Every one knows how fearfulv strong
that dread is. But to be capable OF
being dull is in itself Il disease.
In Old countries such as mine. the

Italy Is Il Trustee
Under the New Plan

'In brief, every question associ
ated with this settlement wears
new aspcct-a new aspect given it by
the very victory for right for which
Italy has made the supreme sacri-
flee Of blood and treasure. Italy,
along with the four other great pow
ers, has become one Of the chief
trustees Of the new order which she
has played SO honorable part in
establishing.
"And on the and northeast her
natural frontiers are completely re-
stored along the whole sweep Of the
Alps from northwest to southeast to
the very end of the Istrian peninsu-
lar, including all the great water
sheds within which Trineste and
Pola lie, and all the fair regions
whose face nature has turned to-
wards the great penisular upon
which the historic life Of the Latin
people has been kord out through
centuries of famous story ever since
Rome was first set upon her seven
hills.

Must Give States
An Outlet TO Sea

IF those principles are TO be
adhered to, Fiume must serve as
the outlet of the commerce, not
of Italy, but Of the land to the
north and northeast Of that port
Hungary, Bohemia, Rumania
and tn states of the new Jugoslav
group. To assign Fiume to Italy
would be create the feeling that
We have deliberately put the port
upon which all those countries
chiefly depend for their access to
the Mediterranean in the hands
not domestic or identified with the
commercial and industrial life Of
the regions which, the port must
serve. 1t is for that reason, no
doubt, that Fiume was not in
cluded in the pact of London, but
there definitely assigned to the
Croatians.

Demand Prisoners Release
The German plcnipotentiarics the
Frankfort "Ieitung" says. have been in
structcd not to sign the treaty of peace
unless it provides for the immediate
and unconditional return of German
prisoners Of war
In connection with the question of
permitting the German delegates to
discuss the treaty it has been figured
out that if the treaty were read to
the Germans 1T would resuire at least
one minute Tor each of the 900
articles the document contains, taking
up two days of eight hours each 1t
IS computed also that if each article
we're discussed and an hour allowed
Tor every one the discussion would
occupy four months of continued ses-
slons Of eight hours a day.
These calculations are advanced as a
conclusive argument against permit
ting the German delegates to discuss
the document
Position TO BE Defined
Articles of the peace treaty explain
ing the position of Germany toward
nations which broke relations with her
during the war We're TO be drafted at
the meeting to-day of the council of
five. composed of the foreign min
listers of Great Britain, France, Italy,
the Secretary of States of the United
States and Baron Maxine OF the jap
ancse delegations
The council also expected to reach
an agreement on clauses regarding the
German colonies and traffic in war
material.
The Uruguayan peace delegates pro
posed oday that a clause be inserted
in the treaty by which Germany would
waive all rights over German ships
interned in neutral ports The pur-
pose of the clause is to remove the
possibility of German protests CON
cerning the ships in the future

LONDON, April 23.-All the Italian
papers publish the text Of the telegram
sent to the peace conference by Signor
Grossi, president Of the Fiume Ma
tional Council, in which he declares in
the name of the population of that city
that Italy cannot accept any other so
luton of the Fiume problem than one
which involves its union with Italy.
Baron Sonnino's organ, the "Giornale
dItalia,' says:
I'VE must hope that President vii
son. who is the only one among the
Allies who still objects to the Italian
claims, Will better understand the
spirit Of our aspirations and Of our
policy, which are far from being ma
terialistic and are on the contrary
moderate and consistent. Italy cannot
renounce Fiume, which spontaneously
asked to become Italian, nor the Ital-
ian cities of cara and Sebenico Nor
can the Italian government sign peace

The democratic radical Rome "Mcs-

"The energetic attitude of the Ital-
ian delegates at the peace conference
has been determined by the telegram
that 400 Deputies and sent them as
serting the Italian right to Fiume and
10 small part Of Dalmatia. We cannot
even suppose that the Italian repre-
scntatives can sign preliminary
treaty with Germany before the condr-
tons of peace for Italy have been de
fined fully
The liberal "Corriere della sera'
says:

German Treaty With
Russia Unc0nfrmed

Copyright, 1913. New York Tribune Inc,
y ONDON. April 23.--Fresh reports
~ Of secret treaty between Ger
many and Russia are appearing, but
they apparently have no greater
foundation in fact than the earlier
accounts Of an understanding ar
ranged by Karl Knutsky, the Inde-
pendent German Socialist. between
Berlin and Moscow.
The German government is un-
doubtedly anxious to come to an ar
rangement whereby the Bolshevik
will not attempt to spread their prop
aganda in Germany. 1t is questioned
here whether such an understanding
has been reached.
These reports are largely Of
propagandist character and are
spread by the enemy, who would like
to frighten the Entente into believ-
ing that Germany is in position to
decline to sign the treaty of peace.
