Will Not Return to Sign Treaty. Paris, April 30—Ambassador Page telegraphed from Rome that he had gathered from Premier Orlando in a long• conference Monday that the Pre mier did not intend to return to Paris for the signing of the peace treaty. The Premier expressed re'gret that the time was so short before the arrival of the Germans. This was only one of the disturbing complications presented by the Italian situation as the time approaches for the delivery of the peace treaty to tne Germans. Orlando Fears Revolt. The Italian Premw, I lie telegram from Ambassador Page added, felt that his action either way would have ser olus consequences, but it was prefer able to have trouble from without Italy rather than from within Italy, because the present state of public feeling In Italy would not justify the signing of a treaty which did not in clude Italian aspirations. Ambassador Page said he had taken steps to have the Italian authorities suppress manifestations directed against President Wilson. The ambassador said he thought the situation had been aggravated by Italian newspaper criticism based on a wrong interpellation of President Wilson's attitude, and added that all thosS interested.In preserving good re lations between the two countries should do their best to prevent such disturbing factors from having play.

K. Entente Nations Plan to Proceed to Make Peace With Germany. WEEKS TO ELAPSE BEFORE APPROVAL Germans Expected to Requeti Two Weeks Time in Order to Lay Docu ment Before Government at Weimar and Additional Week For Discussion —Teutons Jockeying for Poa tion— Noske's Plea Combined With Threat. [By Associated Press.] Paris, April 30.—It is planned in peaef* circles to go ahead with the treaty-of poace without regard to any actloTi by Italy as it is considered probable the Italian delegation will not return, certainly not within the present week. The delivery of the treaty and the first exchange with the Germans therefore will occur without the parti cipation of Italy and it is said in American quarters that this procedure will go forward steadily up till the signing of the treaty. The lirst read ing with the Germans probably will occur Friday afternoon or Saturday when the pact will be presented. A day or twb will be given for ques tions concerning interpretations of dif ferent phases of the convention with out, however, involving a prolonged discussion. The French view is that the Germans may ask for two weeks delay to permit them to return to Weimar, with an additional week for discussing points presented after their return from the temporary German capital. This is a matter of conjecture, however, as there is no precise in formation as to Germany's intentions. Reports from Berlin reaching the American delegation are somewhat contradictory concerning Germany's purposes as some reports indicate that an early signing of the treaty is prob able, while others say that it is doubt ful whether the pact jrill be signed at all. These reports, coining from dlC* ferent sources. Indicate a laclr of con •. certed attitude as to the treaty and show' there Is disposition to leave the decision largely with the German plenipotentiaries who are now at Ver sailles. Germans Jockey For Positiom. [By Associated Press.] Berlin, April 29.—Minister of De fense Noskc today in the qouthc of an interview referred to the necessity of defending Germany's eastern frontiers. Xoske said "the statement of David Lloyd-George, the British prime min ister, that Germany was hardly in a position to assemble 80,000' men for the maintenance of order unfortunate ly was true. Noske said he considered that the bolshevlkl danger to Germany has ben militarily overcome. "We have done everything," No.»kc concludedv '*to maintain order In Ger many and construct a law-abiding and ordere'd state, thus creating the foundation for peace, tout all our work, of course, would be in vain if an economic crisis or interruption of com municatiofi -brought collapse at Iho eleventh hour if the entente, by setting up impossible conditions, destroyed all our work."

Washington, April 30—Surface indi cations point strongly to the ratifica tion of the league of nations covennnt by the senate* The senate, however, may amend the covenant or frame a separate declu ration qualifying its approval of the pact, in which event ratification will be a certainty. But even if all attempts to amend or qualify adhesion to the covenant should be defeated it appears probable that the treaty-will be ratified by more than the requisite two-thirds majority. Advocates ot the reviaod covenant are predicting that not more than fif teen votes will be cast against it. with all senators tpretutnt and voting this .would mean «efgaty-oae votes in favor of the league plan, or seventeen votes more than two-thirds of tne member ship. Find Four Alleged Faults. Opponents of the covenant are mak ing. no predictions, but are ccnter^g their fire upon four parts of the re vised draft which they will seek to re move by amendments or separate reso lutions qualifying American adhesion tQ the treaty. These objections arc: 1. That article 21 recognizing the Monroe doctrine- is inadequate. i. That domestic questions such as exclusion of immigrants on radical grounds are not wholly exempted from the jurisdiction of the ledfeue. 3. That article 10, guaranteeing the territorial intregrity of members of the league fropi external aggression, would put the world, in a straight-jacket, 4. That'' arti'clc 11 confers on the league a dangerous power to deal with any "threat of war, whether imme diately affecting any of the members of the league or not." In as much as only a majority is necessary to adopt an amendment or qualifying resolution opponents of the revised league plan aro confident that some if not all of these changcs can be effected.
