Italy Pledges Ports
For Jugo-Slav Trade
Ne1D York Tribune
WGshtr gtor BureGu


WASHINGTON, April 10.-An argu-
ment being employed by the Jugo-
Slavs and Greeks at Paris against Italy
was said in a diplomatic quarter to-
day to be that while Italy is claiming
the right TO annex a part Of the Dal-
matian coast. which would separate
the ownership of the coast and the
hinterland, the Italian delegation op-
poses the assignment to Greece of
part Of the Asia Minor coast on the
ground that such disposition of the
coast would separate the ownership
from the Turks, who occupy the him
terland
The main opposition on the part of
the Jugo-Savs to Italian possession of
the territories Italy claims on the
eastern shore of the Adriatic is based
on the allegation that Italian owner
ship would cut off the hinterland from
the sea. The Italian answer is that
innumerable harbors are assigned in
the contemplated arrangement to
ugo-Slavia-more harbors, in fact
than all the Jugo-Slav products can
possibly need, and that, in addition,
Italian ownership would not bar the
use of the Italian ports to the Jugo-
Slavs, but, in fact, give the Jugo-Slavs
superior port facilities. more efficient
than the Jugo-Slavs themselves viii
be able TO develop.

these delicate blouses have as theil

The satin overblouse shown here
