MOSCOW, 2nd March.
The Foreign Office appointed a commission to draft a general disarmament scheme, though it is unlikely that it will be carried out immediately, in the face of Trotsky's declaration that no peace is possible until all countries become workmen peasant republics. Tirotsky adds: "It is absolutely necessary during the Genoa Conference that the Russian Republic be armed, so that diplomacy may be backed up by military power in the event, of the conference ending in war. There should lie no laying down of: arms until republics have been established in Finland, Poland, and Rumania."*
