PRICE THREE CENT ORLNDO ANSWER SAYS NOTHING OF QUITTING PARLEi 0 DECLARES PRESIDENT TRYING T4 MBITTER ITALIANS AGAINST GOVERNMENT WILSON REBUKED FOR BRTEACH OF DIPLOMACY Rome Bases ClaIm on 14 Points States Minister in Reply to U. S. Executive (By Associated Press) Paris, April 24. - The statement is sued by Premier Orlando today says nothing of, the intention of the Ital ians to quit the peace conference. I merely states Italy's case concernin Fiume and the Dalmatian coast an does not appear in the form of an ul- timatum. Premier Orlando declares that Pres ident Wilson's proclamation is an at- tempt to place the government in op- position to the people "He is treating the Italians as i they were a barbarous people withou a democratic government," stated Premier Orlando. Premier Rebukes President The premier rebukes the Presiden for addressing himself to the Italian people over the head of the Italian government, and says he never con- sidered America bound by the Treaty of London, but that Italy's case is bas- ed on right- and justice. The premier.says he has never de- nied the Pact of London did not ap- ply to Fiume, but the Italian claim was based on the principles of Pres- ident Wilson's 14 points. Publication Angers Italians The premier and other members of the Italian delegation are much more angry over President Wilson's world- wide publication of his position on the Adriatic question than over his oppo- sition to the claims and the fact that' diplomatic procedure has been violat- ed. The alleged violation consists in what is termed an insult offered to the Italian government because the President made his position known to the Italian people over the head of the peace delegation. -- Buy Victory Bonds -- WOMEN MEET TO DISCUSS NEW SOCIAL REFORMS Social Service for women was the special topic for discussion at the year's last Vocational Conference, held yesterday afternoon in Barbour gym- nasium under the auspices of the Women's League and the Y. W. C. A. Miss Melita Hutzel of the Girls' Protective league of Deroit described the work of that organization, em- phasizing especially the psychological clinics. The subject of industrial education was discussed by Miss Mertland. At present the federal government furn- ishes the State of Michigan a certain sum of money for this work provid- ing the state itself furnishes an equal amount. The greatest factor of this work, the purpose of which is to pro- mote the happiness of men and wom- en in Industry, is occupational analy- sis, which consists in testing all workers for skill, education, and the physical requirements for their indi- vidual positions. Miss Mertland stat- ed that the one requirement for it is the overcoming of social prejudices. Dr. W. G. Norton, who is at the head of the Community Centers of De- troit, gave a general summary and de- scription of all the branches of service into which social work has developed in that city. There are nine of these different branches and each has its special organization and corps of workers. Dr. Norton also emphasized the dearth of workers existing at pres ent. Women who are interested in the work elsewhere should write either to the School of Civics and Philan- thropy in Chicago or to the National Social Workers' exchange in New York City. -Buy Victory Bonds - RED CROSS CLOTHING DRIVF ENDED; MARK NOT REA ChED Although not up to the quota set for this city a large amount of dis- carded clothing was collected in the recent drive for wearing apparel to be sent abroad to war sufferers.

MORTAROARD TO HOLD CONVENTION CAMPUS SALES DECLINE TO $2,500 THURSDAY City Campaign Closed But Campus Has One More Day to Raise Hoped For Total "Buy Victory bonds." Michigan failed to do this and to uphold their record of the first two days of the fifth Liberty Loan drive when subscriptions to the amount of only $2,500 were taken Thursday. With the end of the campaign Friday, every effort is being expended by the general committee to make the last day the biggest of thee drive. The total subscriptions taken -so far total $37,550 which is below the amount the committee expected to raise. In consequence of this the commit- tee urges the class presidents to see that their workers are busy urging people to buy bonds. For the last time the student committee headquarters in the registrar's office will be open at 9' o'clock Friday morning, and at 5 o'clock the opportunity to buy bonds here will be gone. Special Effort Friday Commenting upon the results of the third day of the drive Ralph. Gault, '21L, chairman of the general commit- tee, said, "In the last day of the drive, we are going to endeavor to raise a sum of which Michigan may be justly proud. The amount of bonds sold Thursday was a disappointment, but it will not discourage us from bigger efforts in our final attempt Friday.' Thursday marked the close of the city volunteer campaign when the banks volunteered to take the part of Ann Arbor's quota, then unsubscrib- ed. This does not mean that the cit- izens of Ann Arbor will not have the opportunity to invest their money in bonds, for they may still do so at the banks. University Campaign Not Over The closing of the city campaign did not affect the University camaign in mny way except that sone students thought the campaign in the Univer- sity was through, which is not so. This is not the case, for the cam- paign will not end until Friday night, and during the remaining day the ef- forts to raise a larger sum will be unremitting. "They're watching Michigan's rec- ord." S -- Buy Victory Bonds - VALUABLEAND ANCIENT RUGS SHOWN AT UNION National Women's Honor Society to Begin Biennial Meeting Tonight BANQUET ARRANGED FOR THIS- EVENING BY THIS CHAPTER With Michigan chapter as hostess, the first biennial convention of Mor- tarboard, national honorary society for senior women, will begin at 6:30 Friday night with a banquet in the Michigan Union. Arrangements have been made for 48 people, including the 20 active members, 10 visiting dele- gates, and 18 alumnae members from Detroit and Ann Arbor. National Organization The local chapter was established in the University in 1906. In June, 1918, it sent representatives to a convention at Swarthmore college, Pennsylvania, and in their adoption of the present charter, occurred the first step toward the nationalization of the society. In place of a Greek letter name, Motor- board, the title of the Michigan chap- ter, was adopted, and the membership requirements, scholarship, leadership, and personality, were made nationally uniform. That the vitality of the or- ganization is assured for the future, is evident in the number of petitions to be presented at the convention here. Program Announced The program for tonight's banquet is as follows:. Toastmaster, Groeso Gaines, '19; Response, Huldah Bancroft, '15; His- tory of National Mortarboard, Emily Loman, '19; Swarthmore college chap- ter, Miss Isabel Myers; Ohio State university chapter, Miss Anna Cor- nell; University of Illinois chapter, Miss Marie Croisen; Cornell univer- sity chapter, Miss Helen Spalding; -University of Minnesota, Miss Ada Brown; University of Missouri, Miss Mary Logan. -Buy Victory Bonds "Y" WILL OPEN CAMPAIGN TO INTEREST HIGH SCHOOL MEN To create a wider interest in the University, and tobring to the high school men of the state an idea of what the institution stands for, the University Y. M. C. A. will open a campaign next week for the estab- lishment of sectional clubs. Efforts will be made to secure ac- tive organizations of the men 'from the various towns. Notice will be sent out to these men by the "Y," which will take charge of the meetings until definite arrangements can be made. Oriental rugs, amounting in' value to nearly half a million dollars, are being shown under the auspices of the Ann Arbor Art association April. 24, 25, and 26 in the new Union. This collection is said to be the largest of any now in existence due to scarcity of rugs as a result of the war. In many of the oriental coun- tries, particularly Armenia, where rug- weaving has been for centuries one of the major arts, that industry is vir- tually destroyed. By far the most valuable rug in. the colection was a Saracenic masterpiece from the Charles Yerkes collection. A very old and rare Armenian specimen worth $10,000 was also on exhibit. This is a large rug with the Armenian coat-of-arms, sometimes called a sun- burst, woven twice in the design. Prayer rugs, whose triangular de- sign of pattern dlistinguishes them from any other type of oriental rug, were shown. A price is set on all these specimens so that they may be purchased by any- one desiring to take advantage of this unusual opportunity.
