Of those who generally take the lead

BRUSSELS, June % (By The Asso-

granting a special audience at Malines
to Frederick L. Collins, an American
publisher, authorized the publication
Of the following statement apropos of
President Wilson's visit to Belgium:
"America will be rendering an in

promises of practical assistance in

and credit. In the little city of Ma

whom are involuntarily idle because
they have no material or machinery.
"Since the armisticc was signed re-
construction in Belgium has been

What Belgium needs most are the
three essentials mentioned by Presi-
dent Wilson, namely raw materials. ma
chinery and financial cooperation.
Even under present conditions | am

China's Treatment
Is Declared Blot
Upon Civilization
DIR. Gilbert Reid, Who Lived
in Orient for 81 Years,
, Puts Blame for Ignoring g
Justice ON ''Big Three

The handling of the Chino-Ja Japanese
Paris was characterized as a blot on
Western civilization by DR.. Gilbert
Reid, who addressed the Young Mems
Christian Association yesterday on the
Wrongs of China" He placed the
blame primarily upon President Will
son and Premiers Lloyd George and
Clemcnceau, and declared that if he
were "a Chinese delegate in Paris he
would not sign the treaty. He said:
"The way China's reasonable re-
quests have been turned down by the
big threc-Wison, Lloyd George and
Clemenceau-is not only disappont-
mcnt to the 400,000000 Chinese, but it
is blow to the qualities of justice,
love of freedom and belief in self-de-
termination SO loudly professed as the
special possession of the group arrayed
against the Central Powers"
Dr.. Reid has lived in China thirty
seven years. He was head of the In
ternational Institute, but in 1917 owing
to his efforts TO keep China neutral. was
deported to Manila through the influ-
ence. he says, of Great Britain and
France.
"What object to-" he continued ~"is
the ease with which men condemn the
action of Japan and yet would sign
treaty allowing Japan all she demands
This treaty business thus becomes a
glaring. exhibition of condoning wrong
Even the Chinese delegates are being
advised to etultify themselves by sign
ing away their own doom, in the vain
hope that the league Of nations, having
begun wrong, will be able to make
amends later on.
"The way China's rights have been
thrust aside is enough to condemn the
treaty. And the treaty, be it remem-
bered, is the first fruits of the COW
enant of the league Of nations. The
most important section relating to-
China does not even mention China.
Germany and Japan are the only coun-
tries mentioned. Japan gains what she
demands and China loses what she has
worked for and has regarded as her
legal and moral right What is worse,
the treaty confirms the principles of
right Of conquest.
Substituting Japanese interests for
German may indeed be blow to Ger
many, but it is also blow to China. If
1t be said that compromise was ncces-
sary or Japan, like Italy. would have
Withdrawn from the peace conference.
! reply that bad start in league of
nations forcbodcs evil for the future,
and, what is more, there ought to be no

justice. Americas high ideals are too
much at stake"

Italy Claims Smyrna
Under Forgotten, Treaty
Declares Pact With Entente
Signed in 1917 Has Been
Ignored in the Peace PnyIev

ROME, June 22.-The Tempo" points
out in its issue of this afternoon that
the details of the secret treaty Of
Saint Jean: de Maurienne of August,
1917, between Italy and the Entente
powers generally has been forgotten
because it was overshadowed by the
treaty of London, but that neverthe-
less it is most important in consider
Ing 1taly's position.
"The treaty of Saint Jean de Mauri-
enne,", says the paper, "gave Smyrna
to Italy, on condition that the agree
ment should be ratified by the Russian
government. A few months later
Great Britain denounced the treaty on
the preteXt that Rolshevik Russia
could never ratify it, but in reality
Great Britain meanwhile had given
SMYRNA to Greece in exchange for aid
promised by Premier Venizelos in the
operations in Macedonia Great Brit
ain proposed that Italy take Anatolia,
but Baron Sonnoni, then the Italian
Foreign Minister, refused to make a
new agreement"

is now considerable unrest, is strongly
with the Giolittians.
Since the last Italian election the
number of Socialists in the country has
increased tremendously, but it is un-
likely that any combination could be
formed to give the Socialists control
Of the government.
The Socialists are inclined toward
extreme radicalism, some of them
going so far as to favor the Moscow
Tnternatonale. The Giolittians are
still sympathetic toward Germany, and
argue that Ita1ys failure to obtain her
demands at Paris is the best of reasons
for renewing relations with her old
ally
With all parties the feeling is strong
that Italy's delegates failed lament
ably at Paris, and this opinion has
been strengthened by the fact that the
authorities have maintained so strict
a censorship that the public has been
poorly informed about the peace de-
liberations.
France, more than all the other
Allies, awaits the announcement of the
new government anxiously. AS soon
as the Cabinet is formed Italy doubt
less will send new delegates to Paris.

Formation of Cabinet by
ssCiolitti's Lieutenant'' Is
Denounced as a Menace
TO Nations Aspirations
D'Annunzio Joins Plea
Poet Writes Letter Urging
All Patriots to Unite
to ''Thwal.t Conspiracy

ROME, juno 22.--The newspapers
antagonistic to. former Premier Gio-
litti are conducting violent campaign
against the formation Of cabinet by
Signor Nitti, calling Signor Nitti
"Giolitti's lieutenant"
The "Giornale D'Italia" and the
"Epocha" are especially bitter in their
articles, contending that no man who
has had the least connivance with
neutralists or those ready to make re-
nunciations in Italy's aspirations
must be allowed to come into power at
tkis critical moment.
Gabrielle D'Annunzio, the poet, who
champions this movement, has arrived
in Rome and written a stirring ar
ticlc to the Italian nation in the "Po-
polo d'ltalia," urging all true patriots to
join in "thwarting the conspiracy"
The "Giornale d'Italia" says Signor
Nitti notified D'Annunzio that he de-
sired to see him on neutral ground"
wishing to explain his policy TO DAN
nunzio. The newspaper adds that
D'Annunzio replied, declining to meet
Nitti for q conversation on neutral
ground" tor which he felt no necessity.
He added, however, that he was al
ways ready to receive Signor Nitti if
he would come to his hotel The
"Giornalc D'ltalia" says that UP to
late Saturday evening Signor Nitti had
sent D'Annunzio no reply.
PARIS, June % (By The Associated
Press).-The Italian delegation to the
peace conference has been much dis
turbed by frequent suggestions in the
French newspapers that German in
f1uences are affecting Italian politics
and also by intimations that the Ital-
ians have supplied arms and ammuni-
ton to Bella Kun's soviet government
in Hungary.
Members of the Italian delegation
say the alleged ant-French feeling
against Italy is easily explained BY
the work of French propagandists, who
arc blamed by the Italians for the re-
cent unfriendliness of the Italians to
president Wilson and the United
States.
The delegation has been advised from
Rome of the designation by King Vic
tor Emmanuel Of Signor Nitti to form
new Cabinet. Up to the present,
however, the members of the delega-
tion are without official information
as to the actual selection Of any mem
bers OF the new government.
