Italian Parliament
Will Meet Today


The stage is rapidly being set for
the ilna. phase of the peace. nego-
tiations, Yesterdays plenary session
OF the peace conference stamped its
approval on the covenant OF the
league OF nations, while today Ger
many's plenipotentlaries are expected
to arrive at Versailles to join the
members OF the mission already there.
Some points in the peace treaty to
be presented to the Germans are as
yet unsettled, but il is said to be pos
siblc that the clauses involved will
shortly be ready for incorporation in
the document, so that the completed
treaty will be ready for the enemy
delegates by the weeks end.
Italian Parliament Meets Today.
Italy was not represented at the
pleuary session yesterday, but dis
patches from Rome indicate the prob
ability that her delegates will return
to Paris after a brief period. The
Italian parliament will meet today
and it is expected that Premier Or.
lando will at once appear and lay
before it the situation which arose a.

his public statemen, relative to Fiume
and Dalmatan coast.

unanimous vote on the resolution de

eastern coast Of the Adria,ic be rec

bic that Premier Orlando and his col
leagues will Immediately te-appear al

Advices from Rome state that the

THE LAST LONG MILE.

The most trying summer the peo- pie of the United States have ever experienced is drawing to close.
 All summers wear on the health and the patience of man. This year the heated season has been. particu larly hard to bear because we have had an unprecedented season of social and industrial unrest as well as a season of mental and physical discomfort.
 The period between mid-August and September in this section of the country is the most trying period we have to meet. We are irritable, unreasonable, grouchy; our patience is short, and if we are not careful of ourselves something will snap.
 In few more weeks we will have cooler weather and we can attack the manifold problems that confront us severally and singly with greater energy and with renewed strength and confidence.
 Until we get our "second wind' 1t is the duty of men in every station to strive to maintain their equili- brium; to practise patience and tol- eration and reason. It's bad time, just now, to "blow up." This goes for unions, for parties and govern ment officials as well as for indi- viduals.
 We are on the last long mile of a long, hard hike. It's always the hardest of them all, but by patience and perseverance it can be negotiat- ed as it has been done before.

Germany Launches
 New Foreign Office

Berlin, Aug. 18.-Reorganization of the foreign office will begin soon but it cannot be expected to move very swiftly since tke newcomers must take some time to become ac quainted with their new work, says the Deutche Allenge Meine Zeitung. Already one new minister, an under secretary, a political director and q personal reporter have undertaken their new duties at the foreign of flee.
 The systm will be altered so that one individual will control all rela- tions with one given country where as now political, commercial and new relations were handled separately.
 There are about fifty diplomatic posts to be filled besides countless le- gation and consular positions.
 The rank which diplomats abroad will take is still uncertain and it is considered probable that many coun- tries will appoint charges d affaires, an example which Germany must fol- low.
 The Alegmeine says that the gen eral commissary at Versailles, Di- rector Simons, after leaving the state service, will become business direc- tor of the imperial association of German industry.

ADVERTISING COMMENT
(BY J. w. ANDREW)

The value of advertlslng-ltS power to create sales-is being recognized by an increasing number of business men in every concelvably line of legl-- innate commercial activity, declared l P. s, Florea, executive manager ot the Associated Advertising clubs o1 the World, in discussing the 1orth- coming convention of the advertising association in New Orleans Sept. zl to 25. "We should ask no better indica- tion of this" said MT. Fiorea, than a check-up on the advertising columns of the newspapers and other publlca- lions of various cities. Old advertls- CTS are using more space, as rule' and new advertisers are appearing, because advertising pays them. They know better how to use advertising.
 "We know that there is a general increase in interest for never Tn the history of this association has there been such interest in an advertls- ing convention as has been manifested in the New Orleans meeting Tn Sep tember."
 A special train from New York has already been assured, MT. Florea an nounced, and there seems some doubt now, that one train will carry all the New Workers who want to attend. When surprise was expressed that men travelled so far to attend these advertising conventions, MT. Florea said: "Why, there will be men there who will travel 10000 mile to at tend. We have had cable messages for hotel reservations from men as far away as Australia. The Adver- Using Club of Shanghai has already made it's reservation. Men will come from every section of the civilized world, because these conventions are planned for the purpose of enabling business men to make better use of their advertising space-and there IS remarkable growth in interest in ad- vertising."
 It is truly gratifying, I thing, that business men-executives of note, are resorting more and more to the adver- Using columns of daily newspapers to make known their line of business and they are learning that large space is not an expense but an invest ment.

ENGLAND'S TROUBLES.

We think we are having trouble some times in the United States, what with strikes and high prices and political tampering with both But England is the possessor of moro trouble at the present time than all of our most radical agitators could plunge us.
 England not only has an internal situation worse than ours, but de- velopments of the past few weeks have given her more things to worry about than she has had since the war began.
 In addition to high prices, strikes and political troubles at home, Eng land has within the isles a problem of scarcity of supplies that is ex- sremely complicated, a constant de- mand for large forces of troops though they want to get out of the army and are needed in civilian pur- suits, and immense armament ex- pense that bids fair to remain at q high figure.
 As if this were not enough, Eng land is as badly embroiled in the Mexican situation almost as is the United States.
 She is threatened with serious diff faculties with France over her "pro- tectorate" in Persia.
 Native India is dissatisfied; her ad- ministration of Egyptian affairs is likely to cause her great deal of trouble not only with Egypt but with other nations, and last but not least, Ireland is still rebellious. Recent outbreaks at Londonderry are a proof of the constant presence of i'll feel ing. Also de Valera, president of the "Irish Republic" is running around all over the world stirring up more trouble which is likely to break out in bloodshed at any time.
 Truly the lions tail is being twist. ed as it has not been twisted in many years.

Indian Opera to Be Staged Among
 Giant RedWOOds

California Redwood Park, Cal, Aug. 18.-In the forest primeval, be- heath sempervirens towering three hundred feet and which were ancient forest monarchs even at the time of Noah's ark is recorded to have rest ed on Mount Ararat, 2,348 B. c. Cali fornians and visitors will gather here September 6 to witness "The Soul of Sequoia." It is an Indian opera, and it's premiere here will mark the first time in the history of open air drama that complete Indian opera has been produced in the natural red wood forest.
 Unique features in setting of grandeurs surround this effect of a California composer, Thomas Vincent Gator of San Jose, and California author, Don w. Richards, to produce history of the giant redwood trees in song and drama. Their efforts are supported by the Sempervirens club of California which is financing the production solely in the inter est of the California Redwood park, state park, with free camp sites, water, fireplaces, limbwood for Californians and visitors.
 In the heart of the great Big Basin, Santa Cruz county, a majestic amphitheater, is an inner amphi- theater in which the production will be staged.
 Wild deer will be participants in the drama A. M. Weaver, assistant state warden of the park, has trained these timid animals. For more than two years, Warden Weaver has each morning and evening called to the wild deer who have answered from miles around and sped to his offer ings of sugar, apples and barley.
 Mammoth pillars of living redwood five thousand years and more of age form the circling background to the natural stage upon which this drama is to be produced. This natural for est theater accommodated more than five thousand people.
