! Drafts of proposed changes in the
reservations framed by the senate
majority at the last session were
talked over by Senator Lodge, Mas

and Senator Lenroot Wisconsin, a
leader Of the mild reservation group

that the negotiations still were in
"a nebulous state and that many sug-

War Between Italy and

Chicago, Dec. 23.-Walter Pfedo-

lief commission just returned from
six months spent in Jugo-Slavia, de-
clared that he had a "huge amount
of documentary evidence of atroci-
ties committed by the Italians
against the. Jugo-Slavs." War be-
tween Jugo-Slavia and Italy was
certain, he said, "if Italy continues
her oppressive tactics"
According to Predovich, Jugo-Slav
women frequently were, victims of
Italian soldiers, but the latter were
not punished. Citizens refusing to
send their children to schools es-
tablished by the Italians where the
Italian language was taught were
thrown into prisons. 4
Predovich declared the conduct of
Italians toward the Jugo-Slavs was
known at Washington. He asserted
D'Annunzio's seeming irresponsible
ity in activities in Fiume and else
where 'is just cloak behind which
Italy is working to obtain that
which the peace conference refused

in Europe, CIemenceau Tells
French Chamber.
VOTE OF CONFIDENCE
is GIVEN TO PREMIER

Guarantees Offered France
by Great Britain and VIII
son Will Not Be Questioned

Paris, Dec. 23.-The chamber of
deputies voted confidence in the
government, 458 to II. The vote,
which carried approval Of Premier
Clemenceah's program, was taken
after the chamber had listened to
his declaration on the determine
ton of the allies to crush bolshev-
ism, his confidence in the Anglo
Franco-American pacts, his predic-
ton of solution of the Fiume
problem. and his understanding
with Premier Lloyd George of
Great Britain.
M. Clemenceau told the chamber
that President Wilson and Great
Britain had offered military pacts.
Certain points in the peace treaty
had been questioned but there were
no serious objections to the military
arrangement.
To Solve Fiume Situation.
The premier added that the latest
indications were that the Fiume sit
uation would be solved, "and then
only can we breathe freely"
M. Clemenceau appealed to the
chamber to work hard and talk lit
tie. He said the cabinet at the end
of the remaining weeks of its tenure
of Office would give its resignation
to the president and added:
1T will not be an exit by one door
to enter by another"
Asked BY Marcel Cashin, socialist,
if he ought not to give an unquiet
country explanations of the treaty
and the Anglo-American military
pacts, M. Clemenceau said:
II did not ask for these military
guarantees. They were offered by
England and President Wilson. /
Go not believe they will be ques-
toned. Although certain points of
the treaty have been discussed there
is no serious objection to the guar
antees."
Questioned, on Russia.
During the discussion on the Lon
don conferences Ex-Premier Bar
thou questioned M. Clemencau on
Russia, and the premier said Russia
had been discussed previously, but
added:
81 will te1f you the two principal
decisions we have taken. Not only
will we not make peace, but we
won't compromise with the govern
ment of the soviets. We have de-
ciced that we will be the allies of all
peoples attacked by the bolshevists."
Regarding the situation in the
Adriatic, the premier said:
"The Fiume question has, been
agonizing. Italy promised Fiime to
the Jugo-Slavs, but went back on her
promise. France, England and the
United States have sought a solu-
ton and the latest indications are
that it will finally be reached. Only
when this is solved can we COM
