That it coded TO Italy the corridor
that the corridor with Fiume as a
lfree city paved the way for annex
Iation to Italy, that the modificat ton
of the Jugo Slay italian frontier

that it provided for. the petition
of Albania, The premiers remark

! ignored the great advantage con
ferred on Jugo-Slavia at the same

Lpshot of the agreement was 10
give Jugo-SlaVia 10000 more
JugO-SlaVs than the original pro
posal. The premiers argued that
! the guarantees of the league of
nations were sufficient to guard
against the annexation President
Wilson feared and his criticism of
italian domination of the railway
was replied to by holding it "a
commercial and not strategic
railway and adding that "under
President Wilson's proposal 1t is
commanded by Italian guns"
Details of the administration of
Albania, they said, were yet to be
elaborated and the feelings and flu

until after hearing his views.
In a lengthy argument the pre-
miers declared the proposal of De-
cember has fallen to the ground
because nobody now wants to set
up the artificial free state of
Fiume," and added that the United
States, having no representative at
the deliberations, cannot be in close
