Pre- sdent Wilson is expected to visit
tomorrow afternoon at o'clock.
Regarding the Presidents conference
tomorrow with King Victor Emmanuel
of Italy. it is known the President feels
the warmest sympathy for the purposes
which led Italy to enter the war. New
crthelcss, the tentative lines laid out
in consequence of an investigation by
Colonel Edward M. House respecting
the probable extent of territory which
should GO to Italy, on the principle OF
racial or linguistic determination, do
not fully accord with the ideas of the
Italian government, which feels that it
should go further than is indicated by
this outline.
In Italy About January Is
This is one of the subjects which Mr..
Wilson discussed on his voyage to
France with Count di Cellere, whom he
is believed to have told the extent to
which the American representatives
were willing to go in the forthcoming
informal conferences with the prcmiers
OF the Entente governments in support
or ltaly's claims arising out of the war.
Unless the interview arranged be-
tween the President and the Italian
King causes a change in the programme
the President will visit Italy about the
middle of January.
Among those who signed the visitors
book yesterday II the Murat residence,
the temporary home of President Will
son, were Viscount Northcliffe, Paul
Painleve and Jules Mcline. former
French premiers.

Austria Probably Unable
To Pay Big War Indemnify
NeW York Tribune
WdshinQtOn Bureau

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.-There is
serious question whether an indemnity
of any appreciable proportions can be
collected from Austria. Hungary is
capable of paying her proportionate
part of an indemnity, as the loss Of
territory to be suffered by Hungary,
while considerable, willsnot altogether
impair her economic and financial
strength.
Austria, on the contrary, loses not
only Bohemia, but the extensive Jugo-
Slav areas, and, in all probability, Ga
licia, leaving only German Austria
which is inconsiderable and is incapable
of meeting extraordinary demands.
1t is assumed that Bohemia, Jugo-
Slavia and Galicia will not be called
upon to share with Austria the burden
of an indemnity, as there has been a
presumption, fictitious or real, that the
non German and non-Magyar portions
OF the Hapsburg empire were not re-
sponsible for the war-were. in fact,
opposed to it, and desired rather the
defeat of the empire, which would bring
to them their own freedom.
AS regards the pre-war Indebtedness
of the former empire, however, the
situation is entirely different. and all
of the populations included in it will
bear their proportionate part Of its
liquidation upon a basis to be deter
mined later.

Lasting Peace Omen
Seen by Wilson in
Paris C0rdiality

PARIS, Dec. 1S.-Prcsdent Wilson
gave his personal Impressions to-day
at meeting with the representatives
of the American press Of his expert
cnces thus far in France. At the same
time announcement was made that the
members of the American Commission
to Negotiate Peace would meet daily
with Che press. The President, in re-
sponse to a suggestion, said:
~ have been asked to say ftw
words in regard to my reception here.
The reception was so tredendous that
do not know what to say. l was de-
lighted with 1t, but | was delighted
for a special reason, which is not per-
sonal.
~ was saying to several Of our French
friends that | understood it, because
saw in the eyes of the crowd just
the feeling that | had for them and
was aware that it was but sort of
reciprocal feeling. But that moved me
very much, because, of course, it meant
more than mere generous cordiality on
the part of these delighted people.
at meant a thoughtful background
to the thing. which was very welcome,
and to come into that sort of feeling
in this wonderfully beautiful city mad >
combination of emotions that one
would not have more than once in a
lifetime. That is as well as I can put
it offhand."

