AND
JUGO-SLAVS
AREFIGHTING.
PARIS HEARS

PARIS, Feb. 2S.-An uncOnfrmed
report that fighting had broken out
between the Italians and Jugo-Slavs
as a result of the dispute over the
disposition of Dalmatian territory,
was received here today. Efforts are
being made to pacify the Jugo-Slavs
and the Italians before the quarrel
spreads any further.
The Italians allege that the Ser
bian army has been modified and
that Serbia is preparing to back up
Jugo-Slavia's claims for territory on
the Adriatic Littoral.
The Serbians are minimizing the
expulsion of the Italian military mis-
sion from Laibach. They say it was
only a local matter and will have no
serious consequences.
Have Eleven Divisions.
The Serbians, in denying that there
has been any special mobilization OF
the army, assert that the Jugo-Slavs
Aave eleven divisions. The Italians
ArEe that this force has been col
ed merely to coerce the peace
conference into taking action favor
able to the Jugo-Slav demands in
Dalmatia.
1t is semi-officialIy admitted by
the Italians that the frontier has
been closed from Jarvis to Fiume.
The statement adds:
at is worth noting that since Feb
cnr1
Italian subjects was attacked at the
I.afbach station by soldiers in Serb
in uniforms. while IT was returning
20 Italy. The soldiers tore down and
burned Italian flags that had deco
rated the train
The dispute has been unofficially
discussed by the peace conference
during the week. The Italians urged
the conference to take such action
as will check the alleged aggression
OF the Serbians.
Root of Dispute.
I. The root of the dispute is IJalys
.demands for Fiume and the Dalmatian
coast, which Serbia contends would
deprive Jugo-Sloyakia of all useful
outlets to the Adriatic. The feeling
prevails here that the conference will
not tolerate any further infiammatOry
action and may anticipate the actual
formation Of a league of nations and
lake measures to calm the dispute.
4 One effective course suggested was
,1he holding up of supplies and f.
nances. II is believed that the eco
nomic weapon would prove most ef-
Elective.
The Serbians alleged that Italy has
about 1900, 900 men under arms. In
this same connection Italy has be-
gun to inquire why France has sta
TONED practically her entire fleet in
the Adriatic.
Allegation and counter allegation
is being made by the respective sides.
The Italians declare that many of the
soldiers under arms in Jugo-Slovakia
are Austrians, and that they are TAX
ing commands from German officers.

The Cold Pack
Method

Of canning has found great
favor with many progressive
housewives. IL has been
worked out by the u. S. De
partment Of Agriculture In a
way that can be adapted to all
products, not emily fruits, but
vegetables as well.
Cold pack canning does not
mean, as some people imagine
IL does, that no heat Is used.
What IL means Ia, that the
uneooked product Is packed
into the jar when partially
sealed. so that food, water and
air are all sterilized together.
