PEACE IN TIE ApRIATic.

After threatening all kinds of dire results because Of the failure of those most directly concerned to agree on a settiepent of the situation in the Adriafic, the solution appears to have en reached by the aot teTtsrce on the part of the Jugosiays of the terms agreed to by Italy and submitted by the supreme council. Jugoslavia has taken sober second thought. It has done so reluctantly but it has appar- ently seen the importance Of ending the dispute and setting in motion peace time undertakings which are greatly needed there as well as in oth- CT sections of devastated Europe,
 Tie terms that the Jugoslavs have agreed to mean concessions on the part Of both sides. Italy gave up it's claim to Ffun1e, about which so much has been said in the efforts to adjust the trouble This puts to an end the seizure of that city by D'Annunzio and his followers and that city, to which the Jugoslavs also laid claim will be administered under the direc- ton of the league of nations. It will be an open port and by the arrange ul6nLs uSpSldNld vii DS pIONiuSu WI an outlet to the sea. The adjustments ts along the eastern coast of the Adriatic leaves Italy with less than it sought but virtually in control even though the islands are derniiitaTized.
 The agreement is one to cause gen. eral satisfaction since both countries get recognition for the part they play ed in the great war. and it is far pref erable that there should be an agree fnent than that the council of ambas- sadors or the league of nations should be left to enforce a decision that was agreeable to, one and not to the other. And the relations of the countries in voived as well as the feeling through out that region are bound to be much better. It is a compromise that ought to work out well and mean peace ra- ther than trouble in the Adriatic.
