REPLY SENT TO FRENCH FEELER United States Government Sent Sympathetic Reply To French Note Washington, May 17. —(Special to Daily Democrat)—The United States Ims “replied sympathetically" to a “feeler" from the French government for American participation in a conference in Europe or strictly economic maters, ft was learned at the state department today. This government, however, did not state it would attend such a conference . The "feeler" from the French government, which is opposing the Hague conference on June 15, because Russian affairs are to lie again discussed there, was received shortly before the invitation from the allied powers asking that the United States attend the meeting in the Netherlands capital. The "sympathetic” reply to this note was rosi>onsible for reports in Europe that the United States would attend the Hague conference. It indicates that the United States in the near future may join in a strictly economic conference, whose honest purpose is the readjustment of conditions 'n Europe. Such a conference, however must be entirely different from he Genoa conference which this gov- • -ninent has regarded as more polilicnl than economic. Government officials today declined i outline definitely the conditions tin- •' r which this government might en- : the Hague meeting other than to r iterate the While House statement yesterday that the door is not entirely closed to American participation, respite the rejection of the invitation. Russia today returned a favorable ■ ply to the Allied proposal for a con- ■' retico at the Hague next month George Tchitcherin formally informed the political subeommission of the Genoa conference that Russia accept I the plan, only reserving the right to introduce certain amendments to the genrela call for the conference.
