GENOA CONFERENCE.
ANGLO-FRENCH AGREEMENT. NO DISCUSSION ON PEACE TERMS. _ PARIS, Feb. 23. The Petit Parisien, referring to the conferences pending between M. Poincare and Mr. Lloyd George, says that agreements have already been reached on the following points: The peace treaty will not be discussed at Genoa. The League of Nations will deal with all questions not dealt with by the Genoa Conference, which will be postponed for several weeks. The Soviet’s participation will not lead to legal recognition by France, but an economic agreement may be concluded in order to establish commercial relations.
The principal point of divergence between France and Britain is the recognition of the Soviet. Britain desires immediate recognition, while France favors a conditional, postponed recognition.—A. and N.Z.C.A.
