Regret for the incident was expressed later. Italians are to decide today wheth er they will return to the conference, accoriding to advices received at Italian press headquarters. Re ports have been circulated that if the Italians return they will be headed by forlmer I'remier Luzzati, but press headquarters are certain that Or lando will resume leadership if they decide to return. American officials are confident that Orlando will be back. Considerable significance is at taclhedl to the fact that minor Italian representatives here have been sounding out Americans as to wheth er the United States would favor con ferring the mandate for Syria upon Italy if she would return and accept a comnpromise on her Adriatic claims.
