Of these nine are already in

In addition to these there are
eighteen states in which a ma

prohibition sentiment predomi-

If the people in these states
who are opposed to the bquor

national amendment.

AUSTRIA-HUNGARY'S
MOTIVES EXPLAINED
Consul at Savannah Makes an Argu-
ment for His Country

Savannah News: With know
ledge Of the situation in Europe
leading up to the war that only one
in close touch with the consular
channels can secure, Ludwig E.
Busch, vice-consul in Savannah for
Austria-Hungary, yesterday in an in
terview defended the dual monarchy
in its attack upon Servia, and Ger
many in her declaration of war upon
Russia and the invasion Of Belgium.
He said:
There have been current, during
the last few days many opinions con-
corning the European war, two of
which especially show that the actu-
al conditions concerning the recent
actions of Austria-Hungary and Ger
many are not fully realized. One
of these ideas, the least charitable
of all, is expressed with the wish that
Austria, for her attacks on Servia,
be put off the map; the other, that
Germany had taken so much upon
her shoulders at this time that she
deserved to break under the load.
Cites Mexican Situation
I'm order to make the situation in
Austria understood, parallel should
be drawn between the United States
versus Mexico, and Austria versus
Servia. 1T is we'll known that the
many petty incidents of disagreeable
character which Mexico committed
against this country-borne I'M
doubtedly of the hatred accumulated
since the last Mexican war-and the
final insult of the MeXicans in moi
saluting the United States flag
forced this country to take a more
or less warlike action agains
Mexico.
Elf Mexico had had a powerful
ally at the time, it stands to reason
that the United States would at thi
moment be involved in actual war
fare The situation is decidedly sim
liar in Austria. There the hatre;
against Austria is of about fort,
years standing. Thru the treaty o
Berlin in 1878 Bosnia and HerzegO
vina, practically Servian by popula
tion, were turned over to the Aus
trian government for military an
administrative control.
In 1907, after many years of in
ternal discomfort and actual strif
against Austria, the aforementione
countries were entirely taken over b
Austria and made provinces of tina
monarchy. After this the machir
ations of Servia have become NOR
and more manifest and open. Sine

cepted the gauntlet and declared war
on Russia. Should the German En- !,
pire fall in the struggle, there is a
good likelihood that not only the /
Germans, but France and England !

ment and progress is intensely allied

Russia, in this war, has much
less to lose than what she might
gain, whereas the position of Ger
many is just the contrary. Germany
has attained practically the highest
Ipostti0n it could achieve and if this
war brushes her she will lose every
thing which a period of forty years
Iof peaceful existence has won. 1t is
IpIafn that the German Emperor,
who as a father, will send five sons
to the front, did not force this war
as the war lord, which unfriendly
criticism has often characterized him
to be. His actions have proven to

the year 1909 there occurred several
attempted and successful assassina-
tions, which in a measure can be
traced back to Servian influence. All
the perpetrators of violence have
been heroized by the Servian press,
especially the paper Fremont which
is the official organ of the officers of
1.-The SerVian army. This and other
papers of Belgrade frequently incit-
ed South Slavic youths in Austria
Hungary to assist in Vaccinations
against her.
Sometimes it was plainly stated
that the late heir apparent, Francis
Ferdinand should be considered as
the greatest opponent of the Pan
Slavic movement

Ferdinand should be considered as
the greatest opponent of the Pan
Slavic movement.
Intrigues Against Austria
'"The attacks against the late
Francis Ferdinand have been at
times so violent that upon request of
! the Austrian ambassador a Servian
paper called fSamonprowa,, was
statement. 1t is a fact also that the
tServian ambassador was not allowed
in private audience to the late heir
apparent, because it was considered
that he was one of the prime organ
izers of the FNarodna Ochrana,'
which is an organization to further
the Pan-Slavic interests.
ct is known that in each South
Slavic school there are secret associ-
ations of the students, which con-
stantly' undermine the feeling of al
legiance to Austria-Hungary All of
: these underground Vaccinations Gull
minated in the assassination of
Francis Ferdinand and the Princess
of Hohenberg, which surely should
be crime of sufficient gravity for
: Austria to demand reparation of
Servia
The nature of the ultimatum
which Austria put to Servia included
the point that Austrian authorities
should be allowed to assist in break
ing up the Pan-SlaVic organization.
This request was fatty refused, al
most indicating that the government
of Servia feared developments which
would show that, in way, itself was
implicated.
'rServia standing by itself would
have undoubtedly yielded to the re-
quest of Austria, as it would, OF
course, have had hardly any show
as against the monarchy in arms
Thus it allows certainly the conclus-
ion that Russia beforehand came tC

Germany Wanted Peace
when the true position of Russia
was recognized there was no alterna
tive for Germany but to stand faith
fully at the side of her ally, Austria
Q Hungary. She tried in every way
. conceivable to deter Russia from go
