THIS OREGON DAILY JOU RNAL, PORTLAND. ORCGOTf TUESDAY, JULY Z7, .IZZ?? ALLIES PAVE WAY FOR RECOGNITION OF SOVIET RUSSIA By A E. Johnson .v- (United Vein Buff. Corrtondnt.) f London, July 26. There is trowing impression in official and diplomatic circle that direct dealing between the allies and the soviet government ot Russia, implying as It doe Virtual, .recognition of the Lenin-Trotsky regime, will com.. out of the Polish-Bolshevist armlstioe.' Sunday night Premier Lloyd George received a long message from the soviet government expressing a willingness to end representatives for a conference ' with the allied premiers over the Polish situation, - . ... . Monday morning It was stated that Lloyd George would go to ' Bologne Tuesday for a conference with Premier Mlllerand of France, I kaxce lie opposition . France has rheen the chief obstacle In the path of allied recognition of the soviet government The question asked In all diplomatic quarters now ia.. "Have Lenin and Trotsky at last won their fight for recognition It Is adratlted frankly that the soviet! government turned .. a clever trick Jn accepting as it did the allied suggestion, made through Lloyd George, that the Bolshevist advance against Poland be stopped and arrangements begun for an armistice. In answering the allied sug gestion the soviet government immedi ately accepted the . situation as one strongly favoring the chance of official Silted recognition of the sovlets. There are ; even veiled implications that Lloyd George may have anticipated Just what Lenin did. He certainly : acted on behalf of all the allies when he made his suggestion for an armistice directly to the soviet government' of Russia and now is in a position, if he desires, to bring pressure to bear upon MUlerand, and that since negotiations have been "opened with Russia there Is . nothing to do but . go through with them in order to help Poland. The objection to recognition jof the soviet regime raised by France, has Its foundation in the repudiation of foreign borrowings by Lenin and Trotzky. OWE FKAS'CE MONET France had advanced tremendous Hums to the Russian, government and in addition had large holdings in Rift . eia. It seems unlikely that if an ar rangement for recognition of the Soviets is decided upon it will have France's support, unless assurances are received 'that Russia will acknowledge her debts to France. . Lloyd George expects to spend all of ( Tuesday with Millerand, - returning fto London Wednesday. likelihood would not directly participate in any way In the peace negotiations. There have been -conversation on the subject of Russia between this govern ment and France and Britain, but5: de tails have not been considered. - Mean time, the American government is mark inn tiro, and awaiting more information before making any move. . The government ia eympatbetlc toward Poland, and believes the country Is back of It in this view. Hence it was indi cated that America would be Interested In preserving the integrity of the Polish, republic and in seeing that Poland did not suffer' inr, any . peace arrangements that might be made. But developments will be' awaited . before possible action is considered, r ' .-;, :" It was strongly indicated today that the government- will not" declare its moral support of Poland, as requested, at the present time. 'if ; No effective means of doing this or assisting in other ways' were determined, and recent events make any action at all unwise. In the opinion of officials. Timber Land Near ene!
