reason for the calling Of the cleo.

ITALIAN TROOPS DISEM-
BARK AT SALONIKA.

Paris. Aug. 20. Italian
troouS began to disembark at Sa-
loniki Sunday, according to a Ha-
vas dispatsh from that point.
The Italians passed through Sa-
loniki to'camp, preceded by mil
itary bands of the allies, and
cheered by the people.
Active participation by Italian
troops in the SalOniki campaign
would mean the existence of
state of war between Germany
and Italy.
Germany is directing the Oper-
ations against the allies on this
front, and as the official German
reports show, has forces there.
Some Austrian troops also prob
ably are employed. and possibly
Turks, but the major part of the
army is made up of Bulgarians.
Recent reports have indicated the
withdrawal Of Austrian troops
from the Balkans for use on the
Russian and Italian fronts.
As the allies are believed to
have q force Of some 100000 Brit
ish, French and Serbian troops
on the Saloniki front. the sending
of achievements at this time
just after the opening of HOSTILE
ties on large scale, would indi-
ca te that the allies have embark.
ed on a campaign of extensive
proportions.
ITALY, which has n considerable
surplus of troops. has been urged
to take a more active part in the
Balkan operations, but was be.
lieved to have rcfrained, partly
on account of the fact that she
was not at war with Germany.
There have been several recent in.
dications. however. that a dccla-
ration of hoStilitics was forth.

to occupation of the Albanian
port Of Avlona, which was effect
ed before Italy declared war on
Austria.

CARRANXA DECREE.

Washington, Aug. %. The
American government will not
recognize the recently promulgat.
ed decree of the Carranza govern.
mcnt requiring foreign investors
in Mexico to agree i'm advance not
to claim the protection of their
home governments i'm the event of
differences arising between them
and the Mexican govrnment.
The state department probably
will have nothing to say with re-.
"ard TO the new CarranZa decree
until n case arises which involves
IN American citizen. Officials
pointed out that the United
St0tcS could hardly protest
against the new decree i'm the alb.
Scnce Of a specific case involving
m American investor i'm Mexico.
It was explained. also. that no
American citizen can renounnce
his rights under existing treaties.
So long as he is an American cit.
izcn these rights adhere. The
only way i'm which they can he
renowned is to rcnounce Amcri.
can citizenship. When the latter
step is taken the party involved
has no further claim to American
rights.
So far as foreign subjects be-
ing governed entirely by Mexican
laws, this is said to have always
been the case. An American who
becomes a resident Of any foreign
country is subject 10 its laws &.
Where Americans fail to observe
the laws of foreign countries they
ret scant sympathy from the
Washington government. On the
other hand. where the authorities
Of a foreign government seek to
take advantage Of American citi.
zens. there is no hesitation in in
voking Diplomatic aid.
Officials here do not under
stand that the new Carranza de-
cree is retroactive. If this is the
case II will not he possible for

nrivp American citizens Of prop
prtv they now hold for failure ia
