Polk C0nfers on u. S.
Action if Spalato Is
R0ided BY d'Annunzi6

LONDON, Nov. 24.-Frank L. Polk
Under Secretary Of State and head of
the American pence delegation, con-
ferrcd with Rear Admiral Harry S
Knapp, commander of the United
States naval forces in European wa
ters, and other naval officers this af-
ternoon. The American naval position
with respect to Dalmatia was dis
cussed. 1t has been a question in the
minds of American naval officers here
as to just what might happen in con-
nection with the American forces in
the Adriatic should D'Annunzio at
tempt raid on Spalato, whore the
American ships have their base.
Great surprise has been expressed
in naval circles respecting the action
of the Italian Admiral Milo, at cara
where he cordially greeted D'Annunzic
and Joined in his movement. 1t is
nuthoritatively learned that Admiral
Milo led the American officers to be-
lieve that he would at least remain
neutral should D'Annunzio attempt
further aggression.
Commander A. S. Hickey. of the U
S. S. Maddox, VINO has just returned
from the Baltic, was called into the
conference to give first-hand nforma-
ton on recent happenings in the Bal
tic States and northern Russia.

Police Will Disregard
Irish Hunger Strikes

DUBLIN. Nov 24-Official notice
was given here that no more prisoners
Will be liberated, conditionally or m
conditionally, for hunger striking and
that hunger strikers must be re
sponsible for the consequences of
their acts. 1t also was announced that
there would be no further ameiioration
Of the prison treatment given any pris-
oner convicted under the defense Of
the realm act.
This notice is regarded seriously in
Irish political circles, and il is antici~
pated that hunger strikes will become
numerous and that deaths in prisons
Will follow. The effect on Irish feel
ing, now awaiting the production Of
the Home Rule bill, would be grave,
it is said, and would revive the bitter
ness evoked by the death Of Thomas
Ashe, Sim Fein leader. who died in
May, 1916, as the result Of a hunger
strike and whose fate powerfully al
fected the Irish Convention.

New Note to Germany
Supreme Council Said to De
mand Berlin Say at Once
if 1t Will Sign Protocol

PARIS, Nov. 24.--The withdrawal Of
the American troops from Cobenz. in
occupied Germany. is not considered
N American peace conference circles
as necessary in consequence OF the
failure of the United States Senate to
rat'fy the German peace treaty. 1t is
contended that the United States is
still one of the Allied and associated
powers. and that the poStponement of
final action on the treaty does not
change its relation to either the asso-
ciated powers or TO Germany.
The council to-day decided to reply
20 the note submitted by the Germans
informing the council of the departure
.or Berlin of the lenipotentiaries sent
N connection with the protocol guar
snteeing the carrying out of the armi-
st,ce terms which Germany has been
sa1ormcd she will have to sign before
-hc peace treaty IS put into effect
The contents of the new Allied note
werc not given out to-day. 1t was an
uounccd chat the text would be made
pubic tomorrow.
The sudden departure OF the com
mission headed by Herr Won Simson
delegated by the German government
20 sign the protocol and exchange
publications. OF the document, is re-
sarded in American peace delegation
circles as having close connection with
nc news OF the adjournment of the
Jnited States Senate without ratify-
ine the treaty
The American opinion, however, does
rot agree with the majority Of French
criticisms that the Germans are using
he failure OF the Senate TO ratify the
treaty as pretcxt for avoiding full
fllment Of the peace terms. 1t is sug-
,os,cd that the Germans are nesitating
because they are confronted with q
situation in which the absence of
American members from the commits
-ions charged with supervision of ex-
ccuton of the treaty deprives them Of
what they are supposed to consider as
q counterpoise TO the points Of view
of their former European enemies.
The Supreme Councils note TO the
German delegation is understood TO be
a sort of summons to the Germans 10
make known whether they want TO sign
the protocol and make the treaty ef-
fective or not. 1t is not understood
70 be couched as an ultlmatum.

II the Socialists from the beginning

decrease their numbers largely when
the country was appealed to after the

Victor's Abdication Suggested
Another element in conservative
circles, however, has suggested even
such q radical measure as the abdica-
ton OF King Victor Emmanuel in favor
OF the Duke Of Aosta. who is espe-
cially popular with the army and
among the parties favorable to the
recent war. 1t is contended in oppo-
sitlon to this view. that such course
would not help the situation from the
conservative standpoint, as the per-
sonality of the sovereign is not at
issue. If change in the ruler were
to be an advantage, it ia argued in
