(By The A sociated Press.) Soviet Russia's re portod refusal to attend any disarm ament conference held on Swiss soil has brought about a dramatic poll tical situation In Switzerland. The whole matter goes bock to the assassination by Maurice Conrad!, r Swiss engineer, of Vaslav Vorosky Soviet envoy to the Lausanne confer ence In May, 1923, and Conradl'i subsequent trial and acquittal. Fear is expressed that Russian hos tility to Switzerland as a result of the Vorosky Incident and the Soviet's repeated declarations that it will at tend no conferences on Swiss soil, may eventually forco tbe league of nations to move to some city out side this country. Conradl assassinated Vorosky and wounded two of his companions at Lausanne in May, 1923. He surren dered to tho police Justifying his act as one of vengeance for the mur der of relative by the Bolsheviks in Russia. i ne assassination created a great stir In Moscow but nothing to com pare with the fooling which followed Conradl's acquittal after a trial In November, 1923. The Soviet govern ment pronounced o formal boycott against Swiss citizens, declaring: 'We shall have no trade or deal ings with tho Swiss and neither shall thoy come here nor our pepolc go to Switzerland."
