ITALISANS PROTEST ON
ADRIATIC QUESTION

ROME, March 3.-Italan newspa-
pers protest because of publication of
the correspondence between President
Wilson and the allied premiers on the
Adriatic by the press of France, Eng
land and America, while journals here
were not permitted to print the news.
1t is stated officially that the al
lies had agreed to publish the text
of the correspondence simultaneously
but owing to the previous publication
of the notes by the American press,
the British government, in accord
with the allies, deemed it necessary
to publish the documents at once,
without waiting for the special cour-
ier to arrive in Rome with the docu-
ments.
Telegraphing the text of the notes
to Rome was considered by Italian
representatives in Rome, says the
Messaggera, but this idea was aban-
doned because all French telegraph
lines had been reQuisitioned by the
government.
