Blames Russia for War.

Count Apponyi spoke at great length
OH the causes of the war, expressing re-
eret that Americans were inclined to at
tribute it to an attack by Austria on
Serbia and ignore Russia's real object of
gaining egress from the Black sea TO the
Mediterranean and establish Slav pro-
tectorate on the shores of the Adratc
In asserting that the war was due to a
premeditated attack by Russia. which had
been in preparation since the Russo
japanese war. Count Apponyi said
We HunSarianS feel that the struS-
gle for us is one of very existence.
There can never be any security for
western Europe so long as Russia is
allowed to play role in European af-
fairs. Her whole history is one OF con
quest to expand the territory under
her control. What must come to meet
this danger to Europe is a coalition of
the west European powers against
Russia.2

Little Change in Map.

The Hungarian leader voiced a
thought to which many high-place
men of Germany and Austro- Hungary
are giving utterance-that the next
thing on the cards after the war would
be some form of understanding be-
tween the two protagonists in the
present struggle = England and Ger
many.
The war. Count Apponyi says, will
produce comparatively little change in
the present map of Europe, assuming
that Austro-Hungary are successful.
There will be no need he said, to roll
up the map of Europe and draft new
set of boundaries. certainly not in the
west. In the east he looks for some
settlement of the Polish problem, un-
der which Poland will belong to the
west. as barrier against Russia.
In discussing the present situation
the opposition leader made his only
criticism of the government now in
power. Peoples spirits, he said, are
naturally affected by the fall of
Przemysl, an event which was mex
cusab BILE. The fortress itself was i'm
pregnable to assault. The military au-
thorities, he said, must have known at
the opening of the war that it would
be impossible to hold GaIicia against
the Russian masses. and that it would
be necessary to fall back slowly
through Galicia to the natural defen-
sive fronter-the Carpa tnans Prze-
mysi should have been provisioned for
at least a year. Why it was not, said
Count AppSnyi, would be a subject for

Underestimated Russians.

Another mistake attributed by the
the force which the
Russians could throw into the field
against ustro-Hungary at the begin
nIng of the war. 1t had been thought
that several months would pass before
Russia could complete her mobiliza-
tlon to fun strength, and a large Aus
tro-HunRarian army was detached for
operations against Serbia on this as
sumption. Russia was found, however,
to be already virtually on war foot
ing and ready OF pour her armies into
GaHcia from the very first. In view of
this condition. said the count, the Aus
tro- Hungarian leaders should have in
the beginning followed the policy now
adopted of leaving on the Serbia from
tier a force only strong enough to pro-
tect the border against invasion and
throwing against the Russians the
whole strength of the army In this
case the Russians, with their hundred
divisions. would not have been able TO
fall so Overwhelmingly on the forty or
army.
Count Apponyi said he did not admit
that Galicia had been lost to the dual
monarchy We have already driven
the Russians from Bukowina," he said
why not from GalIcia? Even taking
the extreme case OF the pessimsts and
granting that our armies are not able
To drive the Russians back on Russian
soil, ! would point out that the armies
of Germany and Austro- Hungary are
already in possession of several thou
sand square miles of Russian Poland

quite large as that of the parts Of
Galicia occupied by the Russians. but
the population is greater. In riches

BUDAPEST Hungary. April 2S.-Count
Albert Apponyi. the veteran Hungarian
opposition party leader. former minister
and president of parliament. who is per-
sonally widely known i'll the United
States because of his lecture tour of four
years ago, has received the correspondent
of the Associated Press and discussed
frankly not only present war conditions
in his country. but what the European
struggle may bring forth. He is thor

Vain Ambition of France.
I'VE iii Austria and Hungary have no
serious points of conflict with England
and France. France after 1870 had to
make an effort to regain her lost prov
nces from Germany. but she must now
see that the attempt is hopeless. She
has had the assistance of the strongest
to help her gain her desire and is farther
than ever from success.
1T would be possible, ] think. after
the war to reconcile her to the loss by
some concessions regarding the autonomy
of Alsace-I orraine and enable her to en-
ter the new coalition England, too,
would have to giv5 up her aspirations to
absolute naval superiority over all the
rest of the world-to dominance which
would enable her to dictate the affairs
of the world-and content herself with
the position of first naval power"

FOR BETTER DEFENSE
OF AMERICAN COASTS
Gen. John A. Johnston. President of
Army League, Points Out
Weaknesses.

Declaring that the coasts of the
enemy, Gen. John \. Johnston. presi-
dent of the Army League, today gave
out statement in which he urged
that steps be taken to increase the
size of the army without delay. He
said. in part:
The situation in the Dardanelles
should bring forcibly to the attention
of the people of this country the fact
that the mobile army is part of our
coast defense. Just AT present Turkey
is depending upon its field artillery,
cavalry and infantry to keep the Oar
danelles closed. Even if the fortihca-
tions and mines of the Dardanelles
should continue to resist the fleet or
the allies, the capture of CONSTANT
nople may not be prevented In fact.
il the mobile army of Turkey is driven
from the field, the fortifcations Will
be captured and the feet can sall
tinople will be at the mercy of the
guns of the English and French ships.
Would Strengthen Defenses.
There is no harbor in the United
States where permanent Notifications
can be as great factor in defending
city as the fortifications of the Dar-
danelles | am not attempting to de-
tract from the importance of fortifying
our important harbors
II think our permanent harbor fortifi-
should be strengthened and armed
with the most powerful guns. but /
wish to emphasZ the fact that is known
to all military authorities that harbor de-
fenses. which we inaccurately style coast
defenses. are practically useless unless
we have an effective and adequate mo-
bile army. not only to support them, but
to protect the intermediate coast line
An enemy could land large army at al
most any intermediate point along our
extensive coast and not only destroy our
large cities, but even capture our fortif-
cations.

That we have not a sufficient force to
man our harbor Notifications and prac-
ticaly no mobile army to support them.

annual report of the Secretary of War
a nd his instructions to the War College to
furnish him with report on the entire
question of coast defense which, by the
nature of our position among other world
powers. will deal with the entire question
of atonal defense.
II am not an alarmist. for this is sim

dition of national defense in presence of

Now she has lost so many cannon and
has ftred away so much ammunition
that she is barely able TO hold her own.

America that this would be impossible
