WILSON'S METHODS
ANGERED 'ITALIA'N
President's Publication of'Position lie.
garded as an Insult by 'Orlando.
'Paris, April 24.-Preinler Orlando
and the other members of the fItaian
delegation apparenty are much angrier
over President Wilson's world-wide
publication of his position-on -the Ad
riatic question than over his oipposi
tion to their claims and the fact that
the diplomatic procedure has been
violated and what is termed an insult
offered to the Italian goverment be
cause the president made his position
known to the Italian people over the
head of peace delegaton.
Dicussing this contention today a
member Of- the American iece -dele
gation says: "Flume or nothing" has
been the 'Italian delegation's uinaltera
ble formula for nearly eight weeks
and their firm insistence upon the set
tlement of the Adriatic question before
an agreement on th peace terms for
ced President Wilson'to tell the world
where he stands. The atmosphere
of the conference simply had to be
cleared, and there was no other nway
for the president to clear it.
"This statement was more for the
American public than for the Italian
public and it was of such an unmis
takable character that it should not
leave any one in the dark as to the
Ameriean. Position on - secret agree
mnents".
The effort of the Europeans to in
voke their rules of diplomatic proced
urc and the conflicting statements,
clouded under obscurity have been
noted by the American delegates and
correspondents who are endeavoring
to obtain the actual facts. The pro
fessions of surprise by the Italians of
President Wilson's statement are
amazing to the correspondents, who
have positive knowledge that the state
ment was submitted to Premier Orlan
do several days before its publication
and that he sought advice about draft
ing a reply.
-Many conflicting acounts of the
events immediately preceding Signor
Orlando's announcement of his depar
ture have been ,printed in the Paris
papers, some of which -profess to quote
the 'premier. But these statements
have been disavowed by Signor Or
lando, who requested the press to a
wait an offical signed statement.
In the meantime all Paris is dis
cussing the Italian situation and in
dulging in speculation and what-would
'happen were Italy to break with the
conference and insist upon keeping
troops in Flume.
Griffitl Spectacle Coming.
TlItugh special arrangements just
completed, David Wark Griffith's tre
mendous spectacle, "Hearts of the
World" with a special symphony or
chestra, has been secured for a limited
engagement here and will be seen at
the Opera House two days, May 5th
and 6th, twice daily, 3 and 8:30 p. m.
"Hearts of the World" is the big
Grifith production on iwhich this mas
ter genius spent more than eighteen
months, and during the making of
which he was in France working un
der the auspices and with the hearty
co-operation of David Lloyd George,
Prime 'Minister of England, and other
British and French ofilcials. This,
however, does not indicate that
"Hearts of the World" is a war play,
for Mr. Grifith hia been exceptionally
anxious to have it known that this lat
est effort is a simple love story with
the recent war serving only as the
background. He describes it as "the
story of a village; an old fashioned
play with a new fashioned theme." The
unfolding of the romance takes place
in a French village prior to and dur
ing the German occupation, and all
the experiences of the French through
out those trying times are graphically
depicted as only Griffith can do it.
Those who have seen his former
triumph, "The Birth of a Nation," will
realize just what this means, for Crif
fth is a producer who masterfully
stops at nothing to accomplish his
ends.
'Some idea of the magnitude of
"Iearls of the World" may be gained
from the fact that more than one mil
lion men and women figure in the
story, as do fifty thousand horses,
squadrons of airplanes, fleets of Zep
pelins, hundreds of lumbering tanks
in action and miles of artillery.
Both the exterior and the interior
of Lloyd Georg's headquarters at No.
10 Downing Street, London, where
President Wilson took luncheon on
the second day of his visit to England,
are shown In the production, as well
as the very roads over which the Pres
ident traveled on his visit to the bat
tiellelds.
