INVITE WILSON TO
JOIN In PROPOSAL
British and French Premiers
Suggest Proposals for New
Adriatic Settlement.

Notwithstanding invitation Of the
British and French premiers TO presi-
dent Wilson to join them in formal
proposal to the Italian and JugoSlaV
governments to negotiate a new Adrl-
attic settlement on the basis of the
withdrawal of all previous agreements
was received Friday by President VIII
son.
1t was pointed out, however that.
while adhering to the agreement or
December 9, the president in his last
reply to the premiers had said that he
would "of course make no objection to
a settlement mutually agreeable to
Italy and Jugo-davia provided
that such an agreement is not made
at the expense of the nationals OF
third power"
If the premiers' proposal is accepted
by the president, Italy and Jugo-Slavia
will have their first opportunity to I'M
dertake settlement between them
selves. Officials would not voice their
opinions as to the probabilities Of sue
cess of such direct negotiations.
There is such a wide divergence be-
tween the territorial aspirations of the
two countries, however, that it was
regarded as almost certain that such
negotiations, to be successful, would
consume many months.
What appeared to be at least a
cam; oFf cum, a ~ of tho ia
note was received in press dispatches
from London only a short time after
the official text had reached the state
department and before it had been laid
before the president.
1t was noted from the summary of
the premiers' note, as transmitted in
the press dispatches, that Great Brit
ain and France had not agreed to the
withdrawal of the treaty of London,
holding to its terms as a last resort
should all efforts at voluntary agree
ment fail
President Wilson has made il clear
that he can not accept the treaty of
London as basis for a settlement
Under the premiers' proposals, how
ever, no effort would be made to carry
out the terms of this treaty until an
other attempt had been made by the
United States, Great Britain and
France to arrive at a settlement.
should the proposed negotiations be
tween Italy and Jugo-Slavia come to
naught.
