The splendors of those lovely petals

may DECIDE TO
QUIT CONFERENCE
Barthou Reiterates Friendship
for Britain, BeIgium's
Principles Upheld.

Genoa-1f the Russians do not give
categorical affirmative answer to the
memorandum that has been submitted
to them, France will not go on with
the negotiations and if no arrange,
ment is made with the Russians, the
non-aggression pact becomes impos-
sible, M. Barthou, head of the French
delegation to the economic conference
and vice premier in the French cabi-
net, said to the American and English
newspaper correspondents.
M. Barthou himself suggested the
meeting, which proved Of historic con-
sequence because the French leader
emphasized repeatedly that France
had sided with Belgium on question
of principle, and not because she
wished to align herself against Great
Britain. The vital problem was that
of protection of the property in Rus
sia of foreigners, and France believed
that Belgium was learer the truth in
treating this important question.
Henry Wickham Steed, in a dis
patch sent to The Times in London
says he understands that in an inter-
view with M. Barthou David Lloyd
George spoke violently, telling M. Bar
thou that the entente between Great
Britain and France was ended; that
Great Britain considers herself hence.
forth free to seek and cultivate other
friendships, and that the British gov
ernment felt the conduct of France
very deeply.
His advisers, the Premier was said
to have added, long had urged him to
make an agreement with Germany,
even at the cost of abandoning British
claims for reparations.
He has stood by France when pub
lie feeling in England was against
him, but now he must look in another
direction, he is said to have declared.
