PARIS, April 30.—President on late last night issued a state- ment dealing with the memorandum sent by himself to the Italian delega- tion on April 14.

I believe that it will be generally agreed that the fortifications which the of London can ithin boundaries of all circumstances of Austrian government established upon the islands near the eastern shore of the Adriatic should be permanently dispensed with under an internat- rmament, which is to be arranged under the ional guarantee and that dii League of Nations, should limit the states on the eastern coast of the New York” on the | cannot hear, | tricks that crooks try to play on the: of lower living costs from yester-| tinue peace is impossible day’s drop of 10 cents in corn and! a generally lower tone of the grain {market went glimmering today | when the market stiffened.
