Paris, June 13.
The previous cable stated:- A divergence of views between Britain and France in regard to The Hague conference is revealed in the British reply to M. Poincare's memorandum. The reply strongly opposes any preliminary discussion of principle on the ground that it would create an opportunity for Bolshevist propaganda, and also opposes the French suggestion that the Russian memorandum of May I should be withdrawn before the .conference because the! memorandum was superseded by decisions at the plenary session. The French contention that foreign claimants are entitled to demand the return of private property is not acceptable, because every State is entitled compulsorily to acquire private property on payment of just and real compensation. The French contention that a non- Russian commission must first agree to a complete plan for the restoration of Russia is also inacceptable, because it presumes the right to dictate to Russia on a thousand matters absolutely subjec: to Russia's own control as a sovereign State.]
