FIuME, March 6 (Associated Press) -
Messages from Gabriale d'Annunzio were
read yesterday evening from the same
balcony here from which the poet-soldier
harangued the crowds during his time
In Fiune. The first message was adj
dressed to Deputy Giuriati, who was
Chief of Cabinet in the D'Annunzo
Ministry. 1t declared that conciliation

The Nationalists have sent a message
to Premier Facta pointing out in sup
port of their cause the opposition of
the Gothardi party to President Zanella.
Ruggero Gothardi. who was president
of the Democratic autonomous party
of Fiume, was exiled by D'Annunzc.
He pleaded for the free state at the
peace conference and is regarded by
the followers of D'Annunzio as a pro-
Croat. The Nationalists now cite q

tacking Zanella as "a despot who could

Notification by the Italian Govern
ment to-day of April 10 as the date
OF the Genoa conference makes virtu-
ally certain the conference will be held

again in the meantime or Premier Lloyd

invited Governments. including Wash

be convenient to them.
The inclusion OF the United States in
this notice is significant of the intense
desire still prevailing in Europe to see
America represented. Notwithstanding
the absence of any proof that the United
states intends to accept the invitation.

ments stand, unless his presence be de-
manded imperatvely during some stage
OF the conference, the principal reason
for his absence being that President
Millerand will be visiting the <-frican
colonies at the time. Also France wishes
to avoid a repitition of her sad expe-
rience in Washington Of changing her
delegation. She intends that her dele
cation shall be composed of statesmen
who will remain throughout the confer
ence. There are expected to be several
weeks of debate. at first followed by
committee work on the part of the ex-
perts, and then a resumption OF the
plenary sersions OF the conference
stretching out for several months.
Intense interest attaches to the report
presented by the French experts to-day
to Premier Poincare in advance of the
allied meeting in London wherein
comprehensive scheme for Russian re-
construction is outlined according with
French ideas. The main points are
FIRST-Development of northern and
southern Russian cities as bases from
which central Russia gradually can re-

grain from French agricultural regions
SECOND-Immediate repair of Rus

material available in French, German

difficulties are foreseen. owing to the

LONDON, March (Associated Press)
Austen Chamberlain to-day told the
House of Commons that the cost Of
the British delegation to the Washing
ton conference was not expected to ex-
ceed $4,000.
He said the abandonment OF the con-
struction Of four capital ships would
mean saving in 1922 of approximately
f3,000,00O and that ultimately saving
Of f3o.O00,000 would result from the
Washington conference. Total savings
on estimates for 1922 and 1923 probably
would exceed 100000, 900. he added.

BERLIN, March 6 (Associated Press) -
The Rechstag's main commission has
urged the desrability of the early ap-
pontment of an Ambassador to Wash
ington, but the Cabinet is not showing
an inclination to accelerate the search
for suitable envoy while the mark is
again declining in value. 1t is declared
that full fledged embassy in Wash
ington would require a budget of at least
100,000,000 marks under the present rate
Of exchange.
Count Won Bernstein, former Ambas-
sador to the United States, warned the
commission against insisting on undue
curtailment of appropriations for foreign
missions. especially those in South and
Central America, which he designated as
!'the land of the future" for Germany.
