V 3 WILSON DECI.AKF.S HK WON'T YIELD ON ADRIATIC QIESWN t rentes Most Profound Sensation In Peace Conference Wlit-n He Ie noiinrea Secret iKxiiiiieiits, Takes Away Jautn's IIie anil Refuse to lintnt Finnic to Italy. The Italian situation overshadow ed all other questions throughout the day in Paris and was the sole subject of conversation In official and unof ficial circles reports, Thursday Associ ate press. When it became known this morn iS that the Italian premier, Vittorio Orlando, was again absent from the session of the council of four, various rumors became current. Signor Or lando remained at Italian headquar ters, but . messengers carried him n.any notes. Proposals and counter-proposals were made between the members of the British, French and Italian dele gations, and numerous stories of com promises were circulated. These were suddenly discredited by the insuance of President Wilson's statement, showing that the President was not a party to the proposed concessions, which were chiefly based on the sup positon that Flume could be given to Daly. The idea, which had been prevalent in Paris, that the Adriatic situation was a game of chess, in which the most skilful diplomats would win, re gardless of the armistice conditions, was suddenly banished by President Wilson's action. Since Monday it has been generally known that he had prepared a state ment which was presented on that day and thnt the delegation had ap proved it. Dut there was no suspicion that his position was so unalterably against secret diplomacy. Declarations by the members of the American delegation that the Presi dent would not yield on the matter of Flume were regarded by most Eu ropean diplomatists, and especially by the Italians, as part of a political game,, until today, and even now many old scnool diplomatists seem unable to comprehend what has hap pened. A member of the Italian delegation said that the delegates would not leave Paris tonight. He did not know what action might be taken tomor row. Premier Orlando, Foreign Minister Sonnlno and Salvatore Barsilai, An tonio Salandra and Marquis Salvago Kaggi, the other Italian delgates have been in conference at their head quarters examining the situation ere ated by the President's statement. In his statement President Wilson explaining his position on the Adriat ic question declares that Flume can lint become a part of Italy. The President points out that every condition concerning the Adriatic set t lenient has been changed since Italy entered the war upon the promises of the pact of London, the Austro-Hun ! carian empire having disappeared. He notes that new stales have been .' created from which Fin me Is the nat 1 i. ml outlet to the sea. ? The President also contends that . the strategic necessity pleaded in be j half of Italy's claim to the Dalmatian A islands no longer prevails, as the A us i tr:an naval menace has ceased to ex- i isf . I When Premier Orlando received ' President Wilson's statement at ' o'clock this afternoon, he immediate ly called a full meeting of the Italian delegation. Premier Lloyd George Wednesday was attemuting to reconcile the ou T posing viewpoints and trying to urge the Italian premier to remain longer In Paris. It is becoming more and more evi dent that the dogged Insistence of the Italian delegation in regard to ; Fiume Is due to the international sit t uation In Italy and the fear of Premi- er Orlando lest his government be J overthrown If he returns "empty j hsfnded" front Paris. As a matter or fact, he faces imminent danger, In '. any case, of being eliminated by the i pressure of unsatisfied irredentists on the one hand and the radical, almost i bolshevlsts, labor elements on the 1 other. , AMERICANS IN PARIS AUK SHINNED BY THE FHKXCH Hot Resentment Caused by Choice of lieneva ns Capital of League of Na tions Belgium I'rges Claim of Brussels Swiss People Pleased. Paris, Friday, April 18 Bitter crit icism has been aroused in French and Belgian quarters over selecting Gene va as the capital of the league of na tions. The fact that President Wil ton' speech in behalf of peneva was wholly responsible for the choosing of the Swiss City as against Brussels lis geatly resented. "You will not dare to choose a city a the capital of the league of nations which incarnates the enmity between r am a l t v wtilnh hffa hpPn rwr. I , H V . . J " ..... .. .. l - . vm. a fed, doubtless, but which makes a re conciliation