At ACUTE STAGE

Paris.-The Italian issue over the
where a decision one way or the other
cannot longer be deferred and a de-
cision either way is fraught with Sc
rious consequences.
Despite the Easter calm, which
brought vast crowds to the churches
and bou1evards, the council of four
continued it's sessions at the white
house." The Italian premier, VitOriO
Orlando and the Italian foreign min
lister Baron SonninO, were both pres
ent, and made it known that the open
ing of the Italian parliament has
necessitated their leaving Paris with
definite knowledge of what is going to
be done.
Baron Sonnino continued. to occupy
the extreme position, insisting upon
the integral fulfillment of the secret
treaty of London, giving to Italy the
entire Dalmation coast and islands,
and also claiming the city of Fiume
without INSTRUMENTATION or division
with the Jugo-Slavs.
Premier Orlando was rather more
conciliating. though a telegram which
he had received from the heads of the
Italian army declared that the entire
army was behind him in upholding
Italy's aspirations.
President Wilson's position was said
to be equally determined against any
recognition of the secret treaty of
London.
Reports of compromise on the
basis Of the Italians getting the Ital-
ian quarters Of Fiume and the Jugo-
Slavs getting their districts were not
confirmed, as it was said that this was
the plan put forward to the Italians
but not accepted. But early reports
indicated that the SESSION might be
prolonged through the day in an eff
fort to reach middle ground.

however, may remain somewhat
