Both sides to the controversy eagerly

There has been bad blood for months
between Italy and the Jugo-Siavs, but

came to a climax, however, when the
insurgents of Montenegro decided upon
a union with Serbia and deposed King
Nicolas, who is the father of the Ital-

Rival aspirations for the control of
the eastern Adriatic form the chief
basis OF the conflict. 1t has been long

Washington, Dec. 9.-How will Di-
rector General of Railroads McAdOO
be paid when he relinquishes his place
on the payroll Of the government as
secretary Of the treasury, week from
next Tuesday? The law says that no
one may receive two salaries from the
government. That is why he received
no salary as director general Of rail
roads and has had only his cabinet
salary.
The law also says that no one may
serve the government without COM
pensation. That is why there have
been dOllar-a-year men in Washington.
Regional directors under the director
general receive salaries Of $4,000

Mr. McAdOO is to continue as the gov

after he leaves the treasury, he must
receive some salary.
In the absence of any specific appro-
priatiOn by congress, it is understood
that the presidents broad powers I'M

fix a salary. Whether that salary will
be a dollar or $4,000 year is entire
ly in the discretion Of the president.

Scheme for Unified Telegraph, TeIe-

Washington, Dec. "a comprehen-

telegraph and cable system in the
United States has been presented to
the postmaster general by Theodore n
Vail, president of the American Tele-

letter to Mr.. Burleson, Mr.. Vail de-
clares for a unified system and sug-

Mr.. Vail would have a comprehen-

Americans.

American Army Of Occupation, Dec.
"a battalion of the Thirty-ninth in
fantry left Treves by train for Coblenz,
a four hours run.
The premature occupation of Co
blenz is due to the request of the Ger
man authorities, who are apprehen-
sive of conditions that might prevail
there after the withdrawal Of the Ger
man forces.
1t had not been expected there
would be any trouble at COblenz and
the burgomaster's appeal to send
troops was denied until it was supple
mented in writing by the retiring mil
itary commanders
This is the first time tas Americans
have utilized railway trains for their
advance into the territory from which
the GeSmans have withdrawn.
The main army continues it's ad-
vance in the usual manner and Satur-
day night had reached the general line
Of GeldsOrfau, Mayen, Kloeng and
Schwarden.
All reports continued to indicate the
Germans were withdrawing in orderly
manner and that the inhabitants of
villages occupied by the Americans
were refraining from antagonistic
acts.
Amsterdam, Dec 9.-Especial praise
is given the American troops of occu-
patton by a representative Of the Ber-
lin foreign ministry on his return from
Treves, according to a Berlin message
He said:
"The judgment Of all Germans, such
as shopkeepers, hotelkeepers and men
on the streets, is that the behavior of
the Americans is blameless.
Everything is following it's normal
course and the American columns are
paying the greatest regard to civilian
street traffic. No DEGREES have been
issued which could in any way alarm
the population"