between the people of Europe more distantly by the very wrongs it has, suffered." President Wilson Is reported to have said to the delegates in arguing against the choice of Brussels. Paul Hymans, Belgian minister of foreign affairs, particularly resented i the fact that the sub-committee de lUberatlng upon the choice of the seat of the league never discussed the of per made by Burgomaster Max of IlSrussels of the Egmont palace. ' "Had London, Paris, Rome or Washington bocn considered," said M. Ifynians, "v.c ,.euld have withdrawn with good grace. But when a small city was selected we feel that it is Bel si u iu's right from a material and sen Omental point of view that Brussels should have been chosen. "Had Zurich fought off the German hordes for i4 days, had Berne been occupied from August 20. 1914. had Geneva withstood the terrific bom bardmeut to which Antwerp was sub jected. had the Swiss army battled tor tour years along the Rhine as the Belgians fought and died along the tser, then we would understand why Geneva would be chosen. France was the only one of the great powers to vote for Brussels as the seat of the league. Signor Orlan do, the Italian premier, who spoke for only two minutes, said he was bound by the decision of the subcom mi t tee. The feeling of bitterness against Americans which previously had been Indicated became more pronounced today along the boulevards and In th Chamber of Deputies Frenchmen formerly friends of Americans, who had formerly greeted them warmly shunning them. The query frequently was heard. "When is President Wll son to return home?" The decision reached by the league of notions committee in Paris to make Geneva the seat of the league has caused the llvest satisfaction in offi cial circles in Geneva. After the news was received a special session of the state council was called for this morning. If the decision of the coin mission is ratified the headquarters of the league will be established in the immediate outskirts of the city President Ador and the government as a whole declare they will do any thing to give the delegates of the world organization a worthy meeting place. TO TAKE PLACES OK MEN i French Women are Training for In diistry Two Centers Established Large numbers of women in France are being trained to occupations for merly followed by men. Two centers for traniing them as machine design ers have been established one a Paris and the other at Lyon and al ready many of them have deeveloped Into expert toolmakers. Through death or disablement over 2,000,000 men have been withdrawn from French industrial life since the beginning of the great war. Realizing the neccessity which now confronts women of all classes, not only in earn ing their loving, but also to help care for the thousand of orphans and other dependents which have been left, and knowing that from now on a great diversity or wont win open to them the French labor department Is con sidering the advisability of giving young girls, as well as boys, an apprenticeship training to enable them to determine upon the occupa tion for which their particular capac ity may fit them.

The allotment is divided among the various banks of the countv as fol lows: Bank of Marshville. 28.300; Bank of Inion, $71,550: Farmers Merchants Bank. $39,700; First Na tional Bank. $63,550; Savings, Loan t Trust Company, $18,050; Waxhaw Banking & Trust Company, $23,800; State Bank of Wingate. $5,550. Our sister county of Anson is well into the work of securing subscrip tions to cover her allotment and it is reported that Gulledge township is already "over the top" with her quo ta.

Chairman RiddJe has received sev en captured German helmets and twenty Victory Loan medals, cast from metal from captured German cannon, which will be awarded for conspicuous service in connection with the bond drive. These ate tro phies which will be highly prized. The ex-Kaiser had intended that some of his soldiers should wear the identical helmets received by Chairman Riddle in a triumphal entry into Paris. Un cle Sam threw a monkey wrench into his intentions in the form of two million Yanks and these yanks pro ceeded to take the helmets away from his soldiers and now they are going to And their way into some Union county man's possession as a reward for good work In the Victory loan. It is not yet decided what work shall entitle one to a helmet or medal but the following plans are being considered.

