AN EXPLANATION

In the absence OF the editor
yesterday an editorial not from
his pen, entitled "McAdoo Dis
credited" crcpt into our cdi-
tOrial columns.
While the journal Is far
from committed TO the idea of
government ownership or gov
cInment operations of rail-
roads 1t recognizes In McAdoo
one of our great Americans OF
the war period and It is not
a part of our policy to speak
disparaging of him.
In our judgment the condi-
tiOns of the war period were
so entirely different. from those
OF the postwar period that
comparisons are difficult and
of little value.
Criticisms of war time man.
agcment are largely unjust be-
cause of the high pressure and
congestion due to the war.
Since the return OF the roads
TO the owners conditions have
been too abnormal to Justify
the drawing of any permanent
conclusions.

SOVIET LEADER
ENTERTAINED BY
KING Of ITALY
ChitCherin Goes to Lunch

of Latest Style.
(By The Associated Press.)

Genoa, April 22.-George Chit
cherin, head of the Russian soviet
delegation to the economic confer
ence, not only went to luncheon to-
day with the king of Italy on the
Idreadnaught Dante Alighieri to the
discontinue of Italian communists,
but also wore for the occasion an
Immaculate morning coat and
high hat of latest style, and was
photographed by motion photogra-
pliers as he was shaking hands with
the Italian monarch.
Furthermore, the bolsheVlst
statesman was photographed in the
act of shaking hands with Louis
Barthou, head of the French dele
cation, who has been particularly
active in taking exception to Rus
sian proposals at the conference.
When M. Barthou discovered that
he had been photographed in the
act OF exchanging greetings with
the soviet chieftain, there was
something of a scene. He demanded
in explosive French that the film
be destroyed.
The thought of such film shown
in the motion picture houses along
the Champs Elysees was too much
for the French delegate, but the
hard hearted movie man ignored
his expletives and continued film

were the kings guests at the

by Leonid krassin,
Russian soviet trade expert, who
also was clad in approved Downing

Italian socialists, persistently re-
refused to meet King Victor
Emanuel and always absent them

M. Chitcherin continues to be the
most conspicuous figure in Genoa.
Everywhere he goes on the street
he is followed by crowds. He was
the center of attraction at gi-
yantic reception given by the mayor

French QuibbIingi Getting
Tired of Crises, Which
Hinder the Work,
(By The Associated Press.l

Genoa. April % (by the Asso-
ciated Press.) 1.-The crisis in the
economic conference, raised today
by the French objection to Ger
many's reply to the ten power note
suggesting that the German dele
cation refrain from discussions re-
lating to Russian affairs, had not
passed satisfactorily up to a late
hour this evening.
Suspicious OF Germany.
The ten power delegates are
meeting tomorrow to draft this
supplementary note to the Ger
mans, but it was not certain to-
night whether the French would
agree to this action, as they are
extremely suspicious of the Ger
man document, and apparently the
French delegation at Genoa is be-
ing driven hard by Paris to have
it revived.
The French also raised objec-
tions to the voluminous bolsheviki
document which became public
yesterday, in which Russia made
"a long reply to the London experts
report on the restoration Of Rus
sia.
M Barthou said the French
could not sit with the Russian
commission again until this docu-
ment was discussed. The soviet
experts explained that this docu-
ment comprised merely their own
and was superseded by
M. Chitcherins note setting forth
their position exactly.
Premier Lloyd George appeared
much annoyed over the French
"quibble." He declared he had
only read three lines of the docu-
ment, which had never been Off
cially presented to the conference
and was patiently part of the nor
NAL bolshevik propaganda. He
also announced that he was get
tired of crises which were being
foisted upon the conference. TO
the great detriment of work, and
wished to say on behalf oc the del
egations of the British empire that
il these crises and constant delays
continued he would be forced to
explain who was responsible for
them.
Protest Not Received.
The British delegation hos not
yet received the protest which the
French government is reported to
have sent out from Paris to the
powers signatory to the Versailles
treaty, in which France is said TO
that the Russo-German
treaty is in violation of the Ver-
sailles treaty.

arations for the crucial week in the
battle against tne flood waters of
