have no intention of suffocating their development, but we must have cor dial relations with them! For this reason I have always favored a direct accord between Italy and Jugoslavia, since any solution imposed by one side would be the cause for war. Any delay in reaching this friendly under standing is injurious to Jugcslavia and also to Italy.
 The situation of Italy is not happy, but what European country emerged from the war with a happy situa ton :? The discipline of the popular classes in Italy has been affected by the bad example of the bourgeois classes When officers. even if inspired by patriotic ideals. disobeyed, the people also considered they had the right to disobey. (Signor Nitti alluded to the expedition of d'Annunzio to Plume a year ago.) Exaggera tions with re- gard to her Adriatic aspirations have been the worst evil for Italy.
 ''I cannot believe in a revolutionary movement in Italy. Revolutionaries here can only be mad or Irresponsible. Italy has an average of 332 inhabit- ants to every square mile and 40 to every cultivated square mile, but she has no coal, while her hydraulic power has taken 10 years of constant work to develop. Besides, she needs about 3,0O0.000 tons of wheat yearly, besides iron, cotton. wool and other things. IT lLdIy e8pGTlenCou d ESNo- lution one-third of her population would die of starvation.
 "In 20 centuries Italy has been the only country of Europe that has not had a revolution. I firmly believe Italy will soon overcome all her diff cuties if she solves two problems, namely, the Adriatfc question and the bread question. on both of which her financial settlement depends. I do not believe in a revolutionary danger, be- cause the present situation of Italy is not much different from that of Eng land after the Napoleonic wars.
 ''Italo-French relations are a very delicate subject. The two countries, allied in war, must be friends in peace with a good understanding of each other. We do not wish any people to be oppressed. Therefore. after we had fought Austria I receieved the Austrian Chancellor Renner in Rome as a friend. The support given by me to the economic reconstruction of Ger many has caused great. but unjust re- sentiment in France. France herself has an interest in assisting in the re- construction of Germany, which means the restoration of Europe. Italy will not participate in any alliance, wish ing only the revival of Europe and the consolidation of peace, which will be the program of all dem mocracies."

PRO-JAPANESE
 CHINESE CLIQUE
 IS IN HIDING
Political Plotters Sought By Government-Prominent
 Men Wanted

Picking, Oct. 2-The fall of the "Anfu clique" commonly identified as the pro-Japanese party of China be cause of the facility with which the Japanese have concluded loans with China in exchange for valuable con- sessions and privileges during the period of it's predominance, is seem ingly complete and irrevocable. So complete is the collapse that it's chief representatives are at the mo-, ment in hiding with prices on their heads.
 For five days every avenue leading from the Legat tion Quarter has been watched day and night and every been subject to inspection, on the suspicion amounting to belief that those wanted are harbored in some one or several of the legations and cape from the city. Likewise all city gates are closely guarded to prevent passage of any on the pro- Scribed list
 It is customary in Picking to post in railway stations and places generally where people congregate posters with the picture of persons known to be pickpockets, sneak thieves or | the oldest resident, have men who have occupied high places of au- thority in affairs of the nation in af- fairs Of the nation been so placarded.

Rewards, ranging from s10,000 to s30,000 were publicly of fered for their delivery into GUS tody.
 As an afterthought, the photo graph of one of those placarded was removed, General Tuan Chi-kueis, because of indignity to the uniform i which he was shown to be wearing.

WHAT IS BASIS
 FOR THE BITTER LEAGUE ATTACK?

Article 10, which The Times re- prints below, was the line which the partisan political forces opposed to the League were reformed. At first the cry was "Shantung"; but, this proving insecure footing for dem agogy, it was abandoned in favor of Article 10, which declares:
 The members of the League
 undertake to respect and pre-
 serve as against external aggres-
 sion the territorial integrity and
 existing political independence of
 all members of the League.'s In
 case of any aggression, or in case
 of any threat or danger of such
 aggression, the Council shall ad-
 wise upon the means by which
 this obligation shall be fulfilled.
 The wording left the United States free to understand the clause: And Congress, under the Constitution, shall be the sole judge of the part this na- ton shall play" These words are as certainly in the Article as if they were written in, being supplied by the prior provision in the Covenant that Coun- cil decisions must be unanimous. Since the United States is to be a member of the Council it's represent atives perforce would have to agree before any decision could be made by that body. That we would agree to military measures without action of Congress is unthinkable. But, sup pose that a United StatesArepresent- ative went crazy and dif this, and that a President went crazy and sup ported his mad minister; the situation is wholly preserved by the Cox reser- vation stating that war powers are specifically reserved to Congress. Thus every contingency cited by the critics of Article 10 is provid ed against. This Article is truly the "heart of the Covenant" giving to the League that unity and force with out which it will be unable to pre- vent wars. The war of 1914-191S was based upon an invasion of territorial intgrity; and Colonel Roosevelt de- clared that the United States should have, at once, taken arms by reason of it. Article. 10 does not go any where near to such an extreme.

Besides a presid ential decree is going forth dis solving all branch organizations in all headquarters of the Anfu Club have been searched and the doors sealed.

PAPER co. RECEIVES
MAMMOTH BOILER

\ 3-furnace Scotch marine boiler was
recently purchased at Duluth for the
paper mill to replace Il smaller one that
has worn out after IS years of cOntin-
uOuS service. This Duluth boiler is
14A feet in diameter and 1874 feet
long and has capacity of 800 horse
power. 1t was loaded on a fiat car and
started for Ladysmith with a special
train as the boiler could not be moved
faster than ten miles per hour. The
bridge across the Chippewa river at
Murry was too narrow, so it was neceS-
Sary to turn the boiler around with the
result that the boiler cleared the
bridge by only a fraction of an inch.
This is the largest boiler ever trans
ported by a railroad company, the for
mer record being 1872 feet, and it re-
Quired , days to move it from Duluth
