Most of the London newspapers admit that the United States and other neurals have real grievance on account of the change in the rules that both sides to the European conflict have made in the manner of warfare. If Sir Edward Grey has been unable abso- lutely to convince his own countrys newspapers how can he expect to convince the American press? How ever the London papers see in the situation nothing that cannot be worked out to the satisfaction of both sides and they all express the hope and conviction that 1t will be SO worked out

Such an attack, the Journals cor

obtain ammunition, which is needed
badly. Another purpose Of such d

be the hope that it might turn the

foreigners was attacked by Mrs. Ethel
c. Mackenzie Of San Francisco. in a
brief filed today in the supreme court.
She was denied the right to vote in
San Francisco on the ground that un :
der the federal law she had lost her
American citizenship by marrying
Gordon Mackenzie. a subject of Great
Britain, living in California. Her ar
gument is that Congress cannot mere
~. because she has entered into mar
riagc, take away her citizenship as
long as she remains in the United
States. She points to the states
granting full or partial woman suf-
frage as evidence that husband and
wife are no longer to be considered as
politically one. with their identity
merged into one and that the hus-
bands. On account of the European
war she urges that the citizenship is
of increased value.

Think A SEPARATE
PEACE BY AUSTRIA
HIGHLY IMPROBABLE

). Rome, April 5, 915 p. M.-Via Par
us, April 6, $50 A. Man effort By
Austria to conclude a separate peace
is considered highly improbable by
THE Giornale D'Italia which declares
the military organization Of the dual
Imonarch is in the hands Of Germany
forming with her "only one body il
mot one soul" The paper argues
there that Germany might prevent
even materially any effort of Aus
tria to come to terms separately, with
the nations now arrayed against her.
Such a step also would be highly
humliating to Austria in her rela-
lions with Serbia, the Giornale D'Italia
says. as well as a confession that the
central empires considered themselves
defeated.
Austria. the paper says, represented
a military embarrassment for Ger
many, but she represents also large
contingent of men and materials di-
verting the Russian avalanche from
Germany. Germany might permit ne
gotiations only if she desired them
to be the first step toward a general
peace.
