Fiume Issue in American Politics,


One Of the racial influences con-
tributing to the enormous volume OF
Mr.. Harding's plurality was the ami
mostly aroused against President
Wilson's administration among citi-
zens of Italian birth or ancestry on
the issue of Fiume. His assertion Of
a manifestly just policy aroused in
tense bitterness among voters of
Italian blood. and that bitterness was
industriousIy cultivated by republican
campaigners. Fiume was an excellent
talking point. Mr.. Wilson's attitude
cost the democratic party many thou
sands Of votes.
1t may BE- too much to expect that
the Fiume issue will serve az a lesson
to other racial elements in this coun-
try. The Italian whose vote at the
last election was influenced by the
Plume issue found his justification in
the early course of the Italian gov
eminent, which had its most ardent
defenders among republican spell
binders, most Of whom knew nothing
shout the merits of the issue and cared
still less. As 1t has been. SO. In all
human probability. 1t will. be again
when occasion shall arise. Still. the
Fiume incident. ended by the Italian
governments acceptance of the course
Mr.. Wilson urged. will be remembered
as q significant illustration OF the
rtdiculoua, illogical and often DANGER
GUS consequences which flow from the
injection Of racial prejudtces into
American politics.-Brook1yn Eagle

WHEAT PRICES ARE
HEAVY IN CHICAGO
Fall Due to Continued Inflow
of Canadian Grain and Sharp
Break in Winnipeg.

CHICAGO. April 1s.-wheat prices
tumbled to-day. owing largely to con-
tinued importation OF Canadian wheat
and sharp break in values at Winni-
peg The market closed heavy at 3i2 a.
4Ac. net lower. with May at sl.24a
124l4 and July a. sl.o5A a 1.o5 u.
Corn lost ssgAc.. and oats, nc. 70
%a1c. The finish in provisions was
unchanged TO s5c. down
At first the wheat market showed con-
siderable strength as result of fear
that low temperatures had damaged the
new crop. Field advices. however, In
dicated that the damage. IL any, would
prove TO be Of only minor character.
Then attention Of traders shifted 70 oig
receipts in the Northwest, swollen oy
arrivals from Canada by Steamship ana
rail. Uncertainty as to progress OF tne
emergency tariff bill in the senate also
tended to give advantage TO bears. ~
that iuncture word came of collapse
in prices at Winnipeg. news which
greatly accelerated The downward swing
Of the market here. Selling pressure
was given further impetus at the last by
the fact that the decrease in the domes-
tic visible supply was much smaller than
had been looked for.
Corn and oats weakened with wheat,
but were steadied somewhat DIS result
OF export sales of 500, 900 bushels of
corn and by signs of some foreign CAL
for oats.
In provisions the effect OF higher ate-
tations on hogs was soon more than
counterbalAnced by grains hear'sh

Britain Warns Americans
Passports Are Required

WASHINGTON, April 49,
Warnings to Americans
that British passport require
ments had not been relaxed, with
the exception of those applying
TO Canada, Bermuda and the Ba-
hamas, where American citizens
are not required to show pass
ports, was issued to-day by the
British Embassy.
The statement was prompted
by the possibility that relaxation
Of American rules requiring for
eign bound citizens to obtain
passports might be misconstrued.
A number of Americans were
said to have started for Great