WALTER F. LEMMOND. Wallace Held Has Double in Picture "Alias Mike Moran." For an actor to make himself up so that he presents a striking resem biance to some motion picture star is no small achievement. If it were easy there would be different editions of all the noted screen stars applying for work every day, convinced that if they can look just like a star, they too may be stars. But each Individ ual star has some trick of personali ty, some mannerism or something all his own that no other player who doubles him has. That Is why he has attained the heights of stardom. Something different! That's what we are all after. In ''Alias iMIke Moran," a new Par amount production starring Wallace Reid, which will be shown at the Strand theatre Monday, Emory John son, who plays the part of Mike Mo ran, makes up so nearly like Mr. Reld that at a distance it Is almost impos sible to distinguish one from the oth er. In the story, Mike Moran assumes the name of Larry oung (the role played by tMr. Reid) and is drafted into the army in his stead, fooling even the war authorities. You will have to keep a sharp lookout when you view this picture, or you will he mixing up these two gentlemen Indis criminately, so nearly do they resem ble each other. The story is timely and Is woven around a strong, convincing theme, and the picture should he popular with the audiences. Ann Little plavs he leading female role nnd the rest of the supporting cast are nil frvor- itos. James Cruze directed. TEXT OF WILSON STATEMENT OX ADRIATIC QUESTION Declares That America Is Italy's Friend an Trusts Italy The Prin ciple for Which America Fought are the Rights of Peoples, and the Right or the World to IVace. Paris April 23. In issuing his of ficial statement on the Adriatic ques tion. President Wilson let it be known that he desired once again to call at tention to the fact that there were certain well-defined principles which have been accepted by the peoples of the world as the basis for a lasting peace. The United States delegation simply recalled this in order that there should be no deviation from these principles. The text of the statement follows: "In view of the capital importance of the question effected, and in order to throw all possible light upon what is involved in their statement. I hope that the following statement will con tribute to the final formation of opin ion and to a satisfactory solution: "When Italy entered the war she entered upon basis of a definite pri vate understanding with Great Brit ain and France, now known as the pact of London. CIRCUMSTANCES ALTERED "Since that time the whole face of circumstances has been altered. Many other powers, great and small, have entered the struggle, with no knowl edge of the private understanding. "The Aiistro-Hungarian empire then the enemy of Europe, and at whose eense the pact of London was to be kept in the event of victory, has gone to pieces and no longer ex ists. "Not only that, but the several parts of that empire, it is agreed now by Italy and all her associates, are to be erected into independent states and associated in a league of nations, not with those who were recently our enemies, hut with Italy herself and the powers that stood with Italy In the great war for liberty. NEW ORDER SET UP. "We are to establish their liberty as well as our own. They are to be among the smaller states whose in terests are henceforth to be safe guarded us scrupulously as the Inter ests of the most powerful states. The war was ended, moreover, by proposing to Germany an armistice and peace which should be founded on certain clearly defined principles which set(up a new order of right and Juntica. " "Upon these principles the peace with Germany has been conceived not only but formulated. Upon those principles it will be executed. We cannot nsk the great body of powers to propose and effect peace with Aus tria and establish a new basis of inde pendence and right In the states which originally constituted the Atis-ifo-IiiiMgarian empire and the states of the Balkan group on principles of another kind. We must apply the same principles of the settlement of Europe in those quarters that we have applied in the peace with Germany FIUME MUST BE OPEN "It was upon the explicit avowal of those principles that the initiative for pence was taken. It is upon them that tile whole structure of peace must rest. "If those principles are to be ad hered to, Fiume must serve as the outlet of the commerce, not of Italv, but of the land to the north and northeast of that port; Hungary, Bo heiuia, Rumania, and the states of new J-.i go-Slav group. To assign Flump to Italy would be to create the feeling that we have deliberately put the port upon which all these coun tries chiefly depend for their access to the Mediterranean In the hands of a power which It did not form an in tegral part and whose sovereignty, If set up there, must inevitably seem foreign, not domestic or identified with the commercial and industrial life ol the regions which the port must serve. It is for that reason, no doubt, i hat Flume was not included In the pact of London, but there defi nitely assigned to the Croatians. "And the reason why the line of the pact of London swept about many of the islands of the eastern coast of the Adriatic and around the portion of the Dalmatian coast which lies most open to that sea was not only that here and there on those islands, and here and there on that coast, there ate bodies of people of