THE AUSTRIAN PARLIAMENT
Baltimore SUM

Austria is having her troubles just
now, internal as we'll as external. The
fierce and successful Italian offensive
has cost her prestige and large losses
in men just at time when unrest and
popular demands for reform nave be-
come pronounced, if not threatening.
The session of the Austrian Parlia-
ment can scarcely be without special
significance at juncture in which the
electoral-reform crisis in Hungary and
the Italian victories are occupying pub
lie attention. Count -Andrassy, who
succeeds Count Tisza as Hungarian
Premier, is no particular friend Of
Germany, and should the young Aus
trian Emperor be called on to assent
r % a return to- less autocratic policy
than has prevailed during the war the
situation may become exceedingly
hard to manage. 1t is more difficult
to drive Austria's team of varied ma
tionalities and to keep them on the
track, and pulling together than it is
to drive the German chariot. Even in
division there is certain unity of ma
tional purpose and feeling in the lat
ter; but, at the best, government In
Austria is a problem of reconciling
irreconcilables.
Russia, for the moment, has been
intoxicated by the vodka of revolution.
If it were possible to separate Austria
from Germany by peace proposition
| that would enable her to reserve some
measure of territorial Importance,
while doing justice to Italy and to the
conflicting race elements in her Dor
ders, the war problem might become
much more simple The Allied threat
of partition probably holds her more
closely to Germany now than anything
else. If her new sovereign saw way
