Pres is up to his old tricks has sent a NOTE to Italy,
His appeal to the Italian People caused as much of a furore as the one to the voters last fall,
Italy says they know Fiume was not in their secret treaty with other Allies But its a nice town and they hate to see it fall into bad hands,
Get all those Nations sore enough to start telling the truth about each other, We will hear something,
Italy claims Fiume because there is more Italians there than anybody else, according to that Look whod get NEW YORK
Japans claims are sorter novel "They want pay for capturing part of China one of our own Allies"
They have offered to protect Siberia if they have to stay there forever to do it,
If Japan gets all her claims China will pay more indemnities than Germany who lost the war,
Imagine Japan, Pres Wilson, and Italy, All talking at once, Good thing they cant understand each other or this Conference would never have lasted this long,
AND THEY CALL THAT A PEACE CONFERENCE,
Guess those CZECHO POLOKS have gotten their freedom, I see where they are at war.
Wish I could find a man who had read this LEAGUE OF NATIONS, And could tell which was the Assembly and which was the Council,
Thats a good clause in there "where any Allied Nation must give three months notice before it jumps onto any other Allied Nation,"
Now the Women want to send Deligates, They forget this is a Peace Conference,
See where the German Deligates to the Peace Table brought their Golf Clubs We can see now how Admiral Graysons Pupil stacks up against opposition,
See where Pres Wilson and Italy have compromised on that town down there Italy got it,
Its kinder new wrinkle in Diplomacy, The Slovaks can play with it four years till they begin to like it, And then they take it away from them,
AS I UNDERSTAND IT ITALY IS TO HAVE IT TUESDAYS AND SATURDAYS,
But they are going to build those other People (with that terrible name) A little young town just as much like this one as they can, down the river aways
Guess the reason they put a four year limit on it, Was that they figured that would about cover the existence of any of those new Nations,
The Idea over there now seems to be lets get something ready to sign up, Whether its any good or not,
See where Pres Wilson and Japan compromised on that CHOW CHOW PLACE JAPAN GETS IT,
I dont know how much money Indemnity Japan will demand from China,
You know CHINA has one of the best JAPANESE Armies in the World,
See where Pres Wilson and England compromised on Freedom of the Seas England got it,
Italy left the Conference and got what she wanted, Japan threatened to leave and got what she wanted, If Pres Wilson had left some Republican Senators would have gotten what they wanted,
Seems several Nations were like Jesse Willard they wanted to know what they were to get before they entered the Arena,
Well they finally handed Germany the Peace terms 80 thousand words only thing ever written longer than a Lafollette Speech,
