Other Italian Leaders Emu
 late D'Annunzio, Reported
 Taking Forcible Possession of Adriatic Coast Towns.
PEACE CONFERENCE
 WISELY WORRIED

Paris, sept. 25, (HaVaS. 1.-The crisis through which Italy is passing is imputed to the g1 eat bowers by Gen. Giuseppe Perpino) Garibaldi in an interview printed in the Petit Parisien this morning. He reproaches them for not having given Italy all that was promised in the treaty of London and declares it to be the in tention of the Italian people to keep Plume "even at the price of another war;
 ''It depends on France and Eng land,,' he says, 'whose populations are with Italy in the Plume affair. Whatever should be President Will sons answer to Italy's proposals, we will say to him that this dispute is between Europeans and must be set tied between Europeans. We know the Am erican, French and British peoples are with us in this natter
 Peace Conference Worried.
 Apparently in emulation of Captain Gabrielle dfAnnunzio, whose dramatic seizure of Fume centered the atten- tion of the world OF the eastern Lit toral of the Adriatic, other Italian leaders are reported to be advancing on Spalato, Sebenico and Tra4t ira- portant towns along the coast which have been under the control of Jugo- Slav forces. Peace conference circles are plainly concerned over the situa- ton, which seems to have become quite grave.
 Belg tade advices declare Italian soldiers have overpoWered small Jugo-SIav force at Torguire and have entered the town. The place men toned probably is Trogier, the Croa- tian section of the city of Frau, about 15 miles northwest of Spalato. Fur ther south there appears also to be disorders, reports from Rome indi eating there is virtual reign of ter TOT at Ragusa, a Dalmatian town close to the frontiec of Montenegro.
 May Restore King Nicholas.
 In addition, there are rumors that the Italians plan to restore King Nicholas to the Montenegrin throne from which he was busted by action of the national assembly last April. This action of the national assembly has never been recognized by the royal Montenegrin government which has maintained it's headquarters near Paris for several months King Nicholas is the father of Queen He lena of Italy.
 So far as known definitely no an swer to proposals made by Italy rel ative to Plume has been received from President Wilson although it is intilnated in unofficial Italian cir cles that it has arrived. The Italians are disposed to reject any proposition looking to a compromise, the claim being made that the storm through out the country can be calmed only by giving Fiune to Italy. There are hints too that governmental crisis may develop as 8 result of the situ- at1on,
 Supplies Are Given Fiurne. Gen. Giuseppe (Peppino) Gari baldt, who arrived here yesterday. de- clared ''serous results would follow if Italians were not placed in 8 posi- ton to settle the Plume question ac- cording to the will of the people," He satd the city was not closely bloekad- ed and the Italian government was ] sending supplies into the city.

AMERICA MUST
ACT WISELY OR
FALL like ROME
All Great Fallen Nations Ar
rived at Point Where They
Seemed to Have All
They Strove for.

President Ernest NJ. Hopkins OF
Dartmouth college, preaching yes
terday morning at the First Uni
tartan church, declared that America
today is at point in history which
II unwisely met, may lead to the
greatest tragedy of nations the
world has ever SEEN"
Greece, Rome, Egypt, all the fall
en- nations, arrived at this point
where all for which they had strug-
gled seemed about to be grasped,
and then, through self-sufficiency
and self-indulgence they fell" said
Dir Hopkins.
We have fought to make the
world safe for democracy. The
task before us now is to make de-
mocracy safe for the world. That
shall be accomplished through I'M
selfish cooperation and generous
consideration for the other fellow
and the other nation. 1t is not the
spirit which says, I'm just as good
as you are, but it says, You're
just as good as / am
1t Can Be Done.
Don't be misled by the people
who today are crying that the
league of nations can't be formed.
They made the same cry when the
Is original colonies were bound to-
gether into a union. Throughout
history it has been the same. And.
strange though it seems, the OBJ
vious has always, been held up as
the impossible. When a certain fine
action is mapped there is a mental
process within us which says, II
this were practicable it would have
been done before; therefore, there
must be some obstacle insurmount-
able
"But, put to the test, it is found
that these things can be done and
that the world is better after they
are done.
The league of nations is the OBJ
vious thing Cooperation is the key
note of all progress. Recently |
visited the little Canadian town OF
Ambleton, 40 miles from a railroad,
where practically everything needed
is raised or made without the out
side world. Life is primitive and.
at times. precarious. because these
people are not leagued with the out
side world.
Each Man a Specialist.
Each man in the civilized world
today is a specialist in something
and by his specialization he learns
to produce the maximum amount in
a given time. By reason of his high
production and through co-opera-
tin with all the other specialists who
make things that he needs he is
enabled to enjoy these things which
ihe non cooperative people in the
little Canadian town cannot have.
Two are better than one" said
the cynical philosopher who wrote
the book Of Ecclesiates, for if one
fall the other shall raise him up.
And here is the philosophy which
must guide US i'll making democracy
safe for the world. We must be-on
the lookout for what we can do for
others. We have liberty in this
country. That is usually conceived
to be liberty from restrictions. But
we should hold in mind that it is
also a liberty for unselfsh actions.
If we move forward with this vision
America and the world will enter
upon an era such as they have only
dreamed of in the past"
