London, July 27,
Boulogne, despite of the urgenty of many damestie problems, shows Mr. Lloyd George's decisign to confer with M. Millerand at the transcendent importance attached to the Bolshevist saggestion Entente as well as the Russian border States, which is tantamount for a London Conference embodying the leading members of the
to a demand for a fresh world congress, 'involving the affairs of Europe and Asia, and possibly interesting the United States.
Such a Conference would discuss not only the political frontiers but also economic understanding, including adequate provision for new Russian outlets in the Baltic, the Black Sea and the Mediter- ranean, involving the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus.
The Soviet propaganda in the Middle East will certainly be questioned.
