ITALIAN CABINET CRISIS;
SONN|N0 CHIEF CAUSE
Climax Reached When Mission to
United States Is Considered.
Embassy Here Not Informed.

ROME. via Paris. Juno IA crisis
in the Italian cabinet has developed when
least expected. only a few days before
the reopening Of parliament. set for June
IA. For some time a disagreement be-
tween the members Of the cabinet had
been know to exist, especially between
Baron Sonnino, minister of foreign at
fairs, and the other ministers.
The friction reached climax when the
members of the Italian commission were
to be selected Then Baron Sonnino put
his veto on the appointment Of several
persons whom the other ministers con-
sidered most suitable for the task and
declared he would resign IL their appoint
ment was insisted upon. Wishing to
avoid a crisis in such a grave moment of
the nations history. the cabinet yielded to
Sonnino's opinion.
This was one of the chief causes Of de-
lay In appointing the mission. in addition
to the refusal of the Duke Of the Abruzzf
to return to America, for personal reasons.
The life Of the cabinet, however, seemed
a assured. particularly after the recent sue
cesses on the Carso front, when suddenly
a proclamation was published announcing
the independence Of Albania under an
Italian protectorate.

Exemption Regulations Prepared.

Regulations governing exemptions
under the army CONSUMPTION act and
governing the exemption boards in
their work have been prepared by Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder. and will
be submitted to Secretary Baker for
approval. They will not be made pub
lie until approved by Secretary Baker
and President Wilson.
Gen Crowder believes no class should
be exempted as such. but that local
boards should decide on the circum-
stances in each individual case. He
fayors use of some device such as
Jury wheel for drawing the names of
those to be examined by the exemption
boards.
When the provost marshal generals
Office closed last night thirty-three
states had sent in complete returns:
They showed total registration Of
6,358.388, compared to census allotments
totaling 7,063.4S2. The returns during
of previous reports and predictions as
to the grand total that would be shown
by all the states ranged from 100000
to e.25o.o0o
In the thirty-three states reporting
the white registration was 4.817,980,
co!ored. s30,586: aliens. 4s2,43s. and
alien enemies. $500. The possible ex-
emptions indicated were 3,439,527.
A request that labor men be appointed
to all exemption boards under the selec
tive draft law has been presented to the
Gompers
1T can readily be seem" said Mr.. Com
pers in a statement. that II there is not a
man on each of these boards who has
personal knowledge OF workers problems
growing out Of their relation to industry.

Agreement Hoped For.

AS the foreign minister has admitted
that 1t would perhaps have been better
to submit the proclamation of Albania's
independence to the council of ministers
before publishing 1t. hopes are enter
tanned that an agreement will be
reached before the reopening of the
chamber. Naturally those already
strongly antagonistic to the premier are
desirous of discussion in the chamber
and senate with view of giving some
indication to the king of the best
means to solve the crisis.
Some still trust that the influence of
the king and the patriotism of Premier
Boselli and the other ministers may be
strong enough to keep the ministry in
office. The king has arrived in Rome
from the front and will take the stu
alton in hand.
Among those ministers who have
threatened to resign are Leonida Ris-
solati, leader of the reformist social
lists: Signor Bononi, also a reformist
socialist and minister of public works:
Signor Comandini. republican, and Sig
nor Fera, minister of posts
