Altho Premier Orlando Of Italy,
announced at Paris last night that
the Italian delegation would with
draw from the peace conference
and leave Paris today. it is under
stood that France and Great Brit
ian will make another effort to
prevent an open break at the peace
table.
Hope Is expressed in dispatches
that some way may still be found
to adjust the situation 20 that
Italy win not quit the conference.
From statements made by Pre-
mier Orlando last night, 1t seems
that he considers the publication
OF President Wilson's statement
relative to Ffume as premature.
Ir talk with Italian correspon-
dents he said that the presidents
declaration that Italy should not
have Fiume came at a moment
when the Italian delegation was
making a supreme effort to arrive
at q settlement" In a Letter dis
patched later to Premier Lloyd
George and Premier Clenlenceau
the Italians declared 1t impossible

Paris. April 24.-A clause has been
treaty fixing the date for the trans
version to state Of peace sixty days
after the signing of the treaty. If the
treaty is signed about May Is peace
thus will become effective thruout the
world on July Is.
The purpose of this provision is to
prevent confusion among the more
than twenty belligerent nations, which
might fix different dates in their vari-
GUS ratifications. According to the
present plan each nation will ratify the
treaty according to it's own laws but
all will unite in a common date which
will become a universal day of peace.
This follows the precedent estab-
lished at the conclusions Of previous
wars. but it is increasingly necessary
in the present case, owing to the large
number of nations signing the treaty.
It is being considered whether the
United States. as an associated power,
but not an ally, should sign a separate
treaty Of peace with Germany. 1t
would be the same treaty as that
signed by the allies and would be
signed at the same time as part of the
same ceremony. but the effect Of the
separate treaty would be to preserve
the position of the United States as an
associated instead Of an allied power
and would be a direct engagement be-
tween the United States and Germany
instead Of between the United States
and large number of other allied
powers.

The arrival OF the German peace
delegation at Versailles has again
been delayed, it being announced
officially that the Germans will not
be on the scene Of the peace con-
ference until May l. IT is declared
that this additional delay is not
unwelcome to the allied and asso-
ciated governments, as there are
many minor points which still
must be cleared up before the
final draft Of the treaty is ready
for presentation.
The Italian crisis will also tend
to retard the framing of the con-
vention which the Germans will be
asked to sign.
A further serious setback for the
Russian bolsheviki has occurred in
the Ukraine, where kiev, the
capital, has been wrested from them
by Ukrainian revolutionists friend
ly to General Petlura, the Ukra!n-
ian anti-bolshevik leader.
The situation in Hungary is still
shrouded in uncertainty. Reports
as to conditions there are contra
dictory, one saying that the Rou-
maniar advance from the east is
progressing and that Czech forces
are quite near Budapest. while an
other states that the Roumanians
have been checked and that the
