W'o solemnly declare it is impossible

There ran be no peace until unity is

We want light lint our enemies want
darkness."
After stating that tho first task of
the assembly would be ratification
L'f the treaty, tho premier declared a
constitution must bo framed, the food
situation ameliorated, u national

Hon and give Europe a tolerable

Deep anxiety lest tho allies send
President Wilson a reply containing
further cause for dissension is ex
pressed by tho Times, "because in
the actual mood they are now in, tho
American people might believe u very
little thing sufficient to make them
withdraw their countenance from Ihe
peace settlement and turn their hacks
for a 'season upon tho affairs of the
old world.'
Klir.MK, Monday, Kelt. Ki. An
nexation of Fiumo to Italy Is now
"impossible," was an admission made
to the Associated Press correspondent
here today by Captain tlahriel dAn-
nunzio, whose forces have been hold
lug this city fur several months.
PARIS, Fob. 17. Although tho ro
ply of tho supreme allied council to
Hrosidenl. Wilson's note relative to
I ho settlement of the Adriatic (mti
tion was drawn up on Saturday, it
has not .yet been sent, according to
special dispatches from London. JOl-
forltj ure being made in certain (Dar
ters to have It toned down, tho dis
patchcH say, hut all refer to tho presi
dent's nuto as a "veto," statements
from Washington, notwithstanding.
(In writing on this subject, "Por
tinax," of the Kcho do Paris, who
Is exceptionally well informed, says
the postscript of Mr. Wilson's memo
randum from which tho no to was
drawn, contained tho most brutal
menace that it his warning was un
heeded he would withdraw both the
treaty of Versailles and tho Angli
American pact from the senate.
UOMK, .Monday, Kel.. Hi. Com
menting on President Wilson's nolo
to tho supreme allied council tho (Ji
ornale d'ltulia says:
"His intervention was couched in
such an uugeuial form as to arou.se
tho suspicion II .was suggested only
by his invincible aversion toward
Italy. Me must have cmivluced oven
his ('(mnalriotK (hat he is guided
only by auimosily. Therefore tlie al
lies lime reacted energetically against
his altftude.which is offensive also
to Iheir dignity as the compromise
proposals sent lo Itelgrado wen
framed chiefly by Premier l.loyd
Ceiiigo. Mr. Wilson, who purposely
was not represented al the discussion
L'f tho compromise, has no right lo
veto its application."
The Co it lore d'ltulia contends that
President Wilson should have ex
pressed his opinion of tho solution
of the Adriatic iiueslion when it was
discussed, instead of wheu it was
about lo be executed, while tho Idea
Naiouale says:
"Secretary Lansing's resignation
proves Mr. Wilson's (.pinion is not the
opinion of Ihe United Stales.
"Italy's calvary is to be prolonged
b the will of u man who Is dictating
the laws of Kuropo," says Italie, a
newspaper printed in Iho French
language.
"Mr. Wtlsou's action," remarks the
Trihunn, "places an insurmountable
obstacle in Ihe way of a seitlemeul
i f the Adriatic question. Tree Ku
rnpe cuiim.t tolerate the i in posit inn of
the will of otie man, who in nowise
represents the view n( his country,
nor even bis own party."

FOR ARMY STORE
Medford is going to have an army
retail store for the sale of surplus
army stores, consisting of foods and
other supplies If tho efforts that have
been and will be put forth by the
(Ireater .Medford club are of any avail.
The women of the club say Medford
must have an army store like many
of the other districts of Oregon.
They will bring the matter up be
fore the city council at the meeting
of the latter body tonight in tho hopo
cf influencing the councilmeu to en
dorse the project and unite In efforts
to have an army store established
here. About a month ago tho Greater
Medford Club made a similar request
of Ihe council, which was turned
down.
The army si ore established recent
ly at Grants Pass will be taken away
from that city as soon as its present
stock is sold out, and tho Greater
Medford chili is working to havo it
then removed to Medford. Tho club
women argue that such a store will
result in muc h saving in the cost of
living to the. people of this city and
vicinity, and instead of hurling the
loqal merchants, will bring more
trade to them, as the sales they lose
through army store patronage will be
more than iff set by the increased
patronage from the rural districts and
outlying Towns, to say nothing of
local money now expended at Grants
Pass.
It is pointed nut that from 10 to
li 0 people daily have heeu going to
Grants Pass to purchase supplies ut
tho army store there, and tho sttre
has been a great benefit to that city
as it will be, if established in .Mddford.
All of tho Grants Pass merchants
signed a petition to have the army
store established there and report
business better than ever before since
its establishment.
A committee of Uie Greater Ned-
ford club consisting of Mesdames W.
Tumy, .1. P. Andrews and 1'. K.
Merrick went to Grants Pass one day
last weok to investigate tho army
store situation there and returned
ht-'tno with a report which makes the
club members all tho moro anxious
to have an urmy store established
hero. i
Besides surplus food supplies, ba
con, beans, etc., the, unity storo now,
sells blankets, shoes, harness and
many other commodities.
