from Paris. In addressing the cheer

He continued:

"There are two questions. The first
is whether the government and the
Italian delegates have faithfully in

"Wc must show that we have taken
the worst into consideration. After
four years of unspcakable privations

and greater than ever-greater than
in May, 1915.
"The decision must be we'll consid-

that unless the race equality amend

1t is possible the latter question will

"Our American friends cannot expect

chancelleres which are the result.
When the day Of danger came we were
abandoned and crushed"
Colonel House, as usual conciliatory
and desiring peace quickly, advocates
the acceptance of the Japanese formula

very anxious, but he hopes to devise
