TO ASK REDUCTION OF
 SECOND CLASS POSTAL RATES

New York, April 25.-The American Newspaper Publishers Association at
 the closing session here today of it's annual convention. adopted a resolu-
 ton urging the incoming congress to repeal or suspend for two years the war time act of 1917 raising, the second class postal rates. The resolution de-
 clared that such rates, crude and un-
 scientific in character and burdenson1e alike to newspapers and their sub
 scribers,' affecting the carriage of
 newspapers, were ill suited to the
 needs of the country.
 The resolution also asked that hA-
 fore any new legislation changing
 rates in effect at the outbreak of the war be enacted an expert commission be appointed to inquire into the ope- rations of the post office in regard to the carrying of second class matter. This commission would ascertain the actual cost of such operations with a view to assessing equitable rates. The election of officers developed q contest for the presidency of the aS- sociation between Frank P. Glass Of the Birmingham. Ala, News, the ln-l cumbent, and Richard Hooker of the l Springfield Mass. Republican. Mir. Glass was reelected.

(By The Associated Press)

Although Vittorio Orlando. the Italian Premier, has withdrawn, tenn porarily at least, from the Peace Conference and returned to Italy to confer with the Italian parliament, he still is communication with conference circles in Paris.
 The French Permer, Georges Clem- enceau. was in receipt of message from the Italian statesman Friday morning, but no hint as to it's contents has been divulged. Signor Orlando dispatched the message while on his way to Rome. Baron Sonnino the Italian Foreign Minister, will leave the French capital for Rome Saturday. according to announcement.
 The departure of Premier Orlando is defined in conference circles not as a rupture. but as a suspension of l Italian collaboration in the actual | Peace Conference. In some quarters the expectation has been put forward | that Signor Orlando will return to Paris in time for the delivery of the peace terms to the German plenipo tentiaries at Versailles about May 1 or 2. It is expected that the Italian del- egates remaining in Paris will not collaborate on such Inter-Allied com-
 missions as the Economic Council and | the ArmiStice Commission and com | miSSonS of like character.
 1 The Amercan delegates, While ex- | pressing regret over the controversy with the Italians, seem confident that | a settlement will be arrived at on the questions in dispute after a confer | ence of Premier Orlando with the | Italian parliament. At Italian head l quarters in Paris, the prevailing sen, timent is distinctly more hopeful and
 the seemingly irreconcilable spirit at ] first manifested has visibly diminish
 ed. Wait and hope was the watch word expressed at the Italian head quarters Friday.
 President Wilson outwardiy has dis played no disposition to yield to the Italians on the question of Italy'S as pirations,t and the opinion voiced ir American circles that only through a change in the attitude of the Ital-
 ians can an agreement be reached
 The belief is general in Paris that the
 Italian incident will delay sonewha the final signing of the peace treaty From Italy comes word that in Romt
 and other cities there have been dem
 onstrations over the Italian situation
 in which the nlanifestants have
 cheered the United States but utter,
 ed expressions of animosity toward
 President Wilson.
 An AmericarhL officer arriving il
 from Plume brings a report that four
 teen Italian divisions have been nov : ed to this Adriatic seaport by tn Italians, and that virtually all the in
 labitants of the city with the eXcep , tion of Italians have departed.

 Dominic Nass, one of the negroes, is alleged to have placed his re--olver against the chest of Thomas Breen. of the Dorchester district and pulled the trigger. The weapon missed fire and Breen pushed it aside. The negro pulled again, and a bullet entered the leg of Breen's son Paul, 16 years old. A number of men closed in on Nass, while his companion, Manuel Smith. tho police claim, drew @ knife and slashed his way to Nass' side. The negroes were crowded into a doorway where they fought with an angry crowd of police, and men who had watching the parade.
 The police say that Smith plunged his knife into Francis Marshall. who died shortly aftcrward. Joseph Lime han and Joseph Henobar were severe ly cut about the shoulders and chest and were taken to hospital and oth- CTS were less seriously cut before po- lice clubbed Smith and Nass into sub mission. The policemen had some diff ficulty in getting the negroes away from the crowd.
 The negroes who said they were brothers and came from the Cape Verde islands. were charged with the murder of Marshall and lesser crimes Tho parade was not interrupted by the disturbance.
