There is much ground foxSen
couragement in the report by the
Associated Press correspondents
at Genoa of the growth hi the
conference of a more conciliatory
spirit. With this la said to go a i
recognition both of the necessity i
of making practicable arrange
ments with Germany and Russia
and of doing whatever can . be
done to prevent war and to clear
the way for disarmament. It Is
even suggested, though this may
be only an Inference, ..that the
French delegation has been so inp
pressed by the strength of this
current of opinion that Mr. Bar-"'
thou desires to convey personally
his impressions to Premier Poin-
care,,and tnat this accounts zor
his plan of visiting Paris for the"
week end, a visit which at Paris
is said not to have been suggest
ed by the French government.
It is quite certain that in Eur
ope there is a strong popular de
mand both for peace and. for) a
