RoME, July Alt is practically GER
tain that the Pope will make an appeal
for peace next month on the occasion
of the third anniversary Of the war.
There is good reason to believe that
instead OF the usual general exhortation
TO the rulers and people of countries at
war, the Pope this year will explicitly
allude to mediation which should be
resorted to only for the purpose of mi
tiating direct negotiations between bel
llgerents.
The main obstacle to peace consists
in bringing about such negotiations, as
neither group OF belligerents will openly
solicit peace nor accept conditions pub
llely offered or specified. While not
Offering mis- services as mediator. the
Pope Is expected to point out the most
practical way Of fastening the opening
Of direct negotiations.
Pope. Plea to United states.
II is reported as possible that the
Pope will suggest that two nations not
technically at war should resume diplo-
matte relations with the object of rem
dering possible direct negotiations be-
tween belligerents. Such a suggestion
would clearly allude to the United States
and Austria
sources in Turkey, available at the Vati-
can. the Premier. Talaat Bey. Is ex-
pected to resign in order to make place
for a national Cabinet composed OF
representatives Of liberal parties who
are inclined toward peace. Enver Pasha
may possibly resign from his position
as Minister Of War. retaining supreme
command of the army. II is hoped that
the change of Government will enable
Turkey to make overtures for peace
without detsching herself entirely from
the Central Empires.
The political amnesty granted by thu
Emperor of Austria is far from impFov
ing the situation In the Dual Monarchy
II has rendered 1t worse as 1t deprive'
the Government of a working majorit,
since the Poles, Czechs and slavs ar
now united in opposing the Cabinet an
are demanding concessions whic
amount to autonomy.
Angry at Germany.
AS a result the Germans and Hun
garians advocate an energetic policy an
oppose concessions, which, as they pre-
dicted weaken the resistance OF tn
Dual Monarchy.
They openly blame the Emperor
whom they hold responsible for endan
Eering the safety of the empire. Reve
lations made by members of Parliamen
about economic conditions in Austria
which should have remained secret, ar
regarded here as greatly benehting tn
enemy, since they indicated that b
merely prolonging the war Austria
exhaustion would be inevitable. Ger
manys help, which might have saved tn
Dual Monarchy. is now considere
greatly impaired. as It Is preposterou
to hope that the Allies would aGcer
