q .Gs PARIS, Thursday.
4 IL, begins to leoh as IL the protocol
signing will not take place next Saturday.
A few days ago Germany protested against
the number OF allied troops tor be sent
INTO 'the plebiscite region, asking that the
number DO cut down considerably
Thereupon tho Supreme Council said
that as the United States had not ratified
the treaty. there would be no American
soldiers among the troops in the plebiscite
region, which fact in itself served to
reduce the size of the allied forces there.
Germany now says she is unable to pay
for the troops of the Allies, as she is out
Of cash, and asks that money be advanced
to her. by the Allies for this purpose. 1t
was eported that Ambassador Wallace
was approached and asked If the United
states would consent to advance the
money necessary, particularly as the
plebiscite scheme was one of: President
WILSON'S proposals.
Another report is that the meeting
of the Premier-s Here will not take up the
sof Turkey. Several weeks ago
the French accepted the British view that
Constantfnople should be internationalized,
although the French press inclines to let
ting the Sultan stay on his job in his same
old office. The French now assert that
since the Turkish matter has been allowed
to drag along, it might as well go over
little longer and permit the new French
government to take up the question the
latter part of next month. Z

Republicans Deaf to
Governors Plea for
Dry Referendum
ESPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HEnALp.l

ESPECIAL DESPATCH 10 THE HERAlD.t e
ALBANY. N. Y, Thursday.-The Repub-
lican leaders of the Senate and Assembly
have turned a cold shoulder to Governor
Smiths proposal for referendum on the
liquor question. There will be no referen-
dunn if the Republicans maintain their
control of the two houses. The minority
is powerless to carry out the Governors s
wishes unless a bipartisan combination
can be made, and that is a remote possi-
bility.
The Governor will deal with Republican
legislation on the liquor question in much
the same way they deal with his pro-
posal. The Republicans arc prepared to
accept the Anti-Saloon Leagues enforce
ment bill. already drafted. That measure
will confirm for this State the Nolstead
Enforcement act. The Governor has the
power to veto any bill passed by the Re-
publicans.
William IT. Anderson for Governor on
the Republican ticket was nomination
proposed today by the Governor. He evil
IDENTIFY was not at all pleased by the atti-
tude of the Republicans toward his refer
endum proposal. Answering Mr.. Ander-
sons comment on the referendum, the
Governor said
Anderson is the biggest man in the
Republican party today in point OF in
fluence. as far as can see. Prohibition
Is the issue I'm tho country today. Ander-
son is leading tho Republican party on
this issue in this state. What he said
about me l Leave to his conscience, y he
has any, because no distorted the facts
Republican leaders are con the wrong

based his assertion on the assumption
that none OF tho Republican Senators
had been elected on the platform OF
ratification and that none OF them had
been charged by constituents with
ratification OF the amendment.
And II was on that platform that
was elected he added.
Republican leaders arc understood TO
be ready TO put through their enforce
ment legislation early in the session.
Their programme includes the trans
formation OF the Excise Commission into
an enforcement department. providing

