FATE OF POLAND
HANGS IN BALANCE
MUCH DEPENDS ON DIsPo-
SITION OF DANZIG.
Polish People in United States
to Offer Up Earnest
PRAYERS.

Washington, April 23.--The fate of
Poland now depends on the final dis
position of Danzig, the ancient Polish
seaport, by the peace. conference, ac
cording to statement today by John
f. Smulski, president of the National
Polish Department of America.
III Danzig is allowed to remain in
German hands, or even if 1t is inter-
nationalized, as has been proposed,
Poland will become a weak, interior
state, dependent on Germany for its
economic existence" said Smuiski ut
is in recognition, of this situation that
on Sunday more than 10000 900 Polish
people throughout the United States
will meet to pray and petition that
the Polish claims be allowed.
ut is not only for Poland they are
asking. but for the peace of the world.
Poland desires not only to be free,
but to be a strong arm in the pres
ervation of peace of mankind. If the
peace conference leaves Poland with
its rail and water connection with
the friendly nations wholly in German
control the task of sustaining life
and order will consume all of Poland's
energy"
Smulski pointed out that Danzig,
was taken from Poland at the time
of the first partition, and that the
German. population in Danzig Is
there by reason of deliberate coloni-
cation by the Germans, supported by
the government, and the expatriation
of the Poles. H. ia. A
III these methods are to be consid-
cred as confirming title to stolen
property, real peace and Justice are
far removed Smulski asserted.

The Dalmatian port of Spala.o,
which is the headquarters OF the

II is explained that the orders 10

received.
II has just developed that the Brit

THINKS CRISIS
WILSON PASS
Secretary Lane Formally In
dorses Presidents Attitude
on Fiume Question.
MATTER GOOD JUDGMENT
Few Things That Should Not
Be Overlooked in Contro-
versy, Pointed Out.

Washington, April rs. - Official
Washington today believed that the
crisis caused by President Wilson's
refusal to sanction the disposition Of
Fiume to italy would speedily pass
and that the Italians would not
withdraw from the peace confer
ence.
Secretary Of the Interior Lane, in
a formal statement, today indorsed
President Wilson's attitude and as
serted that the Ffume decision was
but a question of good judgment"
Secretary Lane today issued brief
statement explaining. as he said,
"one or two matters connected with
the Fiume situation that should not
be overlooked"
He stated: First, Fiume was not
to be given to Italy by the secret
treaty made on Italy's entrance into
the war. called the London treaty.
Under this treaty Fiume was to go
to Croatia, which is now a part OF
Jugo- Slavia. And this Is where
President Wilson wishes r to go
now. '-.as - ---e--. So r. Z =
lNN.Skcond, the question of giving
Fiun1e to Italy thus becomes ques-
tion Of good Judgment, and President
Wilson and Premiers Lloyd George
and Clemenceau unitedly concluded
that to give Fiume to Italy would be
unjust to the new republics east OF
the Atjriatic. as Fiume Is the only
port on the eastern side of the Adri-
attic which can be serviceable as a
sea. entrance to Jugo- -Slavia and ad-
joining countries. :.
Third, the Italian claim is based
on Italian desires, not on my right
other than the claim that as its
people are Italians, they should be-
come a part of italy as they were
100 years agd. But to crafty this
desire now would be manifestly to
wrong others and thus maintain q
sore spot on the Adriatic which
would cause constant irritation.
italy. with Venice and Trieste, can
live happily and independently with
out Fiume, while the young empires
on the eastern side of the Adriatc
could not have free life without
access directly to the werld by wa
ter. :.
Poindexter Finds Fault.
Senator Poindexter. of Washing |
ton, this afternoon telegraphed TO ms
office a bitter arraignment OF the
presidents attitude, declaring that IL
is quite presumptuous for US, the
allies having won the victory, to step
in and undertake to dictate the terms
of peace"
THE Italian situation he stated, |
lis a typical case in which the league
OF nations would require us to in
tervene to enforce peace. The Amer
lean people will not consent to levy
taxes and sacrifice soldiers in any
such quarrel. Having delayed declar-
ing war on Austria and never. de-
claring war on Turkey or Bulgaria,
1t is quite presumptuous now for US.
the allies having won the victory, to
step in and undertake to dictate the
terms OF peace. Europe knows more
about its affairs than Col. House. or
his secretary, can learn in forty years.
II President Wilson would keep his
hands off, and devote his attention
to American affairs, a just peace
would be arranged in Europe in a
week"
