Another Deception Exposed

| \ VERY respectable group of allied states
men. including the President OF the
United States, led OF misled into the
belief that Austria was honest in her repudia-
| ton OF all peace terms based upon the an
neXation of enemy territory. Count Czernin,
| Austrian Minister Of Foreign Affairs, in two
declarations had stated that his government
and his couatry we're opposed d land grab
bling. and even Tucked upon indernities as
more than could he demanded by airy vic
torious belligerent this war.
Austria seemed to be keeping the faith in
her relations with Russia She reached out
Tor no areas in that country. She exacted no
| EdeE,ni'.es from the Russians, and even ap-
peared TO frown virtuously upon the rapacity
, or her allies in Germany So impressed was
the President with this sane and sensible view
OF Austrian policies that in his most recent
address to Congress he pontedly diTeren-
tiatcd between the attitude of Austria and
that OF Germany In the Brest Litovsk nego-
tiations
1t now appears that all this was premature.
1t appears that Austria is actuated nv the
same greed as Germany, only that she Is ex-

which, If accepted, will rob the Balkan king
dom not only of her coastline on the Black
Sea, hut which will SO "rcctify" Roumanian
boundaries on the west that Austria will
take such territory there as she may desire.
IT Roumania does not accept these degrad-

upon her that She will be wiped from the
map In other words, if Roumania is will

that Bulgarian greed may be satisfied and is
willing to have her frontiers on the west
rectiicd,' that Austrian greed may be
satla,ed' she may save herself complete an
limitation. This is the pleasant alternative
which is open to the Roumanians, beset ON
all sides by enemies and removed from the
possibility OF assistance from her allies
| These generous terms of peace are offered
| by Austria, according to official information
they come from the government which
would not dcbase itself by appropriating the

Federal agents continue to make numerous
arrests throughout the country OF enemy
aliens for activities which clearly place them
within the class OF spies. A recent instance
is the arrest in New York City OF a German
alien who had concealed in his homo ten
..rifles. twenty revolvers and $1,000 rounds. of
ammunition. Just what disposition will be
made of his case remains to be seen. but If
treated as leniently as others arrested with
equally as strong discriminating evidence
against them, he will be given only a short
prison term. Summary trial by court-martial
and execution should follow all such arrests.
1t is the only method that will put an end to
such activities.

The Archbishop of York declared in ser
mon at Trinity Church, New York that the
day Of extreme wealth for the few and
poverty for the many is about ended. He
is perhaps right as to conditions of inequality
after the close Of the war. if the allies win it..
but from the way wealth is being wasted,
the burden OF the wars cost will bear
heavily on rich and poor alike for genera
ton to come, and for the masses In many
countries to escape from conditions closely
approaching poverty will be very difficult.
