THE ITALIAN CLAIMS With two ot the five big powers represented at Paris most Americans have lost patience lately, because they showed so little of the spirit which has been supposed to animate the allies in this war, and which Am ericans have hoped to see prevail In the peace settlement. Those nations are Japan and Italy. And of the two Italy has probably been the more Irritating, because from her more was expected. The case has been well put by a blunt article in the New- Republic. Commenting on the recent state ment made by the Italian embassy thatItaly was on the verge of revo lution as a result of a fuel and food famine, the writer says: "This being the case,. this having been the case for months, what have we heard from the Italian govern ment? That she wants coal and food; that she wants to start her in dustries? Not at all. Flume and Dalmatla, Dalmatia and Flume, nav al bases, strategic crests, the Adria tic as an Italian lake, the frightful danger to Italy from the non-exist ent Jugo-Slar navy, rocks and inlets, acid mountain villages and fishing porta, and everything but the truth. "When Italy's friends have said to her statesmen that economic life could not be revived by strangling the trade of central Europe, they would not listen. Faced with an imminent revolution at home they have actually threatened twice to quit the conference at Paris because they could not plant their flag on the gates of other people's territory. They have masted sympathy; they (have stirred up no end of irritation; they have put 'Italy in the worst pos sible light before the world. "Who pays? The common people of Italy. The peasants and the workmen. They starve. They are out of work.' They are unassisted because the Italian officials under the influence of special moneyed groups and intoxicated with tha no tion ot being a ruling power have consistently sabotaged the peace negotiations, raised a hue and cry over side issues and left unargued the real needs of Italy." This is drastic, but as every well Informed American must recognize, it is deserved. Italy has endangered the world's peace by Insisting on the technical fulfillment of a secret treaty made early in the war offer ing her not only Trent and Trieste tut also Flume and the Dalmatian oast. That was a desperate proffer made by Britain and France at a des perate time. America had not enter ed the war; The purposes of the allies had not Ibecome fixed. - The moral and political Issues were not yet clear. The world trusted and admired Italy because she professed only to Ibe defending the right and seeking to bring her own "unre 2-lb. Pails 5-lb pails KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY Quality First deemed" people back into the na tional fold. The war finally boiled down to two or three simple issues of right and wrong, chief among them being the right of every people to "self-determination." The war was won. New nations were created, with their needs and rights. Italy, having won Trent and Trieste, insisted on her pound of flesh. She must have Flume, though she has plenty ot seaports without it, and It is the only decent seaport available tor the new democracy of. Jugoslavia, and the population is mostly Slavic. She must hare the whole Dalmatian coast, thereby shutting oft Greater Serbia from the sea, though she does "Hot need it for protection, and the territory is not Italian. And her Infatuated statesmen for those Im moral and unnecessary demands would wreck the peace settlement. Italy will have to yield. A gov ernment so insane must be hit on the head with a club; and either the other allies or the Italian people must swing the club, for the good of Italy herself no less than the rest of the world. Poor Relative's Figure. She said with a sigh, "My. how glnd I am that I hnve a poor relative's fig ure I (. I caD wear anything from the frocks made for Cousin Anne, who Is nearly six feet and looks like a clothes pin, to the units built for Cousin Jane, who Js five . -ft and weighs one hun dred and eighty."
