President Not to Permit
Treaty Agreements to
Weaken His Hobby.
IN NO ALLIANCE TO
PROTECT FRANCE
President Sends Message to Washing
ton to Rsassure His Friends-Bitter
Criticism of Wilson in Paris Reaches
His Ears-peadIock Over Italian
Territory Continues-Nearly Open
Rupture.

Washington, April 22.-Administra-
ton officials were advised in a con-
fidential cablegram from Paris today
that in the consideration Of problems
confronting the peace conference, such
as Italy's Adriatic claims. and the
question of an alliance to protect
France from future aggression, Presi-
dent Wilson would take no action
which might in the slightest degree
conflict with it's fundamental princi-
pies.
The message was a reply to a cable
gram Of inquiry regarding the presi-
dents attitude toward a secret alliance.
which, according to certain Paris
newspapers. contemplated a. special
defensive pact to be entered into by
France, Great Britain and the United
States.
Bitter criticism for America has
reached the president since the first
stories to the contrary were published
in Paris. In response to direct in
quries he allowed himself to be quoted
to the effect that mo agreement has
ever been considered which would in
any way weaken the league of ma
tions.''
Up 70 Congress, Allies Told.
The most definite information is that
President Wilson simply promised to
refer the entire proposal-whether the
United States should agree to aid
France in the event of an effort by
Germany to overwhelm her--to the
American Econgreel.
Mr.. Wilson, 1t is understood. pointed
out to Premier Clemenceau that con-
gross was the only American body
quested by the French prime minister.
| At any rate, whatever is done in the
future regarding this matter. no secret
agreement will be entered into. Every
thing will be planned openly. For the
days Of secret alliances is past.
DeadIocked Over Italy.
The outcome of the apparent dead
lock over Italys Adriatic claims Sis
awaited in official quarters here with
evident anxiety.
The situation as pictured in press
dispatches is regarded as serious. and
there was no. message from Paris yes
terday or today similar to those OF
last week. reporting gratifying prog
res at the peace table.
Vittorio Orlando, Ahe italian premier,
was absent this morning when deliber-
ations were resumed at the Paris
white House." President Wilson and
Premiers Lloyd George and Clemen-
ceau were present.
The president and the two premiers
went again into the Japanese questions
presented by Baron Maxine and Wis.,
count Chinda, which were taken up
when the deadlock over the Adriatic
question was reached yesterday.
Text Of Revised Covenant Received.
The complete text of the revised
covenant of the league Of nations was
received at the state department today
by cable from Paris. Acting Secretary
Polk has asked the president as e.
direction for publication of the docu-
ment.
No instructions have been received
but it has been assumed here that the
covenant will be made public upon de-
livery of the peace treaty to the Ger
mans and in accordance with the plan
announced at Paris for giving publicit!
