A tentative suggestion from the

Italy, is acute, today swung the at

eminent his initial report of agree
ments at the greatest war parley in
American history.
Balfour's report wilt tell our Europ-
can allies that the fist problem set
ted was shipping.
Balfour's report will be made pub
lie in London, probably within the
next forty-eight hours, one of the
commissioners said.
Closeted in the small Office he has
chosen for his historic work. in the
Sixteenth street mansion, the dean
of diplomats wrote in effect that the
British and French commissions have
expressed their wishes to the Ameri-
can government concerning the part
it shall play in the war.
The American government has
assured them its complete support
and cooperation in getting precisely
what they ask for.
Balfour will say that the American
government asked how the allies
want shipping handled; with a pre-
ponderance of men, munitions or
food; and that after threshing the
question out among themselves the
British commission asked an equal
division between munitions and food.
The supplying of American fight
ing men, it was agreed between Bal
four. General Bridges and Admiral
