some bearing upon a possible disarma-
ment of the armies OF Europe may be dis /
missed as unworthy of serious considera-
ton. This is clearly demonstrated by the |
fact that next years Austro-Hungariau |

ton of the peace effective OF the army.
Private kilograms from st. Petersburg
say every effort is being made to induce
the car to visit Berlin. but these efforts
have SO far been without success.
