iBy The Associated Press).

Conflicting claims to the city of Plume and the DaImatian coast which have been laid be- fore the Peace Conference in Paris by Italian and Jugo-SIa- via will probably be brought to a decision soon, if efforts to be eXerted by the Italian delega- ton bear fruit.
 This controversy, one of the most troublesome to be considered by the conference, has aroused public senti- ment in Italy and when the Italian parliament meets on April 4, Pre- mier Orlando probably will be asked for report on the subject. Hence he is said especially to desire a set clement before that date.
 Conversations on the Adriatic problem have been going on in Paris for some time, but it is indicated that a settlement has not yet been reach ed.
 According to present plans, the AL lied terms of peace may not be laid before the Germans before Saturday of next week and it may not be until the following Monday that the enemy delegates learn the details of the treaty they will be asked to sign. This will delay proceedings to some extent,

Sidewalk Vendors Largely Imposters, Says Supt.
 Suckley.

On account of the many complaints received by the Police Department against soldier peddleTs, Superintend- cnt Suckley stated this morning that a systematic effort will be made to rid the city of flake" soldiers and imposters. MT. Suck1ey stated: The sympathy racket is being overworlled by eX-soldiers who claim they can not find employment The public is be- coming tired of pandering to these men and the soldiers themselves should find useful employment or they will be classed as buns. Most of these soldier peddlers are imposters. An honOrably discharged soldier should be wearing a red chevron In many cases we find men in uniform who have never been in the army or have been discharged for almost d year. Any man found in uniform who has not been discharged within the past three months will be arrest ed and put in jail.
 The Police Department will do everything possible to help and assist the deserving returned soldier but in justice 10 the real soldiers our city must be rid of the imposters

In the preface to this resolution, the members call attention to their qualifications as loyal members of the party, and then to those of MT. King as national committeeman, declaring that he should endeavor to bring to gether the various factions, rather than to adopt an attitude and make attacks of a kind which have been largely responsible for the falling off in ConnecticuCs Republican majority from 45,OOO to 7,O00-
 The resolution adopted reads: "Be it resolved, that as we keenly feel the unjust, insulting, personal at tacks upon our party leaders, and especially resent the attitude of the national committeeman, and mindful that such an action is not conducive to keeping peace and harmony in the Republican party and is detrimental to the welfare of united Republican, ism in this state; that since John King by his own admission is not the one who will exert himself 10 bring about peace and harmony in the Re publican ranks, that he resign in favor of some one who can, in the best interests of the party"
