Some changes in policy by the a...e were hoped for by officials here, particularly in those policies which woui-j tend to show a disposition to maxe concessions to soviet Russia. WO (OMESSIO! TO SOVIET President Wilson and Secretary of State Colby have left no doubt that th s giivernnitnt does not intend to rttngnize or gU" an concessions to ;.:rt Russia although they state that "The U. S. maintains unimpaired1 its faith in the Russian people, in their liin character and their future.' That the U. S. will not participate in any general peace conference with soviet Russia is made plain in the noie to the Italian ambassador, official,, pointed out.

It is unable to perceive, however, that a recognition of the soviet regime would promote, much less accomplish this object, and it is therefore, averse to anv dealings with the soviet regime beyond the most narrow- boundaries 'o w hich a discussion of an armistice c-n be confined.' MA.HK AS IN' liRRMAM! CASK President Wilson is employed th same methods with Russia which he employed with Germany, officials point ed out, he is appealing to the Russian people and ignoring the regime which he feels does not represent the srttu mass of the Russian people. The president advocates tha Bolshevism be attacked by befriending M. and after declaring that assurancees must be given the Russian people, that their national territory will be left Intact, the note delarest "Thus only can the Bolshevik regime be deprived of its false but effective appeal to Russian nationalism and com pelled to meet the inevitable rhajtange, of reason and self respect which the Russian people, secure from Invasion and territorial violation, are sure to address to a. social philosophy that degrade sthem and a tyranny which oppresses them. AS TO POLISH INTKfiltlTV While advucatlnir that "the territorial integrity and true boundaries of Russia shell be respected, the American government will Insist upon the same unequivocal ground with regard to Polish Integrity, the note declares. The U. S. is determined to employ "all available means' to back its policy stated in the note the document decl a res .

This statement of policy Is directly opposite to that which has been pursued by Premier Lloyd George of Great Britain and other Kuropean statesmen which have encouraged the fotmatlon of independent states and who are reported to have extended promises of support to them In exchange for concessions. A shaft at Japan is seen by many In that portion of the note which declares that this. government favors th "withdrawal of all foreign troops from' territory embraced by these (Russian) boundaries. v This satement is believed to be aimed at the Japanese occupation of Siberia.
