The BRITISH
C0MP'CT WITH
IS The
CONFERENCES
BIG PROBLEM.
By Amos Pinchot
written for the United Press)

written for the United Press)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The
controversy between Italy and the
Jugo-Slavs growing out of the secret
treaties of the Allies, in which the
United States had no part, is one OF
the most serious menaces to harmo-
nious agreement on a peace settle
ment.
There seems to be no way for
President Wilson to clear the peace
table of this embarrassing compli-
cation without first forcing destruc-
ton of the secret treaties. This can
be done only if the peoples of the
United States and the Allied coun-
tries understand his position and are
willing to back him in this difficult,
but seemingly necessary. understand
ing.
The trouble between the Italians
and their new eastern neighbors
arises from the London Pact of 1915.
Article w says that Italy shall have
Istdia, and Article V gives her Dal-
malta and adjacent islands. The
Jugo-Slavs contend that italy has
neither political nor chronological
claims to these territories, and a
crisis of extreme delicacy has been
precipitated that already has war
ranted some measures of interven-
ton by the other Allies. According
to the census of 1910 the population
of Dalmatia was 1866. Of these.
it is estimated that 900 are Ital-
ians. The Slav inhabitants number
approximately 100000 and only
about $4,000 of these speak Italian.
The principal reason why Italy
wants Dalmatia is found in the for
nation of the littoral. On the Ital-
ian side, the Adriatic is shallow and
sandy; it is nice place for chill
oren TO Dathe, but is no place for
shipping. The Dalmatia coast, on
the other hand, is broken by bays and
CULTS, and fringed with islands; and
almost every mile has commodious
harbor for merchant vessels or
well-shetered base for warshilps.
France and Great Britain are
obliged to back up Italy's Dalmatian
claims, in spite of the new Jugo-Slav
nation, which presumably, until re-
Gently, has also been kept in igno-
rance of the secret treaties. They
pledged themselves to do so in the
treaty of 1915, and if they don't
Italy can seek revenge by opposing
