SAY AUSTRIA AS STATE

lprived of every thought of dominat
ing the world before the war can end
signdr Bissolati, civil commissioner for
war, socialist leader. soldier and one of
the most powerful figures in the Ital.
ian cabinet, told the United Press to,
day.
TO consent to peace now would be
an act of treason on the part of any
allied nation, he declared.
81 am convinced that War Secretary
Lloyd;George's statement to the United
Press and Premier Asquith's S words in
The house of commons exactly interpret
the thoughts and express the firm re-
solve OF all the allies, said the Ital.
ian cabinet member.
The peace TO which the whole world
aspires after so many horrors and sacri-
fices must be real and lasting, not a
mere truce. Civilization must safeguard
Itself against attempts similar 10 the
one against which she is now reacting
with all her strength. This means that
we must create in Europe such condi-
tions as to render it impossible for Ger.
many to resume her criminal designs.
81, therefore, think that any state
or states of the entente who would to.
day harbor the thought of peace would
be guilty of an act of treason. Rather
than accept a peace contaminated bv
the germ of other wars, it would have
been better not to embark on the pres
ent war at all.
"Thc deadly germ of war can only
be killed by destroying Austria as a
state and depriving Germany of ev.
cry illusion of predominancy, 1t is nee
cssary to proclaim this fearlesslv and
