'But a better wn. perhaps, Is to

Incidentally, this miRht 1e called
the third case In Tvhtcli Pnuicp has
vleldcd to Ameilca for the .-al,e ot

sentlng to biinK the lcaRU. of nations
matter before the tlrst pait of the

last. Then came the readjustment as
to the rcpic.sentntivrs of small nations,
and now the unbelievable has uctuallv
happened in the Russian question.
"The main tbliiR to Keep in mind,"
said a Trench statesman to me todnv,
"Is that the union of the Allies and
Ameilca has been presered unim
paired bj this decision itself. Theie
is lip question hut what Kinuca was
diametrically opposed to KiiRland and
America. Thev have j.Ielded some

"It has been something .IUe the

hut jielded; nnd the results have been
satisfactory.
"No doubt the present situation will
work out, too. But we o not think It
will work out the way the advocates
of the Pilnklpo conference hope It
is hnrdly likely that all these nnti
llolshevlst RovernmentK In Russia will
consent to participate in the confer
ence with anarchists. Perhaps none
of them will. So wo niav find our
selves conferiinff onlv with the Rol
shevlkl, who arc caper to come. What
will happen in that ease has appar
ently not yet been orked out. But
it is not ptobable under those condi
tions that the fiRhtinK In Russia would
cease, whereas such Vi cessation of
hostilities Is nn essentiul toqulrement
on which we hne declared the Prln
fclpo confeience must be based. 1
think it Is a foreRone coiuluMnn th.it
Admiral Kolohak's government in Si
he'la will take no part in the confei

other hand, the Admiral probably
would not fro on with his mllitntv

Allied troops In his region.
