There is no doubt that the radicals

resentment that a military force pre-
vents Them from joining forces with
the bolsheviks in Russia, but tnere is
also ground for their belief that mill

growing stronger. Whether they would
use their organization against a demo-

Paris, April lS.-With every prepa-
ration being made for reception Of the
German peace delegates April 25 the
Italians and Japanese continued today
to present possible barriers TO complete
agreement on the terms of the treaty.
No official information could be OBJ
tanned regarding the present status of
the claims Of those two countries, but
it was generally understood the Ital-
ians were still holding out for ratifi.

gram, while the Japanese were prepar.

covenant at the plenary session next
week. The Italians were said to be
standing pat on their threat to with
draw from the conference unless their
claims were granted. The Japanese,
while still apparently without specific
from Toxic, were reported
to be ready to announce their refusal
to accept the covenant if their amend
ment were to be again turned down.
