ITALY WILL SIGN, OR ABIDE.
! Italy in her fuming is shortsighted; she hints at an alliance
with Germany, understanding well that a ninety-horse-power
executive like Herbert Hoover (to say nothing of a man with
the clairvoyant vision of Mr. Wilson) knows this is a preposter
ous bluff. Napoleou said armies travel on their stomachs;
. Hoover, from his last two or three years of European experi
ence, knows that nations have the attributes of civilization or
' chaos, according as they have food. For Italy to talk of an
alliance with Germany, or even a separate peace with Germany,
and Germany shoeless and foodless, would be to suggest piling -Poverty
upon Anarchy and crying: "Hail, Horror! Behold my,
. yrorkV N 1
It can't be done.
Italy's backsets in, the war until American food and Ameri
can raw material came to her aid are tragedies of too recent oc- '
currence to pass unnoticed When the retinue of Premier Orlando
hints of separate peace with Germany Germany saddled with
Bolshevism, still blockaded. Before this happy aid from across
the seas Italy's legions, brave as they were, were in flight.
Premier Orlando's statement, given out in Paris before his
. departure tor Rome, is an admirable, diplomatic communication
as judged by standards set by a bygone generation of diplomats
who used 'language to conceal thought; but when opposed to
President Wilson's statement of the day before it is as chaff
;before the wind..' Moral forces rule nations' destinifes today and
' 'over every creaking drawbridge Of Europe today mouldy ward
ers supinely step aside as Uncle Sam, the greatest champion of
human rights the world -ever has produced, sweeps by, shat
tering all king-set precedents.
Itayl will sign the Treaty of Versailles, along with all the other
Allied nations. There is no escape for her.
The above are the concluding paragraphs of a long article in the
Los Angeles" Times, covering the history of Italy's claims to Frame.
Italy wHl sign the Treaty of Versailles, along with all the other
terms of that document, which will give Fiume, or at least free entry
to. the-Adriatic at that port, to the Jugo Slovaks, or Greater Serbia.
e Italy s armies now hold Fiume.
a long time, lint they are there without warrant, and they will re
main there against the will of the outside world.
And the fact that they are there is doing injury to Italy's good
name and her best interests; and the longer they remain the. greater
loss; and disgrace Italy herself will finally feel.
Ex-President Taft is covering the country, in his advocacy of the
League of Natioas. He is an ideal cPresidcnt. Some one said of
Mr. Taft after 1912 that he was the best-liked, most-abused and
worst-licked of all American Presidents. There has been much fbout
the rise of public respect and admiration for him that shows that he
deserved better and that the people know it. The fact that his posi
tion as to the League of Nations is not approved by many of the
leading-men in his party seems to make no difference with Mr. Taft

The. official coming of peace will be sixty days after the formal