Italian blood and connection, but also, and no doubt chiefly, because It was felt that is was neccessary for Italy to have a foothold amidst the channels of the eastern Adriatic in order that she might make her own coasts safe against the naval aggression of Aus- tria-Httngary, NO AUSTRIA-HUNGARY NOW "But Austria-Hungary no longer exists. It is proposed that the fortifi cations which the Austrian govern ment constructed there shall be razed and permanently detroyed. "It Is part also of the new plan of European order, which centers In the league of nations, that the new states of armaments, which puts aggression out of the question. There can be no fear of the unfair treatment of groups of Italian people there, because ade quate guarantees will be given, under nternational treatment of all racial or national minorities. "In brief, every question associated with this settlement wears a new as pect a new aspect given it by the very history for right for which Italy has made the snpreme sacrifice of blood and treasure. Italy, along with he four other gtcat powers, has be come one of the chief trustees of the new order which she has played so honorable a part in establishing. FRONT IS RESTORED. "And on the north and northeast her natural frontiers are completely restored, along the whole sweep of the Alps from northeast to southeast to the very end of the Istrian penin sula, including all the great water sheds within which Triest and Pole lie, and all the fair regions whose face nature has turned tiowards the great peninsula upon which the his toric life of the Latin people has been worked out through centuries of fa mous story ever since Rome was first set upon her seven hills. "Her ancient unity is restored. Her lines are extended to the great walls which are natural defense. It is with in her choice to be surrounded by friends: to exhibit in the newly liber ated people across the Adriatic that noblest quality of greatest, magna nimity, friendly generosity, the pref erence of Justice over interest. "The nations associated with her, the nations that know nothing of the past of Loudon, or of any other spe cial understanding that lies at the beginning of the great struggle, and who have made their supreme sacri fice also In the interest, not of na tional advantage or defense, but of the settled peace of the world, are now united with her older associates in urging her to assume a leadership which can not be mistaken in the new order of Europe. AMERICA ITALY'S FRIEND "America Is Italy's friend. Her people are drawn, millions strong, from Italy's own fair country sides. She is linked in Mood, as well as in affection, with the Italian people. Such ties can never be broken. And America was privileged, by the gen erous commission of her associates in the war, to initiate the peace we are about to consummate to initiate it upon the terms which she had her self formulated and In which I was her spokesman. 'The compulsion is upon her to square every decision she takes a part in with those principles. She can do nothing else. She trusts Italy, and in her trust believes that Italy will ask nothing of her that cannot be made unmistakably consistent with those sacred obligations. "The Interests are not in question, but the rights of peoples, of states new and old, of liberated peoples and peoples whose rulers have never ac counted them worthy of a right; above all, the right of the world to peace and to such settlement of In terest as shall make peace secure. "These, and these only, are the principles for which America has fought. These, and these only, are the principles upon which she can consent to make peace. Only upon these principles, she hopes and be lieves, will the people of Italy ask her to make peace." Body Found. ( Pageland Journal. ) The remains of Nathaniel Smith were found last Friday. April ISth, near K. C. Johnson's. He is sup posed to have been killed about March 22nd on the plantation of Dr. A. A. Mc.Maniis. near McBee. The house In which he Is supposed to have been killed was burned a few days after the killing. The body was found on the banks of Black Creek. The heud was mangled. Two negroes, Rena McFarland, a woman, and Char lie Benton, have been arrested and are now in jail at Chesterfield. The woman says on he night of the kill ing that Smith left her house and that in about ten minutes was fol lowed by Benton. This was the last seen of Smith until the body was found. The theory is that Smith was killed by the man and woman men tioned and that his body was thrown in the creek, where after a while it was washed ashore. A Card From Mr. M. H. Yuinlle. To the Editor of The Journal: I wish, through your paper, to again express my appreciation to those who voted for me in last Sat urday's primary, and to appeal for support, where same can be conscien tiously given, in the primary tomor row. I feel that I utn qualified by sev eral years' residence and a thorough acquaintance with the people and the needs of the people in Ward 1 to rep resent that ward on the Board of Al dermen. I also feel that I am suffi ciently familiar with the people and needs of the people south of the rail road, as well as in Ward 1, to render honest service to the city as a whole and to prevent development of any factional differences. In the hope of assisting in a pro gram of such harmonious develop ment as may be within the means of the city, I am soliciting nomination in tomorrow's primary. Respectfully. MARK B. YANDLE.

