WASHINGTON ASSERTS NO
ADVANCE TOWARD PEACE. MADE

Washington, Jan. 25.-Based on the
short cabled outlines OF the speeches
OF the German and Austrian pSemiers
today to their respective parliaments.
the opinion Is expressed by officials
here that no substantial advance to-
wards the final peace sought by ali
has resulted from these declarations.
1t is true that expressions OF Count
Czernin, the Austrian premier, appear
to be more corciliatory in tone than
previous utterances from that quarter,
but beyond vague statements that the
possibilities of peace negotiations are
contained in the address of President
Wilson and Lloyd-George. there IL no
the extreme contentious OF the military
elements in the central states.
The German premier's address in
deed is couched In the language of a
victorious general and 1t Is noted that
no where does he specifically abandon
the claim for indemnity and territory.
In fact, from the cabled abstract, II
appears that he has become even more
incorporating and militaritic in his
position that he was when he assumed
office and first address the reichstag.
The Remuneration by Count Czernin,
the Austrian premier OF any claim
against Russia for indemnity or an
nexation, 1t is noted. does not extend
to other nations. As for Poland, t.Ac
declaration that the population would
decide it's own fate, is read here in
the light OF the action already taken
by the Central powers to set up a
sham kingdom OF Poland which In
reality is nothing more than a depend
ency of Austria and Germany.
-
the belligerents over Alsace-Lorraine
continues. Is evident from Won Hert-
ling's speech, for his declaration that
there could be no talk OF the occasion
Of Alsace-Lorraine" is the answer OF
L1oyd-George's demand that these
provinces must be permitted to decide
their own fate and President Wilson's
expressed statement in the the eighth
point of his fourteen peace aims that
''the wrong done to France by Prussia
in 1871 In the matter OF Alsace-Lor-
raine should be righted."
While the German premier appears
to commend President wilson's decia-
ration OF freedom OF the seas, he passes
without comment over the very I'm
portant condition in Mr.. wilson's
statement which denies such freedom
to nations which may break treaties
ana require punlsnmenr py orner ma
tons. This condition was expressly
framed TO meet the case OF q country
like Germany which brings on an I'M
just war ana therefore denies Won
Hertlings demand for FREQ navigation.
during time or war rs we'll an in
peace
The German premier's concise state
ment that the question OF Russian
evacuation concerns only GERMANY
and Russia Is in direct conflict with
President Wilson's sympathetic ex-
pressions in regard to Russia, as well
as his precise demands. that the peo-
pie OF occupied territories may ar
range their own future.

Austria Hungary such an advances

Austria Hungary such an advance
would be welcomed
Interpretation Of the right of free
action of peoples had caused a differ
ence between RUSSIA and Germany,
said Count Czernin, but compromise
must be reached. The differences Of
view were not great enough to justify
abandonment of the peace negotia-
tions.
Commenting on the fourteen points
in President Wilson's war aims speech,
Count Cze-nin said, according to an
Exchange Telegraph dispatch from
Copenhagen, that Austria Hungary
and America were virtually in agree
ment regarding the great principles
for new arrangements after the war.
Count Czernin qualified his state
ment respecting agreement with some
of President Wilson's proposals by
saying that Austria Hungary would
support Germany.
