The Italian demands are very
broad and it is believed that some of
the Italian delegates themselves are
convinced that they cannot get all
they are asking for.
The announcement that President
Wilson probably would issue pub
lie statement some time during the
day created sensation in Paris. 1t
was first rumored that a break was
imminent. This was immediately de-
MED. however. from the Partisan
White House." ~
1t was later explained that the
president believed the time is ripe to
explain certain matters of detail con-
nected with the proposed peace
treaty. 1t was suggested In this con-
nection that President Wilson
thought 1t necessary to make a state
ment simultaneously with the state
ment that Premier Lloyd George is
planning to make in the house of
commons in London.
Inquiries early in the day failed to
reveal the definite tenor of the forth
coming statement. but it was re-
garded as certain that it would en-
tighten the American people on some
Of the matters transacted by the big
four.
Belief was expressed today that the
first treaty will be completed in time

sailles by April 25. /