Richards was Awarded Distin guished Service Cross Miss Little a Red Cross Nurse. Talks by Lt. Richards, who wears the distinguished service cross for conspicuous bravery in the battle of the Argon ne, by Miss Little, who saw service as a Red Cross nurse in France, and by Mr. W. L. Stanley, as sistant to the president of the Sea board Air Line Railway, composed the program of the first meeting held here in the interest of the Vic tory Liberty Loan. A fair-sized aud ience gathered on the court house lawn Wednesday evening at eight o'clock to hear the speakers. Lt. Richards was in charge of a detachment of 60 men assigned to cross a stream and capture a bridge head from the Hun in the battle of the Argonne. The enemy permitted the detachment to cross the stream and gain the opposite bank and then suddenly opened fire from machine guns in ambush. Dividing his de tachment into three squads Lt. Rich ards gave each a German machine gun as an objective. The men charg ed the guns but the fire was so great that most of them were either killed or wounded before their objective was reach'. d. but reach it they did. Of one squr.d every man was killed but the corporal before the machine gun nest was reached. Alone and in the face of a leaden hail this corporal continued the advance. He had gain ed the entrance to the place where the gun was in hiding when a bullet struck him and he fell dead. When Lt. Richards' detachment retired across the river there were only six men left. In the battle the lieutenant had his elbow shot away. He was till carrying the ami in a sling when he appeared before the Monroe audience. Lt. Richards said that the thing that most impressed him during his stay in France was the spirit of sac rifice of the American soldier. When the boys went over, he declared, there was some fear that they might fall as soldiers. He told his audience that it required only a little action to quiet this fear and win for the sold ier undying fame. Miss Little, who served as a Red Cross nurse in one of the hospitals In France, in a modest manner related her experiences. She told how that a nurse, over here thought she vat worked to death if she had six pa tients to care for, while over there the nurses sometimes had as many as three hundred. Miss Little said that In one instance just before an Important battle the hospital was greatly enlarged with the expectation of having to care for a great number of wounded and several doctors were added to the staff. But the number of nurses was not increased, she said. She described as horrible the condi tion of some of the wounded brought to the hospital for treatment. Mr. W. L. Stanly, assistant to t.ie president of the Seaboard, called at tention to a few benefits which Amer ica had received us a result of the war. Some of them were: Militarism Is banished from the earth; the rub bing of elbows of the son of the mil lionaire and the son of the laborer while wearing the khaki will cause a better feeling between capital and la bor; attention has been called to the possibilities of the South; when the Hindenburg linp was broken the Ma son and Dixon line was erased. He deplored the fact that criticisms had been heard because of the amount of money spent the war. It meant the saving of American lives, and what do we care for a paltry million dollars If the life of some boy In khaki has been saved, he wanted to know, Mr. Stanley came to Monroe prima rily to address the employees of the Seaboard. He explained how his com pany had completed arrangements whereby it was possible for the em ployees to purchase bonds and pay for them in ten monthly installments. He appealed to the Seaboard men to show their loyalty by their purchase of Victory Liberty Bonds. He ad vanced the purchase of bonds as a means of striking bolshevism. The Elizabeth Barret Browning Literary Society held Its regular weekly meeting in the auditorium of the High School April 18. The fol lowing Easter program was carried out: Reading, "Origin of Easter." Christine Gordon; Reading, "Expla nation of the Passion Play," Caroline Coble; Easter poem, Jessie Harper Brown; original Easter story, Lois Laney. The next meeting will be held this afternoon. Marines Lost Heavily at Chateau- Thierry Of the 8,000 officers and men com posing the marine brigade when it and other units of the Second division were into the fighting near Chateau Thierry last June to stop the German thrust at Paris, 126 officers and 5 -073 men were either killed or wound ed before the brigade was relieved at the end of the month. While In this action the marines took Lucy Lebo- ege, climbed up Bellau Wood and fin ally captured the important town of UoiirBeehPs. In disclosing these casualties Maior General Barnett, commandant of the marine corps, said published state ments from army officers tht the marines were not in the fighting at Chateau Thierry were misleading. If "very man who "huts in" got what he doservos. he would poon h;.vo a plenty. I. p. ....... . .... . . . -I
