AUSTRIANS BLAME COUNT
.TISZA FOR CAUSING WAR
Rabbi Mayer Kopstein of New York
Gives His Experiences as
Refugee in Vienna

NEW YORK. August 25.-That it was
Count Tisza and not the Emperor Franz
Joseph who is held responsible by the
Austrians for the European war is the
declaration made last night by Rabbi
Mayer Kopstein to his congregation at
Temple Adath Israel here while telling
of his experiences as an American refu-
gee in Vienna when Austria declared war
on Servia. Rabbi Kopstein returned on
the Noordam yesterday.
Il went to bed comfortably one night
in Vienna" he said, with plenty of re-
sources at my command. On every lip
that night was the name of Count Tisza.
The people knew Informally that it was
he who had written the ultimatum to
Servia, and it. was in the air that Ger
many could be counted upon to leap to
Austria's aid. and that Russia would
back up Servia.''
The next morning Rabbi Kopstein said
he was taken for spy, the people being
suspicious of every stranger. He took
train for Germany, but on his arrival
in Berlin he found conditions there
worse than in Vienna. In Berlin he also
was charged with being a spy, but al
ways obtained his release from mobs
and the police by showing his American
passports.
