warm place to sleep in since l ar
rived in France. The ambulance
takes us back and forth to the hospi-

town. The meals also are great, and
we always have plenty to eat.
There is a wonderful land around
here, reminds me so much of the
country around DEBORAH, and not one
foot of it is wasted The farmers are
seeding now. Wheat is the principal
grain raised here. They have, gar

italians and Jugo-SIavS at

America Will Give Neither

BY FRED 5. FERGUSON.

BY United Press:
PARIS. March America stands
today as the chief factor for avert
ing the latest threatened European
war
The squabble between the Italians
and the Jugo-Slavs for control Of the
Adriatic has reached a stage border
ing on actual hostilities. Both coun-
tries. however. are dependent on
America economically. In case open
warfare results, America wilr imme-
diately cut off their supplies of food
and money, rendering them prac-
tically impotent. it was learned from
reliable sources.
Just how near Italy and Jugo-
Slavia are 10 an armed clash is evil
denced by the fact the Italians have
closed the entire frontier, as estab-
lished by the Austrian armistice, Civ
ing as their reason that they do
not wish TO have immediate resort
to military action in occupying the
territories consented 10 in the arm

say Train Was Attacked.
The Italians claim the Jugo-Slavs
have Il divisions modified near the
border. They say an Italian food
train has been attacked and that in
ono instance tho. lag on a train bear
ing repatriated Italians was torn
down and burned.
The trouble so far has centered
in Iiaihach. The Italians alleged The
Jugo-Slavs forced departure of the
Italian military mission which had
been stationed there in conformity
with the armistice for the purpose
of revictualing Jugo-Slavia and
CzechO- SlOvakia. The JugO-Slavs ex-
plain they based their action on the
ground that they have been rec
ognized by the allies. as a result "
which Laibach can no longer be
considered a part Of the former en-
pire of Austria Hungary The Ital
ians deny that such recognition has
vet been granted
The Jugo-Slav deny the charge
that they have ordered a general
mobiliza ton and make the counter
charge that the Italians have still
under arms an army of more than
100000.
No Definite Action Yet.
The peace delegates are under

II is considered probable that when
the general conference convenes

it will be necessary to lay down def

ment will he permitted
Meanwhile the allies are holding

WASHINGTON, March Fierce
turmoil ragged today on Capitol Hill,
where the 65th congress is expiring.
\ mass of legislation choked the
legislative channels while a partisan
feud was on between republican
senators and Pres't Wilson.
The session ends at noon Tues
day and in the interim the follow
ing vial measures are in doubt:
Victory loan bill, army. navy, In
dian, agricultural, sundry civil and
railsoad appropriation bills.
Some Will Not Pass.
Democratic leaders conceded today
that some of these will not pass. The
big question with them was: VIII
the Victory loan bill be blocked.
This loan provides $1,000. 900, 600
through notes and certificates, for
carrying on the government until the
new taxes come in.
Some republicans heartily favored
flibustering against the bill while
others were afraid that if they de-

feated it, Pres't Wilson would tell
the country that his political oppo-
nents, for political purposes, saw mt
20 stop the wheels of the govern
ment. The effect of such a state
ment, some republicans felt, would
be disastrous.
Sen. Simmons, finance committee
chairman, announced he will do all
he can to pass the loan bill tonight
Sen. Lewis, administration whip,
said, if necessary, the senate would
De kept in continuous session.
If the fight on the loan bill proves
as long drawn out as now appears
probable, the army and navy bills
to which the republicans are op-
posed. may not be called up.
Administration democrats agreed
TO forego speeches on the league of
nations so that nothing might ham,
per the progress of the loan bill.
Dem ocrats hostile TO the president
however, planned to speak on the
league.
