Italy Not to Enforce
London Treaty Until
Other Measures Fail

Paris, Jan 22--Italy will demand
Of France and England the carrying
out of the treaty of London only
when all other means of settling the
Adriatic question have been tried
and found futile, according to a
statement made by Premier Nitti to
a representative of the Echo dc
Paris. The correspondent accom-
panied the Italian premier from this
city to Nice, and was told by Signor
Nitti that his trip to Rome was
brought about solely by the railroad
strike in Italy.
"The reply of the Jugo-Slav gov
crnment to the note Of the supreme
council relative TO conflicting claims
on the eastern shores of the Adriatic
does not satisfy us" the premier is
quoted as saying, but we have gone
to the extreme limit in making con-
cessions. The world should realize
that for the sake OF Fiume we re-
nounce Dalmatia which was given
to US by the pact of London. We
hope that after few days further
reflection the Jugo-Slavs will send
an acceptable answer"
Premier Nitti expects to return to
Paris soon to resume his work in
the peace conference.

Be NOT PASSED
Other Opponents Of Measures
Proposed Also Air Their
Views Before House
Committee.

Washington, Jan. 22-Opponents
Of anti-sedition measures, led by
Samuel Gompers, president Of the
American Federation OF Labor,
urged the house rules committee to
block the passage of the measures
because of their drastic provisions
and because sufficient laws now ex-
ist to prosecute dangerous radicals
and communists.
Attorney General Palmer, who
previously had announced his sup
port Of both the Sterling bill. which
passed the senate, and the Graham
measure, which has been held up in
the house because of the drastic
death penalty provision, failed to
appear in defense of the measures.
The attorney general, however, sent
a letter to Chairman Campbell Of the
rules committee, stating he was I'M
PEELED to say that neither OF the bills
accords with my views as to what
the legislation ought to be-" and
recommended as substitute bill
which he drafted last November and
which was introduced several weeks
ago by Representative Davey, dem-
ocrat of Ohio.
Fine of $4,000.
The Davey bill provides fines not
exceeding $4,000 and imprisonment
for not more than 20 years for per
sons convicted of an attempt to
overthrow the government, or of
acts of violence against the govern
ment. TIL: measure also would pro-
hibit writings or teachings which
constitute sedition.
The Department of Justice is
ready, Mr.. Palmer informed the
committee, to enforce whatever leg
islation congress should see fit to
pass.
Mr.. Gompers, appearing as the
spokesman for the American Feder-
alton of Labor, denounced the pend
ing bills in unqualified terms. Mass
with the orderly purpose TO
strike to improve living conditions
would be suppressed under the bills,
asserted Mr.. Gompers, adding that
strikes and cessations of labor are
nothing more or less than aspira-
tons Of working people to improve
their conditions.
Il do not believe this species OF
legislation will stihe the things it is
to do" Gompers asserted,
but rather it will provoke the op-
posite. 1t will tie men to their jobs"

EDITOR DENIES
CHARGES ABOUT
NAVY ARE FALSE.
Rathom Answers Roosevelt and
Says Evidence Will Back
Up, Statements.

Washington, Jan. 22-Chairmar
Page of the senate naval committee
appointed Senators Ball, Delaware;
Keyes. New Hampshire, aud King
Utah, to determine whether all in.
vestigation should be made into
charges by John r. Rathom Of the
Providence OR. ~ Journal, that i'm.
moral conditions exist in the navy
with the full knowledge of Secre,
tary Daniels.
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt said
Mr.. Rathom's charges were, "in
view of the circumstances, deliber-
ate and malicious attempt to create
trouble in addition to being false"
Rathom Replies.
Providence, R. l., Jan. 22.-John
X. Rathom, editor of the Providence
Journal, replied to a statement OF
Franklin D. Roosevelt, in which the
assistant secretary of the navy as
serted that Mr.. Rathom's charges
that immoral conditions i'll the navy
existed with the full knowledge of
Secretary Daniels were malicious
and false. Mr.. Rathom said in part:
1--WE are about to present to the
senate committee list of seven
specific charges against the officials
of the Navy department backed by
hundreds of pages of official testi-
mony and the names of IS witnesses.
No Interest in Men.
The Providence Journal has no
interest whatever in the men who
have been accused by the Navy de-
partment. 1t knows none of them
and is not in any way concerned
in their guilt or innocence. In pre-
senting these charges we have only
one aim in view-the maintenance
of honorable and decent conditions
in the United States navy and of
its morale, the protection of tens
of thousands of honorable officers
and enlisted men in the navy and the
punishment Of the brute beasts re-
sponsible for the present conditions
and those who have permitted such
to exist.
"Mr. Roosevelts statement that
our charges constitute a maliciously
vicious, dishonest and dishonorable
attack is absolutely false in every re-
spect, and we stand by the evidence
and witnesses we are ready to pro-
duce to prove the truth of every
charge we have made"
