President Approves

WASHINGTON, April 2o.-Presi- dent Wilson has approved Postmas- ter General Burleson's recommends ton that the telegraph and telephone systems be returned to their owners upon the enactment of legislation deemed necessary and that the Ameri- can cable lines be restored to their owners forthwith.
 The presidents approval was an nounced in a cablegram today to ,he White House.
 As a result of announcement yes terday by Postmaster General Burle- son that he had recommended to President Wilson that telegraph and telephone systems be restored to pri- vate ownership and that control of the American cable lines be relin- quished, members of congress were today informally discussing legisla- ton which will be necessary before the land system can be turned back to their former owners. No legisla- ton will be required in the case of cable lines, 1t was stated, as the af- fairs of the companies are in such shape that they can take care of them selves.

SPIRIT OF ITALY so hlGH-
 ROME PEARS INTERNAL MORE
 THAN EXTERNAL PRESSURES
NOT ID BE PRESENT AT
 THE SIGNING
By Associated Press.

PARIS, April 29. - Ambassador Page telegraphed from Rome he had gathered from Premier Orlando in conference Monday that the premier did not intend to return to Paris for the signing of the peace treaty.
 The premier expressed regret that the time was so short before the ar rival of the Germans.
 The Italian premier, Page added, felt that this action either way would have serious consequences but 1t was preferable to have trouble from without Italy rather than from with in Italy, because the present state of public feeling in Italy would not jus tify the signing of the treaty which did not include Italy's aspirations.
 Page said he has taken steps to have the Italian authorities suppress the manifestations directed against President Wilson.
 As a result, one of the principal demonstrations in Rome was given up.
 Should Orlando not return for sign ing the treaty 1t would give the situa ton a more serious aspect than the departure of the Italian delegations, as the allies would be required to take final action without the participa- ton of Italy.
 The indications are that the allies will proceed with the signing if Italy decides to withhold participation. The final draft of the treaty has been virtually completed The latest count shows total of 8O,0QO words in the treaty.
 An offical summary of 10000 words las been made. The intention is to hold it for publication throughout the world about the same time the treaty is delivered to the Germans. Various governments are cabling this summary everywhere for simultane- ous release when authorization is given by the conference.

He was at first very enthusiastic as
TO the possibilities of this artificial
sweetstuff, which has a sweetening
power about 500 times that of sugar.
Its manufacture was organized IN q
large scale, and soon enormous guam
titles were being used in making i~s-
cream and the soda water sirups TO
which Americans are addicted.
Doctor Remsen was making an In

Doctor Remsen thereupon submitted
himself to rigorous tests of the action
of saccharin on the digestive organs
and on the heart. As a result he asked
