at 1044 Center street.
Oliver Beers was born April 10, 1843,
hardly two years after his father at

Peris, May ' 3. (United Tress.)
Italian headquarters declared today that
the American, British and French am-
bassudors in Rou.o are inuking over
tures for the return of the Italian poaea
delegates to Paris.
Paris, May 3. (United Press.)
"Italy naturally desires to psn.ripats
in the peace conference." and 'Italian
circles feel that something should b
done to "prepare the ground for the re
turn of the Italian delegates" a rs
Italian official told the United Prets
today.
The official said the attitude of th
other allies in going ahead with tha
peace settlement without paying aV
apparent attention to the Italians' ab
sense is "beyond understanding."
Apology Expected.
Without saying so directly, the offi
cial made it apparent the Italian gov
ernment feels the peace conference
should do something regarding President
Wilson's appeal to tho Italian ium
is his statement regarding Fiume. So
long as this stands, the government
feels delegation cannot return to Paris,
having been publicly affronted. Just
what the Italians expected is not ex
actly i-U ur, though it is apparent that
if Wilson will ''lake bark his stutu
ment " or if the conference will formal
ly invite the delegates to return, that
will suffice. Neither of these, oUicinls
ssv, is in prospect, so far as can'ba
learned.
In some circles it is suggested thnt
it is entirety necessnry for Premier Or
lando and Foreign Minister Sonnino to
return so (hat Italy" may complete her
work in the conference. A way may bo
found, however for other Italian dclo
eates to represent her, it is said.
