ITALY TO LIMIT DOMINATION
Can Gain No Advantage by Undue Ex-
pansIon on Eastern Shores of
Adriatic, Declares Writer.

1t is, of course, evident that Italy
has no advantage to gain from an un-
due expansion of her territorial hold
lngs on the eastern shores of the Ad-
riatic, Guglielmo Ferrero writes in the
Atlantic. Here the Italian population
lives only on the coast, or near it, and
for this reason Italy cannot spread
her domination far into the interior
without mourning the risk of coming
into serious and severe conflict with
the subject Slavic population, or with
those Slavic states which will be in
position to intervene in their defense.
Italian mastery of the eastern coast
would therefore be limited to n thin
littoral strip of land, and one need not
be a great strategist to understand
what a disadvantage 1t would be for
Italy to have to defend a long line of
frontier a few dozen kilometers from
the coast, behind which would lie a
vast hinterland occupied by people
seething with discomfort at being cut
off from the sea.
If Italy, then does not wish to be-
come involved in long and arduous
wars for the conquest of this hinter-
land, her purposes will be best served
by reducing to minimum her terri
torial annexation on the further shore
of the Adriatic.

PREMIER OUTLINES

LLOYD GEORGE DECLARES GER

Challenges the Good Faith of the Ger

Britain enters peace conference the
Germans must learn the full meaning
of the word restoration" and learn
to utter that word to begin with"
Challenging the good faith of the
German emperor and Chancellor Mich
aelis in their peace talk, which he de-
nounced as subterfuge for the Prus-
sian war lords to gain time for the
next time, the premier shouted:
There must be no more next time
Don't let us repeat this horror.

fully, courageously and resolutely
eliminated war from amongst the

nation al liberty, whether for great ma
tons or for small nations, can never
again be challenged.
the nations of the world have been
climbing painfully up the steps that
led to national independence and self
resi- ect and now comes a great
power with brute force to thrust the
nations back crushed and bleeding
into the chasm of servitude. That is
what we have been fighting"
Replying to the German emperor's
assertion that Germany is carrying on Il
defensive war, Premier Lloyd George
said:
"He knows, he must know, that that
Is untrue. That is not why he went to
war. That is not why he is at war
now. He talks modestly about defend
ing German soil. Who ever wanted to
invade Germany? Even now neither he
nor his new chancellor says that they
will be satisfied with German SOIL"

GERMAN CABINET
GIVEN A SHAKE UP
OPPONENT OF RUTHLESS U-BoAT
WARFARE WILL SUCCEED
DR.. ZlMMERMANN.
German Chancellor Names as Foreign
Office Head Diplomat Who Opposed
Submarine Tactics Inaugurated
To Destroy Shipping.

Berlin.-The official announcement
was made on August 6 that five min
listers of state, including Foreign Sec
rotary Zimmerman and four secre-
taries of state, including Finance Min
lister LentZe and Interior Minister Won
Loebell, had resigned their portfolios.
DIR. Richard Won Kuehlmann, the
German ambassador TO Turkey, has
been appointed secretary for foreign
affairs in succession to DIR. Zmmer-
mann.
In a character sketch of DR.. Rich
ard Won Kuehlmann Gust appointed
German secretary for foreign affairs)
the Nieuwe Courant of The Hague
says that DR.. Won Kuehlmann has al
ways been vigorous opponent of
ruthless submarine warfare. He is
also, says the newspaper, disciple
of the policy of doing everything pos
sible to avoid the further alienation of
Great Britain, believing that after-the-
war friendship between Great Britain
and Germany is necessary to the lat
ter.
DIR. Won Kuehlmann, the Nieuwe
Courant adds, is an anti-annexationist
and the newspaper expresses the
opinion that in the foreign secretary
ship he will do his utmost to bring
about al. understanding with England
at the earliest possible time.
The comment of the Berlin news
papers on the new appointment of i'm
perial and Prussan ministers takes
the line that no great advance has
been made in the direction of parlia-
meniariSin.
The Tageblatt regards the changes
as unimLortant for the development
of the empire. The Vossische Zeitung
says the new government is not likely
to give the impression of being of the
parliamentary order. The Woke lei
tung comments that the most favor
able thing that can be said about the
development is that there has been :ln
infusion of fresh blood into the
bureaucracy.

CUMBERLAND. Aug. 15.-Cum-

army of $4,000 men TO be raised

raised from 125 to III men. The
county quota outside of Cumberland
has been correspondingly reduced
from 292 to 246, the total for the en-
tire county remaining the same, All
men. Notice of the change, which
was due to a mistake when the
quotas were assigned, was received
by the local exemption board yester-
day from Adjutant4G General Warield.
The change probably will mean the
summoning Of about 200 more regis

board. Barely half Of Cumberland's
new quota has been obtained, ap-
proximately 80 men having been
certified to date.
Draft Board No. 2 has sent out a

examination. This board, which rep
resents the sections outside of Cum
