Italian Parliment Backs Orlando i'm
Determination to Seize Fiume,
Grave International Situation

The sharp differences existing in the
Peace Conference between Premier Or
p lando and President Wilson, over the Adria-
tic question, came to an issue on April e.
when President Wilson issued a public
statement explaining his position.
The President declared that he could
never give his consent for Fiume, (the sea
port which is the bone of contention) to
that conditions existing at the time
the pact of London was signed (1915) have
been altered by the dissolution of Aus
tria-Hungary, and the establishment of new
Balkan states. He insisted that the dele
gates to the Peace Conference adhere tc
the fourteen points to which they had sub
scribed. eff those principles are to be ad-
hered to" he declared, "Fiume must serve
as an outlet for the commerce, not of Italy
but of the lands to the northeastward =
Hungary, Bohemia (Czecho Slovaka)
Roumania, and the states of the new Jugo-
Slav group"
He said that to assign Fiume to Italy
would be to create feeling that we had
deliberately put the port, upon which those
countries chiefly depend for access to the
Mediterranean, in the hands of power
of which these nations did not form an
integral part, and whose sovereignty must
inevitably seem foreign, not domestic
The President also declared that the fear
of aggression, existing at the time of the
pact of London, is no longer valid.
The Italian delegation Immediately de
clared its determination to stand firm on
the question of Fiume. Premier Orlando
and Baron Sonnino soon after withdrew
from the Peace Conference, and returned
to Rome with the declared intention of
placing the matter before the Italian Parlia-
ment.
On April %, the Italian Parliament, by
an overwhelming majority, and amid de
monstrations of wild enthusiasm, endorsed
Premier Orlando's policy for annexing
Fiume outright, the vote standing 382 to
40.
Premier Orlando is reported, in dis
patches from Rome, as admitting that the
world situation, at the present time, is
grave, and for Italy, Every grave"

A Million Boy Scouts

June Sth to 18th has ben designated
Boy Scout week by proclamation of
President Wilson, under the leadership
of William G. McAdoo, former Secre-
tary Of the Treasury and Chairman of
the Citizens National Committee. 1t
is hoped to increase the membership
to q million members. Any boy over
y years Of age may join.
We have heard OF mothers. Quaker
passivetist trained. stopping their
boys from going to Sunday School for
fear of them being asked to join the
Scouts, who have a military garb and
drill. It might be we'll for such to
read the following from the Maryland
Constitution adopted August 18th,
1776:
The doctrine of non-resistance
against arbitrary power and oppression
is absurd, stavish and destructive of
the good and happiness of man
kind Quaker ~passivity was not pos
sible until the Puritan sword subdued
the ~autocraey of Charles l and cut off
his head.
The people must be militant for
Truth and Righteousness to over awe
the rough necked and tough minded.
Quaker paSsivity may lead those of
mild manners and humble mind, but
not the militarist eager for personal
and national power.
In order to maintain a righteous
nation there must be a virile, militant
American citizenship, ready to fight
for principles of Liberty and Equality,
as the American people have done in
the World War, aItho we are not a
military nation.
Scout Principles
When joining the Scouts each boy
and girl takes the following obliga-
ton:
"On my honor l will do my best (1)
To do my duty to God and Country.
and obey the Scout laws. (2) To help
other people at all times. 81 To
keep myself physically strong men
tally awake and morally straight.
There are y Scout Laws which must
be obeyed. o. A Scout is trust
worthy, % Loyal, (3) Helpful, a.
Friendly, (5) Courteous, 90 Kind,
% Obedient, (8) Cheerful, 80
Thrifty, 40 Brave. (11) Clean, (12)
Reverent.
The Scout motto IS, BE Prepared"
IHIilS 4iiId=4S q GIIAt i ain = III q
state of mind and body to do his duty
and mceC every emergency.
Surely every mother wishes her boy
and girl to have these qualities Of body
mind and conscience. If she has not
trained him to have them. to join the
Scouts is the best place to learn them.
It will be wise for fathers and
mothers to read the above over and
measure The boys and girls by these
rules Of conduct which make them
virile, militant American citizens. 1t
was by having such qualities of body,
mind and spirit hat our forefathers
won their civil and religious liberties
and such qualities in boys and girls
are needed today and will be needed
in future years to maintain them.
Fathers and mothers think it over
and have your boys and girls join the
Scouts to make the militant army for
Truth and Righteousness a million.