Russian Enjoys in
Paris Are Forming
Peace Table Pleas

PARIS, Dec. 19.-Four ambassadors
Of the Kerensky regime in Russia met
in the Russian Embassy here yester-
Gay to discuss the Russian situation
and its relations to the peace confer
ence. Those attending the meeting
were; B. A. Bakhmetietf, accredited to
the United States; M. Malakoff, accrcd-
tied to France; M. Stakhovich, accred-
tied to Spain, and NJ. Giers, accredited
to Italy. NJ. Nabukoff, the Ambassa-
dor to- Great Britain, is expected. in
Paris in few days.
The first session was informal and
no decision was reached rs to how
Russia's interest will be laid before
the conference. The Russian Ambas-
sadors probably will meet the leading
peace delegates informally within the
next few days and ascertain the atti-
tude of the leading Entente Powers
before framing a definite statement as
to the position of Russia.
Much depends on the conferences of
the representatives of the United
States, Great Britain, France and
italy. The preliminary meetings Of
these representatives to determine the
broad principles of the conference are
awaited with much interest by the
minor powers. Russia, China, Serbia
and the other lesser Allies are work
ing informally preparing their own
cases
Tho headquarters of the different
peace missions are crowded with
agents of various countries seeking in-
formation about the probable number
of delegates to be accredited to each
nation and the programme of proca-

simultaneously, some Of those in
close contact with Mr.. Wilson are in
clined to the view that the President )
known views on certain points are
likely to undergo considerable modi-
tcation under the influence Of the
close contact which he is now making
with French sentiment and especially
with the facts Of the war as he
will see them at close range during his
visit to the devastated regions.
The average Frenchman is building

words are inadequate to convey the
sense Of hopeless horror that fills the

have done to France. This vision of
what German militarism really means
awaits Mr. Wilson's arrival in that
deso]ated land between Verdun and the
sea that was four years ago the rich
est part of France.
All that France asks is that the
President shall see it with his own
eyes. She is confident that after his
return the scales of justice will be
safe in Mr.. Wilson'S hands.

to the number of delegates who will
represent each country, the arrival Of
the British delegates being awaited.
The claims of the British colonies to
participation in the congress is re-
ceivirg serious consideration. AT the
same time it is feared that unless
some limitation is placed on the num-
ber of delegates the conference will
become too large to accomplish re-
suits.
Britain to Have Five
1t is understood that the British gov
ernmcnt proposes to have five dole
gates at the peace table, and that the
United States will have three repre-
sentatives at the conference.
The original plans contemplated the
conclusion of the conference in April
or May. Although there have been
many delays and some confusion in the
preliminary work of organization,
some OF the delegates, the Americans
included, are optimistic that the la
bors of the conference can be finished
by that time.
This mornings Paris newspapers
variously place the probable date of
the opening of the peace conference at
from January 10 to January Is. The
meetings preliminary to the conference
will take l.lace at the Ministry of For
eign Affairs, with Premier Clemenceau
presiding. Prior to this. extremely I'M

sion after brief visit.
Expects to Clear Differences
The hope is expressed by those
surrounding the President that ex-
changes of views will clear away any
partial Misunderstanding which may
exist in regard to Mr.. Wilson'S atti-
tude and prepare the way for the, as
semblage of the peace conference with
complexities removed, so that it will be
ready to deal with principles and any
outstanding differences of opinion that
remain. :?
In all his conferences the President
has taken opportunity to impress his
view. it IS said by those who are au-
thorized to speak for him. that no one
nation is entitled to assume the role
of master or dictate the manner or the
conditions of the representations of
others
There is some indication that consid-
cradle headway is being made in this
direction and that the members of the
American mission are now seeing their
way clearly. All express the convic-
ton that the delegates will enter the
conference in a spirit Of accommoda
ton.
Peace First Consideration
Some undercurrents are interpreted
as showing indications of regret be-
cause the acceptance of President Will
sons points in general way prevented
some nations from achieving tleir own
objects. which might have been gained
if Germany's collapse had been made
even more complete.
In reply it has been made plain to
ferred that the United States govern
meHt does not consider the war vic
tory of arms alone, and that victory
would be incomplete without an organ
ization of nations to guarantee world
peace.
President Wilson to-day paid his
first visit to the headquarters of the
American Mission, comforting briefly
with Colonel E. NJ. House, Secretary of
State Lansing, Henry White and others
and inspecting the organization now
rapidly taking shape. Mr.. Wilson
drove in an army motor car to the
Place de la Concorde, where all the
American activities are centred.
American Delegates Confer
Before the Presidents arrival the
American delegates conferred for two
hours regal ding general plans, mapping
out work and dividing it into sections.
Progress was reported in the forma-
tion of important branches of work
under the guidance OF American pro-
fessors, who have now virtually per-
fected their inquiries.
