SAYS THE ALBANIAN
HAS AN AMAZING
CONFIDENCE IN us.
Associated Press Writer Re.
ports Continued Pleas for
Assumption of Mandate.

TIRANA, Albania, October 10 (Cor-
respondence of the Associated Press).-
Continued appeals are being made by
the Albanians for the United States to
assume a mandate for Albania. The
Albanian has an amazing confidence in
America. Scarcely a week goes by in
which some local Albanian society or
group of patriots does not present Pc
tition, addressed to the Americans, ap-
pealing to President Wilson to inter-
ceda on behalf of their country.
When the Associated Press corre-
spondent was passing through a small
town south of here on horseback he
was stopped by the mayor and local Off
cials, who presented to him an appeal
seeking the protection of the United
States because the Greeks were report
ed to have taken possession Of the city
of Koritza, in southern Albania.

Dislike Italian Protectorate.

The italian protectorate is In opera
ton, but most Albanians profess dis
Itinct dislike for the Italians. saying
their desire is. merely to exploit the
country and to retain a strategic foot
hold in the Balkins. Some of them say
they Jared better and the country pro-
gressed more under the Austrians.
American observers say the Italians
have brought great material and moral
good to the country and have stabil-
ICED things in an effectual way.
The country is extremely primitive
and there are continual internal disor-
ders. Railroads or telegraphs do not
veniences of life are wanting, sanitation
Is almost unknown. schools and churches
are few in number, and altogether the
country seems extremely backward
Except for the southern part, which Is
fairly fertile. it is a barren waste Of
rocks and woodless hills and noun

Crops Are insufficient.


| Albania produces scarcely enough
| crops to support it's Inhabitants. The
population Is upward of 100000, di-
| vided about evenly between Christians
and Mohammedans. Only about 5 per
cent Of this number are able to read or
write.
The women do all the work. They are
veritable beasts of burden. Indeed, they
| compete with the ponies and donkeys
as pack carriers, but are not considered
| by the men as valuable because they
cannot bear up under such heavy loads
| for wives the price paid often Is not as
| high as that given for good horse
This severe life among the women
shows itself In premature old age. and
| in many forms of serious physical dis
ability. Fifteen per cent Of the mothers

negrin invaders. go
Feud Clashes Frequent. Z
| The hostility to the Serb and Monte
negrin never ceases. Feuds. pistol dueis
| The Albanian, once he believes himself or
relatives wronged, never rests until
complete and fierce vengeance is Sc
| cured. The American Red Cross hospi-
tails throughout the country are con-
stantly called upon to treat the victims
| of these feudS and vendettas.
The Italians have a force of about
25, 900 troops in Albania. The major
part of these are in the vicinity of Va
| Iona. The rest are used in police and
garrison duty in different parts Of the
| country. Their presence has tended to
| tranquillize the country and keep down
1.-the troublesome elements among the
Population. There are recurring spo-
radio clashes, however. between the AL
lbanians. Serbs and Montenegrins, in
which frequently the Italians are forced
to take part.
