The other Allies had given the same promise at the Ver sailles conference, and the greatest of all, America, through the mouth of her President, had set forth Poland's Inde pendence, absolute and complete by ac cess to the sea, as one of the prime objects of the war she was waging so unselfishly.

The sons of the race that had held Europe's frontier against the Turks and smashed the barbarous Order of Teu tonic Knights In one of the bloodiest battles ot history, he said, would not be deaf to tho call.

Is not showing sufllcient deference to Germany to please the German press. The latter trouble began with an in terview which the German Vice Chan J cellor Von Payer, gave regarding the extending and strengthening of the alli ance between Germany and the Central I'mpires He drew a pk turc of the allied countries as "ne great trade region, with common Interests " and foreshadowed the falling away ot customs barriers and an extensive and long date economic agreement. All this alarmed Hungary It sounded In Magyar cars like Gcrmanlzatlon, a joke under which Hungary's ruling caste has no desire to throw itself or Hun gary: o that countrj's' press immedi ately began to point out her claims to look after herself regarding her own Interests, especially In promoting against all comers her own Industrie and In holding and increasing her trade mar kets. Oppoite Teutonic Terms The matter was discussed in parlia ment Count Michael Karolji, leader of the Independent pirty, came out strongly against strengthening tho alliance with Germany.

The German Vice Chancellor was warned that "he must revise his terms If ho is seriously regarding an alliance with Hungary " Prime Minister Wekerle said there could bo no strengthened alliance which prevented Hungary from making and stiengthening alliances with other coun tries' as well Tlerlln Aluo THMnrbrd Berlin political and diplomatic circles naturally are very perturbed by this independent attitude of Hungary and the. pi ess comment is couched both in sorrow anil anger The Tagllsche RundFchaii, for Instance refers to the "diseased fear" of Hun gary for closer relations with Germany, and the matter In certainly not smoothed over by Von Paver's rejoinder that he spoke in a theoretic and academic sense Nor Is the contretemps a happy augury for tho negotations regarding tho future terms of alliance which begin at an early date.

Italian Headquarters, June 23. "We expect jou to put Italy hors du combat." said Emperor William to Charles In their famous meeting after the publication of the letter to Prince Slxtus. .when the Kaiser had called the Hapsburg monarch to Canossa. This utterance was more a threat than an expresslon-of trust ln,hls ally. Tho Austrian were still smarting under the "humiliation of having had to beseech help from Germany In the pre vious offensive of October. Therefore, the Emneror of the dual monarchy In structed General Boroevlo to bring Italy to her knees, whatever the cost.

Gfrorge Barthejme, former Washington correspondent of the Cologne Gazetta who has written countless articles on "America In that paper, as well ns given numerous lectures, Is still drawing' on his -imagination and so-called knowledge of-. American politics. The longer he stays away from America the more he appears to know what In going on In that far-away country, nnd, what Is more, the Germans believe every word as gospel truth. This time. In Berlin, Barthelme has given a lecture on the United States In wartime, and once again enumerated the reasons for which he asserted that America declared war. He found new reasons each time. This time it was English Influepce In Government -circles anti on icreign policy, and he dwelt on the assertion that among the twenty eight Presidents only ono non-English name Is to bo found Roosevelt and among the 400 cabinet members only two Germans Carl Schurz and George von Lengerke Meyr. ' There vvas even a British subject at tho American Embassy In Berlin, Barth elme said, Rnd, owing to the use of the English languago (Barthelme does not say what language Americans ought to speak), Americans see everything through English eyes. He spoke of tlie scandal relating to shipbuilding and air planes, and the alleged Incapacity of onicers, and asked, "What have we to fear, then, from America?" Barthelme reminded the people of General Wood's speech. In which he ex plained that America was unprepared, and even If she had enough men, 10, 000,000 tons of shipping would be needed to. send them to Europe.