Especial Cable to the Herald.l
fONDON, Thursday.
Anti.prehibitionists In England have
sprung forward to ferestall threatened
Intensified 'dry" campaign by Americans
One of the first evidences of an extensive,
not to say lavish scheme to be followed
to make the so-called ''pussyfoot army
unpopular Is contained In an announce
ment today that the National Free Trade
Defence Association has printed millions
Iof labels OF warning which will be pasted
across every bottle OF alcoholic drink han
died or sold In the United Kingdom.
This label VIII be about the size OF the
usual beer-bottle label and will contain in
one corner caricature OF Uncle Sam"
With a wry face and Tong nose reaching
across the length Of the label and on
which Is written the word Prohibition"
II Is lettered 30 that the word "Prohfbi-
ton" on Uncle Sans" nose will appear
in the correct place in the phrase:--
III prohibition wins. there will be no
more -"
The last word is made to conform to
the contents of the bottle, whether it be
beer. whiskey or wine
Ihe asSocia ton back OF the movement
stated that while saloons can easily be
reached by propaganda, the new scheme
Is intended to remind home and club
drinkers of the menace of prohibition. 1t
believes that by putting labels on every
bottle, nobody will escape Also. as
nearly everybody in England drinks, it
seems that Uncle SANS pictured dis
comfiture will be well advertised
The London press continues to comment
on the report that the American prohi-
bitionists are to spend $50, 100000 to drain
England dry, but nothing has been said
in connection with it over which Ameri-
cans need feel flattered. Several observers
take the angle that $50. .000. 900 spent here is
all right that the more America spends
here the better will the exchange rate be-
Therefore, they say, "let the fanatics
spend all they want to spend" as England,
almost to a man. and even to every
woman, will never give UP their beverages
The Chronicle invites America to spend
many more dollars here, but adds that
there is obstinate prejudice here favor
ing choosing our own methods of social
reform"
'The fox which has lost his tail gener-
ally Is willing to assist in the decaudation
of Others" the Globe says. I'VE can
quite imagine the thirsty and exasperated
Yankee resolving that If he can't have his
drink. then the Britisher can't. However
the plan will not succeed. Our people
already are impatient at foreign interfer-
ence, and II it becomes known that Eng
lands teetotal organizations are living on
American money. our worknen will he
heard from. We propose to eat and drink
what we like. even at the cost of lacerat-
ing the tender feelings OF the whole
Pussyfoot' Johnson tribe"

ALLIES DECIDE ON
Il ALLAN CLAIMS
IN THE ADR|ATlC
Fiume To Be Sovereign State
and Italy to Have Mandate
for Albania.

BUENOs AYREs, Thursday. Great
Britain. France and the United States,
conceding the Italian eharaeteraef Fiurne,
VIII grant that city complete Sovereignty
under the League OF Nations, preserving
only a eustoms union with Jugoslavla. ac-
cordins to memorandum concerning
Dalmatia and Fiupe recently presentesd
by these powers to vittorio sclalola,c The
Italian Forelgn Minister. A.summary .of
the memorandum, telegraphed by its
Rome correspondent, Is published by the
Nedion today.
/ In the inemorandurh the United States.
France and Great Britain recognize as
reasonable the. demands OF Italy with re-
spect to the islands OF Pelagosa, Lissa and
Lussin. off the Dalmhtian coast, granting
full sovereignty to italy. The three Pow
ers concede to Italy a mandate over AL
bania and cohlpIete sovereignty over
Avelona with the hinterland necessary to
its defence. The imemorandum observes
that these concessions appear to safeguard
sufficiently, the. rights and aspirations Of
Italy. Never eftheless guided by a spirit or
friendship, the Powers will take into con-
sideration other demands of Italy. es-
pecially the. diplomatic representation of
Zara, with respect to which "a decision VIII

|, Upon the Italian p1ppositipn TO separate
F'iuine and constitute;it and the 'hfnteriand
asia buffer state completely independents
leaving the; port and railroad to that state.
the memorandum says that the existence
|of F'iume and of the buffer state appear
to eliminate each other reciprocally, be-
cause any form OF separation would, be
to the prejudice of the city as, ,welltas. to
the hinterland. In order tolsafeguard the
Italian character and autonomy of Fiunie
the Powers presenting the memorandum
are disposed to maintain the city under
protection of the League of fNations, aud,
as Italy is part of the League. Tthe memo
randum says it should be- easy TO safe
guard italian interests. az
The Italian demand for a scorridor
which would establish territorial con-
tinuity between Fiume and Italy is held
to be superfluous and tending to create
grave economic and territorial complir
cations.
The demand of Italy for annexation of
the island of Lagosta for strategic rea-
sons, the memorandum contends, appears
unjustified, since Italy's control of the
Adriatic is assured by possession of
Trieste, Pola, Lissa, ,Pelagosa1, and Av-
Iona, as we'll as by the naturalization of
Fiume. 4s
The correspondent of the Naciop in
interpreting the. opinion in italian diplo-
matte circles, says that the memorandum
demonstrates clearly leaning toward
the ideas of President Wilson. almost
king them it's own, and declares that
no solution is possible If these points of
view are maintained. He adds that tho
memorandum establishes, as an official
document. renunciation of the rights
recognized in favor Of Italy by the Treaty
of London with respect to Dalmatia.

