Wilson Impresses Italian Of
ficials With Earnest Desire
to See Justice Done and
Thus Secures Their Aid.
BY DAVID IsVWRENCE
The New, Scimitar's Special Corre
spondent. (Special cable dispatch to The Mem
phis News Scimitar.)
PARIS, l"ec. "Ji PreBlil.nl Wilson
has Impressed lremler Orlando and
Heron Sonnlno. the foreign minister of
ltalv, with his earnest desire to see
thai Justice Is done in the settlement
of all problems concerned with peace,
and one of the result of his confer
ence wRh them is a feeling- of confi
dence that Italy will work very cloaa
lv with the r tilted Stales to see that
the 14 points are realized questions
of territory were not discussed at the
meeting, but only general principles
were mentioned to which both the Ital
ian premier and Haron Sonnlno ex
pressed their adherence.
it is evident Jhai Mr. Wilson Is en
deavoring to create an ei a of good
feeling among statesmen upon Wltoin
the responsibility for negotiations will
rest. It is alreadv noticeable as a re
sult of hie conferences with Premier
rienienceau thai In quarters where a
week ago apprehension and potential
hostility existed, the feeling Is now one
of onrdlalltv and sympathy for the
American point of view. It would not
be surprising if Premier Clemen, can
and Mr Wilson developed a close
friendship enabling thom to examine
all problems In a spirit of mutual con
fidence Mr. Wilsons references to Premier
Lloyd (leorfe in making, his visit 10
England, is a courtesy that ought to
Impress British statesmen with the de
sire of the president ti get in closer
contact with them, ho that English
speaking peoples may gle then early
support to the fundamentals of s last
ing peace Tho conference of Mr. Wil
son with Premier Orlando and Baron
Sonnlno was attended by t'ount Maecht
di Cellare, li.illan ambassador to Amer
ica, who acted as interpreter. The idea
of a league of nations was discussed
and generally the principles which
ought to govern in the treatment of
oppressed nationalities and struggling
raroj In central Kurone. The Italians
left greatly impressed with the sense
of Justice " manifested by Mr. Wilson,
and while they projected a detailed so
lution ol the much mooted Italian fron
tier, Italian public opinion Is so strong
ly In Mr. Wilsons favor that whatever
program he proposes Is likely to be
supported by the Italian populace.
Winning Confidence.
The Italians claim that the treaties
of London drew a line which was the
result of a compromise with ltitsslr,,
whnh then represented the Slavic in
terests, and was made wnn me ex
pectation thai some dav there would
be a revolt against the Hapsburga
which would require an outlet to lbs
sea for the Jugo-Slavs The Italians
declare that the latter have sufficient
,uil let to the Adriatic In Fiums nnd
that giving Flume, which is historically
an Italian city, was a concession marie
in the interest of Mr. W ilson's principle
Of giving access to the sea to small
nations Knghinri and l-Vance are both
pledged to give Italy the line In ques
tion, and there is little likelihood that
Mr Wilson will insisi on much change,
though Italians say they are willing to
discuss with him a rectification of the
frontier and leave it to him to recon
cile the conflicting aspirations of the
Jugo-Slavs and Italy
Tins is bill another evidence of the
Immense power of President Wilson as
an arbiter, due to the fact that ho has
Impressed the musses with liis sense of
justice. The Italian government was
very anxious to cement friendly rela -lions
with America and will undoubtedly
follow the American program Willi re
spect to freedom of the seas and a
league of nations. The Italians are
eager to have Mr. Wilson visit iheir
Country. His plans nre somewhal dis
arranged owing to tho promised visit
lo Kngland at the end of this month,
hul he is likely to go to Home after
ward, and so utilise the next fort nigh I
in visits of courtesy.
The prealdenl had believed it possi
ble to get down to business first and
ili, a little sight seeing later, but the
unreadiness of the lingllsh lo receive
him because of the electoral campaign
in which the otes will nol he counted
until Dec. 2Si has caused him i"
change his plans Thus far there has
been progress toward making peace
tangibly secure, but it can be said
that Mr Wilson's efforts to impress
European statesmen that his position
is not one of dictation, is succeeding in
winning ihelr confidence and co-operation
It rttav be said that the Informal
conferences have begun auspiciously,
and in a mood that means thai the
United states and the allies are deter
mined 10 reach an sgraamenl among
themselves by practical compromises
so Hint when Oermany is admitted i"
the conferences no doubt will exist
anywhere as to the terms which ought
to be Imposed in order to guar. mice a
lasting peace.
