PEACE TERMS IN

TREATY OF PEACE HANDED TO

ITALY WILL CONTROL flUME
The Belgian Crown Council Decides
To Sign Treaty, But Are Dis¬

New York.—The peace treaty for¬
mulated by the allied and associated
powers was handed to the German
delegatee at Versailles Wednesday af¬

when the Germans were to he made
cognizant of the price that once im¬

reason of this fact, there now also
seems to be good basis for the ballet
that the differences between Great
Britain, France and the United States
and Italy over Italy’s claims regard¬
ing Fiume and the Dalmatian coast

Signor Orlando, Italian premier, and
his foreign minister, Baron Sonnino,
returned to Paris from Rome, where
they have been since they quitted the

would satisfy Italian ambitions.
With the Italian question settled,
almost complete unanimity of senti¬
ment would prevail in the peace con¬
ference. The obstacle represented by
the protests of the Belgian has been,
surmounted by the Belgian crown
council having decided unanimously
to sign the treaty, it having been
pointed out by the head of the Belgi¬
an delegation that tbe document gave
honorable and satisfactory terms to
Belgium.
