back the Premier in his determination
that the sword is not to be sheathed
Ill til Germany Is crushed. The feeling
against Germany is very bitter, but that
towards Austria is rather contemptuous
than otherwise. 1t is generally felt that
the dual monarchy will quit hostilities
as soon as possible and it is even now
currently rumored that the Austrian
Government have warned the Germans
that unless they received sufficient sup
port to enable them to resist the Rus
sian advance. they would open negota-
tions for peace with the Allies.
1t cannot be said whether there is any
truth in the suggestion. but IL is at least
not improbable. The war has already
shaken the Austro- Hungarian Empire
to its foundations. and a few more re-
verses may lead to its overthrow. 1t is,
indeed. quite on the cards that Hungary
and Bohemia may proclaim their inde
pendence of the Hapsburg monarchy.
Whether. even IL Austria sued for
separate peace, the Allies would grant
1t IL Is difficult to say. 1t must never
be forgotten that in any arrangements
regarding the future OF the dual mon
archy Servia will claim reward for
her share of the fighting and that Italy
Will insist upon compensation for her
judicious neutrality.
