WILSON MAY TAKE PEACE
INITIATIVE, APPOINT SAYS

Continued from Pare One.
there is n strong war party In England and
France. AS long as this party hopes to
parcel out Austria Hungary and Turkey
TO the Allies there can be no peace, but
when Il is realized that we cannot be
crushed or divided even this party will
have to make peace. We are not conduct
ms this war as war OF conouest--but
some Of the Allies are"
County Apponyi paused and demanded:
But tell me, who was elected President
Of the United States7"
The interviewer said latest reports in
dcated Wilson.
81 hope It is wilson," Count Apponyi
responded. we know Wilson might
say we could be no worse or with him
but we know nothing about Hughes"
do you think Wilson could do something
now TO help bring belligerents together7"
he was asked.
"I think n Wilson is elected. and he no
longer has the worries Of the campaign
he may prove an altogether different Presi-
dent" the Count replied.
II think no will see the opportunity when
the moment arrives. America Is psychology
ically the leading neutral nation. America
still might play the leading role in peace
Count Apponyl greatly resembles former
Senator Isaac " Stephenson, OF Wisconsin,
in personal appearance-tall and straight
with a gray beard and bright eyes. He is
well acquainted with American life and
customs. lt was In recalling his visits there
that the Count added
'I am so glad to see that we are send
ing a new Ambassador TO America. Bern
storff has had no support. 1t Ia difficult
for America to understand us II we have
no Ambassador there.
After all We want peace with America
we want TO be friendly. We all recognize
America. as the greatest neutral nation.

national peace which ends this war is made
81 don't know Tarnowsld, our new Am
bnssador personally, but I am told he Is
one OF our ablest diplomats"
Reverting 20 President Wilson's oppor-
tunity to play role in peace proceedings,
it was apparent from Count Apponyfs eX-
pressions that he did not believe Wilson
should move at once.
The psychological moment he said. has
not yet arrived. Rumanla must first be
punished for treason. The Rumanian cam
paign is progressing we'll. within a short
time our armies viii be through Rumania--
then the Russians in Galica will be in
bad fix.
Then the last card OF the Allies war
party will he destroyed. They will have to
realize that we cannot he paroeled out
Then they Will realize all we want is secur-
ity against Russia and Serbia"

He knows that other has ever given such

He knows that, If he wishes, no one can match the
things he do with his Super-Six.
