Italy's delegation at the peace con-
terence seems to be showing a dis
position toirecede from the extreme
attitude which it had taken and
which have; brought an admittedly
grave situation ythe work Of re-
storing peace. Reports from Paris
indicate e willingness on the part of
the Italians to listen to suggesttons

Italy and Jugo-slavia regarding the

Rival claims of China and Japan to

soviet government in Hungary has
been crushed, but. the situation is still
obscure. The party that has gained
control is not definitely known.
Munition and arms factories in Buda-
pest are in full operation, it is said.
The, report that the soviet regime
has been overthrown in Turkey is
doubted in London, where 1t is said
that II there was any truth in the
rumor there would have been mes:

by the British warships now lying be-

The Russian bolshevik repulse on
the northern front was at the hands
Of the Poles who have taken Vtlna,
and have pierced the bolsheyik line
to the south. Vilnaswas the nearest
approach Of the Russian bolshevik
