AN UNOFFICIAL MISSION
HERIOT AND TCHITGHERIN. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received August 20, 5.5 p.m.) PARIS, August 19. Widespread interest is being taken in the prospective meeting between M. Heriot "and M. Tchitchenn. The former is one of the radical Socialist leaders the originator of the Lyons Fair, and one of France’s most able business organisers. He intends later to go to Russia. The Government announces that his mission is in no way official. A former message states: —“Le Temps” Lyons correspondent states that M. Heriot, ex-Minister for Transport, will interview M. Tdhitcherin and M. Litvinoff on September 3rd at Baden, when the Russians intend semiofficially to make new offers of guarantees in place of those submitted at Genoa, and The Hague. Commenting on the mission the same paper said:—“At a time when the Entente is cooling the resumption of relations between the great democracies of Russia and France would be a step towards a treaty with Germany, the other great European democracy. Between the three they could prevent all future conflict.”
