Paris, Sept. 23.-(By The Associated
Press s).-Ineasiness is growing in peace
conference circles in regard to the situa-
ton in Fiume. 1t is feared that the
movement started BY Gabrielle Dan
nunzio may spread to other parts Of
the Dalmatian coast and result in the
occupation of Zara. Cattaro and other
towns, with large Italian populations
located in districts where the majority
of inhabitants are Jugo Savs.
The JugoSlay delegation in Paris is
extremely apprehensive and the situa-
tion generally is regarded as one which
might conceiyably develop into a serious
war.
The general disposition at first in
several of the entente delegations here
was to regard D'Anunzio's movement
as a. beautiful romance. This disposition
apparently is disappearing as the reali-
cation is becoming general that Greece,
or even slermany, might adopt similar
tactics to gain control Of disputed ter
ritory.
No reply has been received from
President Wilson to the proposed com
j promise of the differences regarding
Fiume. The compromise plan in final
form did not leave Paris until last Wed
nesday and delays ID cable transmission
as well as the process Of DECIDING would
consume several days.

ELEMENT Of
DISLOY TY
IN OPPOSITION
Chief League Opponents
Of Agitator Class Says
Wilson.

Ogden, Sept. 23.-Homewa bound
after nearly three weeks speech
making President Wilson told crowd
here today that he had found SO per cent
Of the people in favor Of the league Of
nations. The chief opposition he added
came from a very disQuieting element
which included the Influences which tend
ed toward disioyalty during the war
The declaration was made from the
rear platform of the presidents private
car, where crowd gathered and clam
ored for a speech after the presidential
party had returned from brief automo-
bile ride through the city Only a short
stop was made here before Mr. Wilson
went on to Salt Lake for night meeting
at the Mormon Tabernacle.
He said in part:
Il cannot make a real speech under
the circumstances for you will under
stand that the thing we have most at
heart needs a lot Of sea room To turn
in and | would despair Of making any
adverse remarks about so great a matter
as the treaty Of peace or the league of
nations:> but | do find this, my fellow
countrymen, that the thing is very near
the heart of the people There are
some men in public life who do not seem
to be in touch with the heart Of the peo.
pie but those who are know how that
heart throbs deep and strong for this
great enterprise Of humanity, for it is
nothing else than that.
We must set our purposes in a very
definite way to assist the judgment of
public men. | do not mean in any way
to coerce the ludment Of public men,
but to enlighten and assist that iudg
ment, for | am convinced after crossing
the continent. that there is no sort Of
doubt that so per cent of the people
of the United States are for the league
of nations. and that the chief opposi-
tion comes from the very disquieting
element that we had TO deal with be-
fore and during the war.
'All the elements that tended toward
disloyaty are against the league and
for very good reason. if this league is
not adopted, we will serve Germany 8
purpose, because we will be disassociated
from the nations, and | am afraid per-
disassociated from the nations
with whom we co-operated in defeating
GERMANY"
