conference on Russian problems at The
Hague on June Is was delivered to
Ambassador Child yesterday and for
warded to Washington today.
The suggestion that the United
States be invited came from France.
The idea seemed to be that the
Russian negotiations here had broken
down because Russia wanted credits
and the allies could not supply these
in sufficient quantity.
The United States is to be invited
in order to supply these credits.
Meanwhile the Genoa conference is
to be adjourned. 1t will be wound up
with a plenary session this week, and
commissions appointed, not by the con-
ference, but by individual govern
ments will meet at the Netherlands
capitol next month.
American Answer Undecided
WASHINGTON, May 15.-State de-
partment officials today declined to in
dicate what Americas answer would
be to the allied invitation asking that
the United States participate in an in
ternational conference on the Russian
problem starting at The Hague, June
15.
The invitation, as forwarded by Am.
bassador Child from Genoa, was re-
ceived by the state department at 10
'clock this morning.
There was nothing to indicate a
change in the American government 8
position, which caused it to decline to
participate in the Genoa conference.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, May 15.-Regu-
lar Republican state organizations are
confident they will be able to deliver
the votes that will nominate George T..
Alter, for governor over Clifford Pin
chot, Independent Republican.
The contest between George Wharton
Pepper and VIM. j. Burke for the sena-
torial nomination is regarded as "safe -
for Pepper.
Fighting as they have not been COM
PEELED to fight in a decade, the old
Penrose- Knox politicians received final
reports here today of a painstaking
canvass which covered every county in
the state.
The results are such that the leaders
are convinced neither Alter nor Pepper
can be beaten unless the women bolt.
Women are voting tomorrow for the
first time in Pennsylvania state pri-
mary. And the preliminaries in both
camps confess that all "dope' is
based upon guesses as to what the wom-
en- will really do.
The contest here has attracted ma
tion wide attention because it is pri-
marily fight by the old PenrOse or
ganization, leaderless since his death,
to hold itself together and go on func-
tioning as dominant factor not only
in Pennsylvania politics, but in ma
tional politics as well.
Arrayed against this organization is
the progressive Republican. revolt by
PinchOt.
If Pinchot wins tomorrow the pro-
gressive Republicans in dozen states
will have visions of sweeping into pow
er in the party.
