BY KARL H. VON WIEGAND, Special Cable Dispatch. Genoa, April 11.—"The hatreds and resentments of war must be forgotten here. There are no longer friends and enemies, victors and vanquished; but only men and nations striving in com mon for the attainment of a lofty ideal. "This conference must re-establish mutual confidence in order that nor mal business may be restored." With these words as the kneynote. the greatest conference ever held ,for the reconstruction of the world's busi ness was opened by Premier Facta, of Italy, In his address of welcome Monday afternoon. “Square Deal for Everybody.” “A square deal for everybody must be the watchword ot this conference. We must depart from the old caste system. There can be no distinctions between great powers if we are going to get anywhere in this conference.” This was the principle enunciated by Premier Lloyd Oeorge, of England, at the preliminary meetings of the five convening powers. It was given out Monday as the principle upon which the conference will proceed. My dispatches of Sunday which declared that Lloyd George had won out and that the French were defeat ed all along the line in the prelimin ary fight lasting more than three hours, were confirmed in ail details Monday.

Sir Edward Grigg, secretary to Lloyd George who Is functioning in place oC Lord Riddell at a conference with British and American corres pondents. told the delegates of Sun day's low. He expressed regret that he was unable to make the story pub lic Sunday, but declared that he was bound by a promise not disclose the details of the controversy-. Henceforth, he said, the British delegation would give out to the British and American press all that happens. Sir Edward also confirmed that Japan and Italy have lined up wtth Britain against France an 1 Belgium. He especially praised Italy's firm Vil titude for a square deal for Germany and Russia. Only Americans Ars Absent. Thirty-four nations of*the world in 26 groups gathered around the double horseshoe tables in the ancient Par azzo 9an Giorgio, once one of the first international banks of the world, to attempt to stand the economic egg of the world on end. Only North and South America are absent from this conference of bankrupt buyers. Only the appalling economic and financial situation of Europe and the certainty of collapse of the whole business structure have bridged the hatreds of v/ar and revolution and brought the enemies, communists and capitalists, together. For the first time in five years communist Russia was eye to eye with the capitalistic western world across the conference table. Empha sizing the democratic character and basic equality of all nations, the blondes of Scandinavia and other superior races sat down with the swarthy Albanians, and the latter were given the place of honor at the head of the voting list because thjj name of their country begins with tKe first letter of the alphabet. Albanians for Amity. The opening session of the confer ence was auspicious fn the high notes of all speeches from Premier Facta, Premier Lloyd George and Minister of War Barthou of France down to Chancellor Wirt!', of Germany and Foreign Minister Tchiteherin of Russia. "if tlie Genoa conference fails de spair will creep Jipon the world; If it succeeds it will illuminate the gloom,” predicted Lloyd George, who added: "The economic world is not two hemispheres, but Is one unbroken sphere. Therefore we regret the ab sence of the great western republic.” “Justification for Caution.’’ The British premier admitted, how ever, that there was much Justifica tion for American caution, hut he hoped that "Genoa, the illustrious birthplace of the discoverer of Amer ica. may render another service to America by enabling America to dis cover Europe.” The quay on which Giorgio stands presented a military picture. Large detachments of Infantry and cavalry in trench helmets helied the peaceful nature of (be conference by barring all approaches for blocks around.
