An appeal for Albanian independence was cabled today to Premier Clemenceau and Secretary of State Lansing, in Paris, by delegates representing seventy-two Albanian organizations in America. The message was as follows:

"Americans of Albanian descent and Albanian residents of Illinois, natives of Kossova and Chameria, respectfully appeal to Your Excellency for independence and territorial integrity for Albania, including the provinces of Kossova and Chameria, in accordance with the noble principles enunciated by President Wilson and the Allied Powers."
