Governments Action
The decision of the government ia
abandon all race meetings during the
war except that at Newmarket does
not meet by any means with universe
approval. Quite apart from person.,
interested in racing because it is thei,
occupation or means of livelihood,
large numbers are of the opinion tina
such a drastic closing down of race
meetings not only is needless but mi
mical TO horse breeding. They point
to the fact that racing is going on a.
usual in Germany and contend that
its prohibition in England probably
will be regarded by her enemies as 4
signal of weakness.

ITALIAN PREMIER'S ADDRESS TO
CIVILIANS ON Their DUT|ESIN
the WAR; SITUATION REVIEWED

clearly showed she desired to provoke
war Under these circumstances the
German AMBASSADOR was informed Italy
latter nation found herself at war with
greSSion.
ItaIy's Early Stand
Premier Salandra asserted that on July
p and Is, 1914, the Italian government
raised in clear terms. both at Vienna and
at Berlin, the question of the cession to
Italy Of the so-called italian provinces
held by Austria. We declared said
he, that if Italy did not obtain ade-
quate compensation the Triple Alliance
would be irreparably broken. Impartian
history will say that Austria, having
found in July and in October 1918, that
Italy was hostile to aggressive intentions
against Serbia, arranged with Germany
to take Europe by surprise by con-
fronting it with an accomplished fact.
The horrible crime at Berajevo was ex-
ploded as a pretext a month after it oc-
Cured. Foreign Minister Won Berchtold
told the Duke of Avarna on July 81 last
that even if mediation were employed it
would not stop hostilities with Serbia.
Austria's Position
1T was not true as Count Tisza has
pretended, that Austria engaged herself
to respect the integrity of Serbian terri
tory. kajetan Mercy Won kapos-Mere,
then Austrian ambassador, told Marquis
San Guiliano July 80 that Austria could
not give such an engagement because she
could not foresee that, during the war.
she would not be forced against her will
to retain Serbian territory. In addition
Count Won Berchtold declared to the
Duke of Avarna on Aug. 2s last that he
was not disposed to give any undertake
ing relative to the eventual action of
Austria in case of a conflict with Ser
bia."
