RACIAL RIGHTS UNQUEs.
Chief Demand That Austria Make
Principle Cities an 1ndepend-
ent Province.
By ]. w. II. MASON.

New York, May 22.-Negotiations
between Italy and Austria have been
terminated because Austria refused
to MAIN herself beyond repair to
serve Italy's illegitimate ambitions.
The Italian governments green book
show the irreconciliable difference
between Rome and Vienna have aris-
en- because Italy wanted to make Aus
tria practically an inland power.
Italy's chief demand has been that
Trieste, which is Austria's chief port
and Istria, which is Austria's chief
wartime province, be consolidated in
to an Independent state. This is the
point at which the negotiations have
broken.
Italy's racial right to Trieste is
unquestioned, although Austria's
agreement to make it a free city
would have subserved legitimate Ital-
ian desires and at the same time
would not have interfered with Aus
tria's use of the port for mercantile
purposes. Hungary's chief port,
Fiume, is a free city. But Italy had
no right, except the right of might
to demand that Istria be made an in
dependent state. Most of the inhab-
itants of Istria are Slavs. The Italian
minority are ambitious to control the
culture of Istria, but have been op-
posed by the Austrian government.
With Istria free state this opposi-
ton would vanish and the Italians
believe they could do as they like
with the passive Slav provincials of
the peninsula.
If Italy decides it is worth war
to secure Istria from Austria and
if Austria decides it is worth war
to keep her seaboard intact, the out
come of the hostilities cannot be pre-
dicted with any probability. The
topography of the Austro-Italian bor-
derlands will play the most import
ant part in the campaign. Noun
tains bar the northern and. western
entrances into Austria but wide
plain sweeps from Italy into Trieste
and Istria to the east and marks the
probable direction of the Italian ad-
vance. But these same plains ap-
proach northwest to the mountains
that form Austria's southern barrier
The Italian in all probability cannot
move through these frontier noun
tains into the further mountains be-
yond, but the ro-Germans might
be able to advance through their own
passes and debpuch onto the Italian
plains of Lombardy and Venetia.
Thus, while the Italian strategy calls
for an early movement toward Tries
tie and Istria, the AustrOG German Of
fensive will doubtless be southwark
over the frontier mountains into the
northern Italian plains.
Speculation on the number of op-
posing forces must be mere guess
work at present. The men available
for service in the battle lines is
matter for common calculation. But
men cannot be used as soldiers with
out equipment and it is impossible to
say how successful the Italians have
been during the past nine months in
equipping their forces. Great Britain
has been unable adequately to supply
her own troops with war munitions.
Whether the Italians have bettered
the British came become known on
the battlefield.

Rome, May 22.-Although the ac-

her former allies, Austria and Ger

firm belief of all nations. King Vic
tor has instructed his secretary to be-
gin the preparation of an official
