as a public holiday. In order to avoid
possible misunderstanding in connec-

point out that the day will not be a

canism which saved the world from
tyranny and must now save America
from selfishness and anarchy.

A|RPLANEs NOT TO Be
COMMERCIAL Carriers

London, Apr. 25.-British experts,
seeking to forecast the future poten-
tialities OF aircraft, seem to agree
that it is to the airship of rigid con-
struction, not to the airplane, that
one must look for the maximum OF
commercial usefulness.
The limitations Of airplanes de-
signed on present principles are def
initely known. Technically, 1t is an
accepted fact that an ainplane can
not be produced which is capable OF
transporting a commercially ade-
quate load for longer nonstop flight
than 1000 miles. For practical pur-
poses 500 to 500 miles are regarded
as the workable limits.
But the prospects of airships are
much less easy to diagnose. 1t is re-
cognized that rigid airships can fly
for distances of $500 miles carrying
a commercial load of approximately
15 tons and that they are enabled
to undertake long flights now be-
lieved to be impossible of attainment
by airplanes.

Paris, Apr. 25.-President Will
sons official statement delivered
here Wednesday regarding Italian
claims follows:
In view OF the capital importance
of the questions affected. and In or
der to throw all possible light on
what is involved In their settlement,
hope that the following statement
will contribute to the final formation
of opinion and to satisfactory solu-
ton.
when Italy entered the war she
entered upon the basis OF definite,
private understanding with Great
Britain and France, now known as
the pact OF London. Since that time
the whole face OF circumstances has
been altered.
MANY other powers, great and
small, have entered the struggle,
with no knowledge of that private
understanding. The Austro-Hungar-
ian empire, then the enemy Of Eu-
rope, and at whose expense the pact
of London was to be kept In the
event OF victory has gone to pieces
and no longer exists. Not only that
the several parts Of that empire, 1t Is
now agreed by Italy and all her asso-
ciates are to be erected into inde
pendent states and associated in q
league OF nations, not with those who
were recently our enemies. but with
Italy herself and the powers tha
stood with Italy In the great war fol

Wilson On The Fiume Question

on certain clearly defined principles
which should set up new order OF
right and justice. Upon those prin-
ciples peace with Germany has been
conceived not only but formulated.
Upon those principles 1t will be exc
cuted. We cannot ask the great pow
ers to propose and effect peace with
Austria and establish new basis Of
independence and rights in the states
which originally constituted the Aus
tro-Hungarian empire and in the
states of the Balkan group on the
principles of another kind. We must
apply the same principles to the set
tlement Of Europe in those quarters
that we have applied in the peace
with Germany. It was upon the ex-
plicit avowal OF those principles that
the initiative for peace was taken. 1t
Is upon them that the whole struc-
ture Of peace must rest.
"If those principles are to be ad-
hered to. Fiume must serve as the
outlet and inlet of the commerce, not
only OF Italy. but of the lands to the
north and northeast OF that port;
Hungary, Bohemia, Roumania and
the states of the new Jugo-Slavit
group.
"To assign Fiume to Italy woult
be to create the feeling that we hat
deliberately put the port upon which
these countries chiefly depend fol
their access to the Mediterranean II
the hands OF a power OF which 1t dit
not form an integral part and who's
sovereignty II set up there must in
evitably seem foreign, not domesti

, don but there definitely assigned +

WORLD PEACE NOT
BEFORE JULY lST
Dove With Olive Branch VIII Not
Appear On Horizon For Many
Weeks Yet

Paris, Apr. 25.--A clause has been
drafted for insertion in the peace
treaty fixing the date for the transi-
tion to state OF peace 63 days af
ter the signing OF the treaty. The
purpose OF this provision is to pre-
vent confusion among the more than
20 belligerent nations, which might
fix different dates in their various
ratifications. According TO the pres
ent plan each nation will ratify the
treaty according to its own laws but
all will unite in a common date which
will become universal day of peace
1t is being considered whether the
United States, as an associate power,
but not an ally, should sign a separ-
ate treaty of peace with Germany. IT
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.
The German government has Off
cially advised the allied and asso-
ciated governments that the German
plenipotentiaries would not leave
Berlin before April 2s, and that they
would reach Versailles May /, at the
earliest.
Seven newspapermen will accom-
pany the plenipotentiaries. the dis
patch added.
No final decision has been reach
ed as to according freedom Of move
ment to the Germans, nor regarding
possible access by allied newspaper
men to the press representatives o
the German delegation.

GLENDALE AND RIDDLE
THROWN OFF HIGHWAY

Riddle is to be thrown of the Pa
cific highway the same as Glendale
was, says the Glendale News. And
the probability is Myrtle Creek will
get it in the neck in about another
year. The sentiment here is just as
strongly manifested that Riddle is
getting rotten deal as it was when
Glendale got kicked off. We all feel
that the affair is unjust in every
sense of the word. Now the thing
for Riddle. Myrtle Creek, Glendale,
and all the small towns along the
Pacific highway to do is to unite and
make matters SO hot for the rotten
ring who are pulling OF such high
handed steam-roller deals that they
will find that the small communities
also have some rights over and above
the right to dig down and pay taxes.
