BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

AS was easily foreseen, the Italo-
Fiume war has come to a speedy end
with the collapse of Annunzio's re-
sistance. The poet, who had declared
he would interpose his bloody corpse
between the Italian forces and Fiume,
thought better of it, and on Wednes-
day issued a proclamation saying that
he now felt disposed to defend his life
by all means, since it was not worth
while to throw it away in the service
of people whom he now despises.
Therefore he was about to leave Fiume
by airplane. The mayor of that city
and it's director of national defense
agreed to recognize the treaty of RIA
pablo. D'AnnunziO consented to re-
lease his legiOnnaires from their oaths
of allegiance, and it was arranged
that they should be disbanded and that
the Italian government should issue a
proclamation of general amnesty.
There was rejoicing throughout Italy
over the settlement, for the Italians
did not at all like the Job of shooting
down their fellow countrymen.
Peace was not attained without
much bloodshed, for the legionnaires
fought desperately and bravely for
several days after General Caviglia's
troops began the real attack. Taking
advantage of the rough terrain about
the city, they laid many ambuscades
and conducted a guerrilla warfare
with hand grenades and machine guns
that cost the lives of many regulars.
In the city they poured hot fire from
the balconies, roofs and windows of
apparently abandoned buildings, and
even the women helped. The Italian
military authorities refused to use ar
tillery against the city itself, striving
to save it from destruction, but the
warships in the harbor bombarded the
outer defenses. D'Annunzio was
slightly wounded in the head by
fragment of a shell. The curtain has
now fallen on this latest tragi-comedy
of the warrior poet, who says he is
ashamed of being an Italian.

Following stormy sessions in Tours,
in the course of which the members
sometimes came to blows, the French
Socialist party has split into three
factions. The left wing has voted to
obey the commands of Lenine and to
adhere fully to the third interna-
tionale; the right wing opposes throw
ing the party organization into the
hands of the communists; and the cen
trists adhere to the internationale
with reservations. This last faction
may split, one half joining the left
wing and the other going with the
right. A woman agent of the Moscow
International, who reached Tours de-
spite the efforts of the government to
keep her out, had much to do with the
stand taken by the extreme radicals.

Italy declared he could not leave be-
cause of the Fiume crisis. SO far
France has been insistent on the COM
plete disarmament of Germany, and it
is not unlikely that she will proceed
alone with the military measures
seemingly justified by Germanys vio-
lation of the Spa pact. Then it will
be up to Great Britain and Italy to
decide whether to support their ally
or to call her off, as they did once be-
fore, in the interests of a financial
settlement with Berlin.

British organized labor has definite
ly ranged itself against the govern
ment in the Irish controversy, at least
so far as government methods are con-
cerned.N The labor commission which
visited Ireland has made its final re-
port in which it scathingly denounces
the course Of the English authorities
in Ireland and expresses the belief
that coercion will be unable to sup
press either the Sim Fem movement
or the republican army" The latter,
it asserts, is formidable because it is
not concentrated and has the sympa-

the population. OF murders and re-
