LITTLE HOPE FOR FluME PACT
President Wilson Believed Against
Adriatic Agreement.

Washington.-There is no probabil-
ity that President Wilson will indorse
the memorandum for the settlement Of
the Adriatic problem said to have been
agreed upon by the British, French and
Italian premiers and recently COM
municated to Washington.
The proposition is declared by per
sons in touch with the situation to be
distinctly unjust and inequitable. 1t
gives Italy all of Istria, which is de
clared to be almost solidly Jugo-Slav.
brings an Italian highway up to the
city Of Fiume and separates Fiume
from the Jugo1Slav suburb, which is
as much a part of the city as if ii
were not separated by a creek across
which an agile man could jump. In
cluding this suburb, Fiume is distinct
ly JugolSlav and with the surrounding
hinterland overwhelmingly so.
Italy already has under the treaty
approximately 100000 Jugo-Slavs and
100000 Austrians. Many persons here
feel Italy will have sufficient difficulty
holding down these clashing elements
without adding to the number of Jugo-
Slavs under the Italian flag.

HOLLAND REFUSES
TOG|VE UP WARLORD
The Dutch Government Sends
Note TO Paris
MANY LEGAL OBSTACLES
The Hague Government Holds II Is
Not Bound BY Treaty And That
Its Honor Does Not Permit
Betrayal OF Refugee.

London.-Holland's refusal to per
nit extradition Of the German ex-
Kaiser will not end the efforts OF the
Allies to bring the deposed war lord
to trial The Allies will not accept the
refusal as final and a long series OF
secret legal arguments probably will
follow
This opinion Of the next step that
will be taken by the Allies was ex-
pressed by authoritative sources close
to Lord Chancellor Barkenhead and
Atty. Gen. Sir Gordon Hewart.
At the same time, however, the con-
sensus of opinion in England is that
Holland will get the best OF the nego-
tiations that are to come. and that 1t
ultimately will be shown that the for
mer Emperor is not to be had unless
he voluntarily surrenders. This is re-
garded as an extremely remote possi-
bility.
Hollands reply refusing to give up
the ex-Kaiser will be presented to the
Supreme Council as its next meeting
in London. 1t is intimated that the
Allied legal experts are prepared to
answer Hollands principal objections,
which rest on the following four
points; Americas detection. Hol-
lands Interpretation of the rights OF
political refugees, the fact that Hol-
land is not amenable to the peace
treaty. to which she is not a party
and. finally. Hollands Interpretation
Of the rights of nsutrals.
The Council of Premiers probably
will receive the reply officially, al
thoagh the Ambassadors OF the vari-
Gus countries may direct the exchange
Of notes with Holland. 1t was intl-
mated that arrangements already have
been made for private conferences be-
tween Lord Berkenhead, Hewart and
other representatives Of the Allies
with Dutch legal authorities, in which
Hollands objections will be discussed.
Inasmuch as the arguments to be
advanced by the Allied legal authori
ties will be identical with the evidence
that later would be presented at the
trial of the ex-Kaiser, publicity is de-
clared to be impossible.
In view of the attitude that has
been taken by the German Govern
ment, it is not believed the Berlin au-
thorities would not ask that the Kaiser
be turned over to them, even should
Holland intimate that such a request
would be granted.
The best that the Allies may get out
OF their efforts to try the Kaiser here,
is an opportunity officially to publish
the evidence that has been amassed
against him. This would come after
the final negotiations with the Dutch
authorities have been concluded.

DEPORTATION FOR
ALIEN COMMUNISTS
Wilson Holds Membership in

BLOW TO THE ORGANIZATION

Hundreds Rounded Up In
Recent Raids Are Al

Washington-A final blow was
struck by the Government at the ac-
tivities of the Communist party Of
America. when Secretary Of Labor
Wilson sanded down an opinion iustl-
flying the right of the Government to
deport aliens who are members Of
this organization. The Secretary ruled
in the specific case OF Englebert Preis.

tion of whom was ordered.
The opinion affects hundreds Of such
aliens rounded up by the Department
of Justice. Many OF these foreigners
are interned at Ellis Island, N. Y,
where their deportation has been held
up pending the decision of the i'm
migration authorities and the Secre-
tary of Labor as to whether member.
ship in the Communist organization is
such as to justify deportation under
the Alien act passed by Congress in
October. 1918.
The decision of the Secretary is
based on quoted extracts from the
manifesto, program and constitution
of the Communist party of America
and the manifesto Of the Communist
International, with which 1t is ami
lated. These extracts, the Secretary
holds, show beyond question that the
organization was created for the pur-
pose of overthrowing the Government
Of the United States by violence.
In view of the large membership Of
foreigners in this organization the Fed
eral authorities expect that the deci-
sion will go far toward destroying not
