FORMER AMBASSADOR TO RUS
STA AND TURKEY DISCUSS
I.S CONFLICT.

LITCHFIELD. Conn. Aug. Will
liam w Rockhill who has served as
United states ambassador TO Russia
and Turkey, and who loft Constant!-
nople last November. said today:
WAR between Austria and Servla Is
but a natural result OF the situation
looking to the combination Of Slav
elements into a kingdom OF their own.
II is a racial question, the develop
ment OF the creation OF natlonalities
that has been coming on FOR years.
National honor and race pride are in
VOWED.
III Austria carries her point and
erushcs the southern Slavs Il will be
hard for Russia to bear. and / doubt
IL the Slays can be kept down per-
manently. Russia Is their great pro-
tector. She has a sentimental inter-
est in them as well as a political in
terest.
The slavs in Bosnia and Herzego-
vina have been better administered
under the Austrians than they were
under the Turks. but they have not
laid aside their racial feeling. That 10
feeling that cannot be ignored
Everyone In Turkey and elsewhere
knew that the peace as arranged last
year FOR the Balkans could not DO
maintained. 1t was too unstable.
The United states sold two battle-
ships TO Greece They Will not main
tain peace They will add fuel to
the fire. They will be heard from.
Austria in the south IS not homo
genous as TO population. The racial
agiton meant the breaking down OF
the Austrian empire. which IS largely
made up OF Slays In the south
Then Austria has lost prestige IN
the last two years. Everything went
wrong FOR her in the Balkan wars.
She saw Seryia broaden. The Slavs
in the south were getting more and
more grip. The killing OF Archduko
Ferdinand and his wife was tn spark
that fired the final trouble.
Political murders are common in
the Balkans. The people are imbued
with the idea that they can always
have recourse to staying. Murder is
a method OF propaganda.
'Servia did not want war She Is
In tight place economically. The
Servians went pretty far in accepting
Austria"s terms. Italy was not desir-
ous Of getting into It. and / don't be-
lieve Germany induced Austria to take,
the step.

bitrated. II might be medlated"