FIGHT FOR MILITARY
TRAINING MEASURE
SPLITS COMMITTEE
Representative Kahn Plans to
Garry Struggle to Floor
of House.
Herald bureau,
No. 40 Avenue de fOpcra,
Parla. Thurad1y.

The House Committee on Military Af-
fairs divided today into two factions over
the question of UNIVERSAL military train
ing, with the result that final report to
the House on legislation for reorganiza-
ton of the army may be delayed. Repre-
sentative Kahn, Republican. of California,
brought matters to an issue by announc-
ing the determination to oppose any re-
port to the House that did not carry uni
versal military training as a part Of our
future military policy.
1t is understood that the committee is
evenly divided, ten to ten, against such
training, with one vacancy on the COM
mttee due to the resignation Of Mr. La
Guardia, of New York. Some members on
both sides, however, may change their
position if the period of training is short
ened. a final vote on the section for uni
verstal training was deferred, in the hope
of reaching a compromise.
A partial decision to exclude the section
for universal military training from the
Army Reorganization bill was made in De-
cember during the absence of the chair
man, Representative Kahn. Upon his
return Mr.. Kahn at once made up his mind
to make a fight for this policy both in
the committee and on the floor. When
the committee met today, Mr. Kahn in
formed his colleagues of his determination
and the disclosure Of the division of senti-
ment followed.
my position has been the same on this
question for years. said Mr.. Kahn, and
my views are too well known to need any
further discussion. / believe the country
is with me. and ! propose to make fight
for the policy which. If we had had it be-

A Aioseew wireless says the capture of

The despatch adds that the reds arc con-

the fall OF Rostov-on- Don AND Eoyecher-

The situation in Russia is about as bad
as could be, from an anti Bolshevist point
OF view, according to British War Office
reports. and there are few signs indicating
any likely improvement There are two
especially .menacing developments. In the
first place, General Denikine's army has
peen cut IN two through the Bolshevist
push to the Sea of Azov at Taganrog. and
It's flanks have been thrust back. leaving
a large gap. In addition comes a claim
from the Bolsheviki Of the capture fur
ther east of the town Of Krasnovodsls ny,
the Caspian Sea, and while this is NOT
confirmed 1t is generally accepted az true
The capture of this important port of
krasnoyodsk, it is pointed out, create.
the grave possibility that the Reds NAV
overrun Northern Persia and occupy
Teheran. which would probably mean the
establishment of Bolshevist rule in Persia.
The taking of Krasnovodsk permits the
Reds not only to control large part of
the important Krasnovodsk- k-Merv rail-
road but gives them free access to the
Caspian. There seems little. then, to pre-
vent them from gaining control of the
caspian from the more or less ineffective
volunteer fleet. Once in possession of this
sea there remains only a small British
force and the poorly organized Persian
forces between the Reds and the occupa-
ton OF Teheran and Northern Persia.
through which would exist the possibility
OF their obtaining control of the whole
country.
Baku, with its important oil supplies on
the western coast of the Caspian, seems
likely also to fall into Bolshevist hands,
and its occupation would provide a base
Tor further operations against the rear of
Denikine's hard pressed right wing
IL the Bolshevist reports are true, Cen
eral Denikine has suffered a considerable
disaster. for not only have the Reds
severed all land communication between
his left and right wings, but they have
captured large quantities of war material,
including much sent him by the Allies.
