Enrico Arlotta Says He Will
Arrange for Loan to Pay

New York, May ll.-Enrico Ar
lotta, head OF the Italian commission
which has just arrived in this country,
received newspaper men today and
discussed with them the purposes Of
his mission and the war situation gen.
orally. 10

great satisfaction we had in seeing
the United States approve the pur-
pose OF our war, which is the cause
Of liberty and justice for all people.

eminent to express the sentiment of
the Italian government and people Of
the greatest friendship and admira-
ton for the American nation.
80 Will Arrange Loan.
1--WE do not need men at the front,
because we have accomplished the
greatest work any nation could ac-
corplish In providing men for the
war. We, OF course, shall be glad
to arrange a war loan in America
with which to pay for what we have
purchased here, without disturbing
exchange rates.
What we want above everything
else is ships to carry provisions and
war materials and we are sure the
great industrial power Of this coun-
try will be amply sufficient for our
wants"
Mr.. Arlotta was asked If the food
shortage mad become sufficiently
acute in Italy to cause talk of a
separate peace.
No Peace Talk Now.
"Never mind peace talk or separate
peace" fie replied, with considerable
emotion. Italy will not make a
separate peace in any case. We are
bound on this point to our allies and
we will never separate our action
