WILSON AGREES
WITH PREN|ERS
SCohunued from page onel

pneanlllty of the treaty of london the
president is led TO speak with less ra-
serve on account of the frank observa-
tons of the Erencn and British prime
ministers. He is unable to find in the
exigeneies of military strategy suffi-
cient warrant for exercising secrecy
with government which WAS mi
mateiy associated with the siyna,orias
OF the treaty of London in the gigantic
TASK of'defending human freedom and
whleh was being called upon for nm
limited assistance and for untold treas
ure The definite and wei accented
poilcy OF the American governmant
throughout its participation in the de-
iipera'ions of the peace conference was
lhat II did not consider itself honnd
by secret treaties of which il had nra-
Vlousiy had not known the existence
Where the provisions of such Treaties,
were just and reasonable the United
states was willing to respect them. Rnt
the Grench and British prime mini
sters will OF course not expect The eov-
~
ernment of the limited STATES IN an
prove the execution of the terms Of
the treaty of London except insofar
as that government may be convinced
that those. terms are intrinsicaily inst
and are consistent with the mainten-
ahce OF peace and settled order in
southeastern Europe
The absence of an American rem
resentative with plenary power. is to
begretted and may have been a source
of inconvenience but the president can
recall several instances where decis-
ions in the supreme council were de-
iayed while the British and French rem
resentatiNes sought the view of tbei,.
governments and he is convinced thar
time would have been saved and many
misunderstands avoid if before ac,,.,
decisions had been reached and COM
municated to the Italian and Jugo-
Slav delegations this government had
been given sufficient indication of the
fact that the British and French gov
ernments intended radically to depart
from the memorandum of December.
9.
In conclusion, the president desires
TO express his concurrence in the view
OF the British and French ministers
that speedy settlement of the Adria-
TIC question is of urgent Importance
But he cannot accept as Just the nm
piled suggetion of his responsibility
FOR the failure to reach solution. He
has merely adhered to the provisions
Of a settlement which the French and
British governments recognized as
equitable in the joint memorandum of
December and has declined to an
prove a. new settlement negotiated
without the knowledge or approval of
ne American government which was
to one of the interested
government and which, in hi opinion
wa in direct contradiction of the prin-
,iple for the defense of which Amer
lea entered the war. These views he
has fully explained in his note of Feb
'uary 10th and he ventures to express
-he earnest hope that the allied gov
ernments will not find it necessary TO
decide ON a course which the Ameri-
ian government in accordance with
is reiterated tatement will be unable
to follow"

THE HEROINE OF rAnNE ISLANDS

one by one the poor creatures were
SOFTLY placed in the boat. but the re-
turn was even more pcrilous than the
outward journey, but LongStonc WAS
scachcd at last. and the sufferers were
put In the lighthouse hospital.
Grace's heroic deed was soon noiscd
about. and the Longstone lighthouse
became the center or attraction 20
thousands. Grace was given 4
splendid gift.
IL is painful to renect--that this
beloved heroine was destined TO an
carly death, for she was only IS when
consumption carried her on. Grace
had never been healthy. Her health
appearing delicate. she was removed
from tho lighthouse to Marlborough,
and placed under the care OF Il doctor
But the pure. hrncinE atmosphere
gave the invalid no relief, and II was
evident that she was slowly fading.
Her Sathcr grew anxious that she
see her own people.
She then was removed to the light
house only 10 days before her death
Her oldest sister nursed her de
votcdly. but though human love could
soothe her last moment, IL could not
prolong her life.
Through her trying illness she was
never heard 10 murmer a complaint.
Shortly before her death she wished
TO see her relations. and gave them
token OF remembrance.
This done she calmly awaited the
approach OF her death. and she re-
signed her spirit without n murmcr.
The name OF Grace Darling will
always be remembered as the noble
heroine of Farnc Islands
