was party. Fiumes was to be erected
INTO free state under the league of
nations. and in other respects the gem
eral principles of self elf-determination of

force
None Willing TO Route Freebooter.
Seizure Of Fiume by D'Annunzio, it
was suggested had changed conditions
in the Adriatic and the inability or in
disposition of the Italian government to
restore the status quo appeared to place
the weight Of responsibility for doing
so on the entente powers or the United
States. 1t was realized that none Of
these was willing to undertake such a
move and. consequently other measures
to meet the case were considered
As comment on this suggestion in
yolyed disclosure of some of the
features of the latest entente note. the
state department had nothing to say on
the subject.
U. S. Prefers Publicity.
An alternative suggestion contemplate
ing the naturalization of the entire
eastern Adriatic shores and waters was
said to be nothing more than re-
ya12ping of project made early in the
negotiations on the subject. and which
failed of approval. There is reason to
believe, however, that the general
tendency Of the premiers' note is to in
vite the United States TO come forward
with some solution of the problem.
At the state department it was said
that the councils note would receive
careful consideration. making it evident
that some time must elapse before a
reply will be made
While the department has decided not
to make public the presidents com
munication and the councils reply with
out the consent of France, Great
Britain and Italy, it was learned from
sources that the American
government looked with favor on the
publication Of the exchanges, and had
taken steps to ascertain the wishes of
the other governments in the matter.
