Laws to Enforce Prohibition.
The next step so far as Congress is
concerned will be to begin the shaping of
legislation for enforcing the complete
prohibition provided. The second section
OF the resolution provides that concur
rent powers In this sort Of legislation
are vested in the Congress OF the United
States and the several States. No
definite plans as to the form this legis-
lation shall take have yet been formu-
lated. and there ia grave doubt whether
any attempt will be made to force
through this legislation at this session
Of Congress.
1t is Congress to which the nation
must look for this additional legislation
first. 1t Is believed. as the legislatures of
many States will not be in session for
any extended period. and II ia believed
that II would be a great mistake to per-
NIT the amendment TO become effective
without providing enforcement legisla-
ton. In its present form no penalty is
provided for infractions OF the newly
made law OF tho land and open evasion
would be possible with the Government

as to the proper form the additional

Senator Sheppard believes the legis-

ITALY STATUS CLEARED

By Associated Press.
PARIS, May 6.-It was officially an
nounced last night that the ICelim-
inaries of the peace treaty will be
communicated to the allied delegates
this afternoon and to the German
plenipotentiary on Wednesday after
noon.
How Decision Was Reached.
The decision of Premier Orlando
and Foreign Minister Sonnino to re-
turn to Paris was taken spontaneous
ly after conferences in Rome during
the last few days, according TO the
Temps. The Council of Three did not
reply to the telegram received from
Baron Sonnino on Saturday.
Camille Barrere, the French ambas-
sador in Rome, has been busily occu-
pied during the past few days In
smoothing away differences, according
to Liberte, which adds that the CO.
operation of Thomas Nelson Page,
American ambassador to italy, was
most valuable.
1t is reported here today that the
Fiume question has been fully COM
promised with the Italian Govern
ment Fiume remaining an autono-
nous port for two years, after which
it will go to Italy. In the meantime,
Italy will be building another port of

TRENTON, May 6:-It may be
necessary for New Jersey to alter its
plans for big review of the returned

to the change in the plans of the War
Department for the return of troops

bers at stated dates. The change
brings the Hath Infantry, of the 29th
Division, into port today at Newport
News, and the announcement from
the. Var Department- that the 18th
Division would arrive practically at
one time the latter part of May, has
been dispelled by the fact that some
of it's units are due in a few days.
Under these circumstances ] do
not see that it will be possible at this
particular time to arrange for any
review at Camp Dix" said a state
here today, (which would be in any
way complete. Some time later. if
we actually get a substantial number
of Jersey troops catered at Camp Dix

for me to get in touch with General
Scott and arrange for the review, CIV
ing the people of the State plenty of
notice. Until such time, owing to the
plans for arrival of transports going

excellent plan to secure permission
from the War Department for troops
to parade in cities of sections from
which they hail, enroute from the
port of debarkation to the demobill-
Zation camp. ! refer to the plan
which Camden, for instance, has for
parading the 114th Regiment, while
1t is enroute from Newport News to
Camp Dix. / believe the War De-
partment has practically consented to
arrange this. l observed, during my
recent trip in the West, that practi-
cally all of the public demonstrations
of returning troops in Western, cities
were of this kind-that is, parades of
regiments or other units of division
in cities on the route between the
port of deharkation and the demobil-
ization camp. / am hopeful that the
War Department will grant all of
these requests where there is not too
much delay or expense involved in
transporting the troops. OF course,
/ can realize that it might be impos
sible where some of the cities intcr
estcd are located a long way off of
the direct route between the port and
the camp"
Governor Edge has made it plain
that he has not abandoned the idea
of the review at Camp Dix. even
while he was going to endeavor to
meet the needs of New Jersey cities
by getting the War Department to
permit reviews while troops are en-
route. He said that he would confer
with General Scott as soon as sufii-
cient Jerseymen were located within
the reservation.
