TELLS CANADA OF
PLANS FOR USING
FAR NORTH LANDS

Ottawa, May Ga plan for con-
verting the Arctic and sub-Arctic
regions of Canada into a great wool.
milk and meat producing area was
presented to the Canadian senate
and house of commons today by
Vilhjalmur Stefansson, Norwegian
explorer of the Canadian arctic.
Mr.. Stefansson's project involves
large herds of reindeer and domes-
ticating and transferring great herds
of musk-ox. Both animals would
furnish milk and meat supplies and
the musk-ox would afford also a
wool supply.
The Canadian north. Mr.. Stef-
ansson said, would be utilized to
solve the present problems of food
shortage, and would help in fur
nishing farm help. He estimated
there were from one million TO two
million square miles of land avail
able for grazing in climate too
severe for cattle but where reindeer
and musk-ox could exist the year
round.

(By Associated Press.)
Nothing official has been made
public as to the agreement under

that it is proposed to make Fiumo

German newspapers are printing
reports from Versailles to the effect
that the German representatives
nave served notice on the allies that

Germans leaving for Berlin. An
other report emanating from Berlin
states that German Ministers
Landsberg and Giesberg, members
of sthe enemy delegation. have left

There has been no intimatiun
from Paris that the Germans were

Paris, May 6.-The newspapers
generally express satisfaction with
the decision of the Italian dele
gates to be present Wednesday
when the peace treaty is delivered
to the Germans They look upon
the action of the Italians as a sign
of solidarity between the allies, and
point out that the return of the
italians indicates that Italy will
continue at the side of the allies

to, cause dissensiOn among the five
great powers. The belief is held
that Italy will help in finding ways
and means for a satisfactory solu-

Furthermore members of the
Italian delegation now in Paris
stated today that dispatches in Ger
man newspapers suggesting that
Italy had broken with the entente,
made it imperative for the Italians
to demonstrate that they are still
loyal to the allies. In this con-
nection, it was noted. Marquis In
