ITALIANS ARE Secretly
CONSOLIDATING POSITIONS

London, July 11.--''There LIS much
speculation in diplomatic quarters,
says the Daily Express editoria'ly. re
garding I'aiy's policy after peace with
Austria has been signed.
1T is asserted secret agreements
are already in existence between italy
Austria, having reference to the
Czecho-Slovak and Jugo-Slav states.
IT is alleged the Italians are Sc
cretly consolidating their positions to-
ward Hungary in the event their dis
pute with the Jugo-Slavs should de-
velop into open warfare.
in this connection it is pointed
out that Hungarion artillery Is being
uysteriously increased in strength
though II is known no new guns have
been supplied by Austria
The assumption prevails in certain
quarters that Italy is dissatisfied with
the peace and is preparing an active
policy against the Slav states, and that
when the road is cleared by the
Austro-German peace ratifications.
there will be a new orientation Of
Italian policy. aiming at a German

Senator Swanson's opinion, the treaty
was held back because there ID nc
immediate necessity for II. Germany
being powerless to make an attack"
But the anti-leaEue senators sug,
gest that the treaty was kept from
them because the president did not
wish TO confess the weakness OF his
league scheme
There is considerable difference Of
opinion among members OF the for
eign relations committee as to
whether or not the president should
be asked to appear before the com.
mittee to explain some OF the treaty
provisions. Senator Moses, of New
Hampshire. wants to Introduce q reso-
luton to ask the president to sit with
the committee every day until the
consideration Of the treaty is finished
The fact that this might upset the
presidents plans for his trans-cdnti-
metal speaking tour does not disturb
Senator Moses in the least.
Senator Moses made this statement:
Il think the president could do a
greater service by sitting with the
committee every day until the hear.
ings are finished than by making
speeches over the country"
Senator Borah also believe that in
asmuch as the president has stated
his willingness to appear. the commit
TO the dignity of the Office has been
set aside by the presidents statement.

Ward Distribution Plan of
Bond Issue Does Not Find
Favor With Organization.

Marked disapproval Of the ward
distribution plan recently adopted by
the common council for the apportion-
ment of the proposed $2.500, 900 bond
issue is being stronger and more evil
dent each Gay. The chamber of COM
merce and the Richmond Civic assoc
citation have gone on record as being
firmly opposed to the plan and
wherever business men discuss the
question. the general trend seems to
be Overwhelmingly in favor Of leaving
the distribution Of money for street

for in the recently adopted city char
ter.

who offered the substitute dividing
four-fifths of the sum equally among
the four wards of the city, represents
Madison ward, and citizens of the
Southside feel sure that most Of this
wards apportionment will be used in
repairing and constructing streets in
old Manchester.
A meeting of the Business Mems
club was held yesterday at 2 clock
to discuss the matter and the greater
part of the afternoon was spent in
hearing arguments for and against
the plan.
Both sides OF the question were ably
presented and, while no official action
was taken by the club. the concensus
of opinion seemed decidedly against
the plan adopted by the common
council.
Councilman Morgan r. Mills and
Alderman Fuller argued for equal dis
tribution and several members of the
club took the opposite view. Alder
man Fuller stated that he was oppos-
! ed to the plan. as a general thing. but
that. in his opinion, the exgencies

common councils action.
| Captain Mills made no excuses
whatever for the plan saying that it
was the one and only logical way to
| spend the funds, at this or any other
time. Captain Mills argument is
| based largely on the fact that the
present administration is guaranteed
to be in Office for only a short while
and that IL would be unwise to leave
such an important matter in the
| hands of persons yet unknown
| Supporters of the plan giving Di-
rector Boiling full sway In the dis
| tribution Of the funds assert that any
| director appointed to office must be
| given the benefit of the doubt and
assumed to be capable and conscien-
tious until proved otherwise
| While the Sullivan amendment pro-
viding for the dividing up of the en-
| tire bond issue between the wards is
being vigorously attacked, II is not in
variance with the provisions of the
new city charter. as has been ru-
| mored. The council Is fully at liberty
to prescribe the territory in which the
money be spent.
! AS the situation stands, the ordi-
nance has passed the common council
and has been sent on to the board of
aldermen for concurrence at the next
meeting. to he held Tuesday night.
| The sum of s2,5o0.000 is to be raised
in amounts OF 100000 each, bonds
to be issued yearly and the sum split
up among the four wards, $125,000 TO
| each.
