ITALIAN VISITORS
DINED BY WILSONS
War Mission and Cabinet Of
cials and Congressmen Are
- White House Guests.
HONORS OCCUPY FIRST DAY
fcody Is Made TTp of Experts In Mil
itary Operations, Who Are Eager
to Act in Conjunction With
American Authorities.
WASHIXGGTOX, May 24. The Prince
of Udine and other members of the
Italian war mission were the Rue. :s of
President Wilson at a late dinner at
the White House tonight, choosing a
day spent by the visitors in receiving
honors similar to those conferred on
their British and French predecessors
and in making the acquaintance of the
American officials with whom they will
negotiate during, the coming month.
TheWhite House dinner brought to
gether to meet the Italians many lead
ing officials of the American govern
ment. In addition to the President and
Mrs. Wilson, the members of the mis
sion and the Italian Ambassador, the
guest list Included the members of the
cabinet and their wi-es. Chief Justice
White, Senator Saulsbury, President
pro tern of the Senate; Speaker Clark,
tent himself with., the . disposal of a :
single division of troops and a regi
ment of marines to France. In his
message recommending that Congress
declare the existence of a- slate of war,
he said he would use all the power and
all the resources or the United States
to defeat the Imperial Oerman govern
ment. This" can mean only one thing
the dispatch to Kurope of all the men
necessary to achieve his purpose.
War Mar Come ta I'nited State.
"The war must be fought either In
Europe or on this side of the Atlantic,"
remarked a. member of the Cabinet
especially In the confidence of the
President., He desired by the state
ment to 'make clear that failure on the
part of this Government to act vigor
ously and promptly might result In
German success in Europe and leave
the United States to cope alone with
the German land and naval forces.
Not that it is believed for a moment
that either Great Britain or France
would abandon this country, but com
mon prudence demands that we take
advantage of the strength of the allies
and so overwhelmingly back them up
that the end of the war will be certain
and come quickly. So It is evident
that more men, hundreds of thousands
of them, will go abroad to fight with
the British and French troops under
the banners of democracy and human
ity. When they will go, who their
commanders will be these, too, are
military secrets.

rice, who is chief director of military
operations at the British War Office.
'Yet the Italian offensive." he con
tinued, "was only made possible bv the
borough offensive work of the Anglo-
French forces during the past few
weeks. If we had not been keeping the
Germans busy, the Italians would not
nly have found an offensive Impossi
ble, but would actually have been faced
by agreat Austro-German attack."
Discussing the battle of Arras as a
whole. General Maurice said:
Our best comparison is still with the
battle of the Somme.
Our losses this year continue SO per
cent smaller,
re engaged. We already have gained
four times as much ground as in the
whole Somme battle and have taken
many times more prisoners and guns."
General Maurice attaches great sig-
if icance to the continuance of the cap-
ures of Germans by the entente forces
n the Franco-Belgian front.

Issued an order that 'no commander
should allow his men to surrender un-

summarily to account.' "
