jectiye behind President Wilson's ad-
vocacy Of the proposed inter-allied war
council
The United Press was able to make
this statement on the basis Of informa-
tion of unquestioned authority today as
the American commissioners held their
first formal meeting with the British
war leaders in Downing street.
It is to insure the organization of
such a council that the American com
mission headed by Colonel House is in
Europe. Il is to insure such declara-
ti6n made binding upon all the allies as
well as to stiffen the offensive that the
council is desired by the United States
Americas immediate aim and the big
task assigned to House will be to in
duce every one of the allied nations to
throw every card on the table. TO state
every demand. and present every claim
of the war From the entire lot will
then be selected those which are basic
which are predieated upon broad hui
manitariumism which justifes the
allies claims as champions Of the rights
Of little nations which arc aimed at
freeing civilization from the menace of
militarisn and which are in truth cal
culated to make the world safe for
democracy.

WEBB MILLER.

LONDON, Nov. 20.-Censored dis
patches received today from Italian
headquarters pointed out the possible
necessity of abandoning the Piave river
line in order TO complete separation TO
resume the offensive. But a withdrawal
means the loss OF Venice and Treviso.
Coincident with his possible signin-
cant precautionary note sounded from
headquarters the italian press accord
ing to word received here is urging the
public not to become unduly optimistic.
London newspapers today followed this
same course. So far the Piave line has
been impregnable to the Austro- German
assault.
One reason for the note Of caution
against undue optimism was the i'm
portance attached IN some quarters to
yesterdays official report that the Ital-
ians hsd resumed the offensive in the
Asiggo region.
