WILSON REJECTS
PLEA OF AUSTRIA
CONDITIONS MADE CLEARER BY
ACCEPTANCE OF WHICH
WAR MAY EE ENDED.
DYNASTY IS IN GRAVE OANGER
Federalizing OF Austrian States iP
Vain and Desperate Effort to
Save Dual Monarchy.

Washing ton.-On the eve, apparA
emily, OF the coming OF the peace note
from Germany, President Wilson has
rejected the plea Of Austria-Hungary
tor an armlstice and peace legotia,
tons and ia doing so has made clear
er the conditions which the central
powers must meet to end the war.
In a note made public soon after it
was we'll on the way to Vienna the
President in effect says there can be
no talk OF peace with the Austro-Hun-
basis of complete liberty for Czecho-
Slovaks and other subject nationali-
ties as free members OF the family OF
nations He refuses to entertain the
suggestion for this
reason without discussing the military
questions dealt with in the reply to
Germany.
The Vienna government asked for
: Quotations on the basis of the presi-
dents announced program of peace.
mentioning the speech of January s.
last, in which the President said the
peoples of Austria Hungary should be
accorded the freest opportunity for
autonomous development. The reply
says this is impoSsible;. that the
CZecho-Siovak national council has
been recognized as a de facto bellig-
erent government, the justice of the
nation2listic aspirations of the Jugo-
Slavs has been recognized and mere
autonomy no longer can be accepted.
This declaration which may be far
reaching in its effect upon Austria
Hungary. where long erSlaved peoples
apparently are nearly ready to sweep
away the hated dual monarchy and
the Hapsburg dynasty clears up what
some critics of the Presidents policy
have pointed to as a source of end
less controversy in his program of
peace 1t comes one day after the
proclamation of Emperor Karl federal
iz:Ng the Austrian states in a desper-
ate effort to save his government at
home and at the same time prepare
the way for peace.

certainly were game little devils, and
came right back at us.
So most Of the pOilus threw the
dope at Fritz and fought the coolies
hand to hand.

In q while, during q heavy lombard
ment, the fatigue-uSually corporals
guard-wOuld get killed in the COM
municatiOn trenches and we would not
have time to get out to the fatigue and
rescue the grub they were bringing.
Sometimes you could not find either
the fatigue or the grub when you got
to the point where they had been hit.
But, as say. we were we'll fed most
of the time, and got second and third
helpings until we had to open our
belts. But as the Limeys say: Cav
blimey, the chuck was rough" They
served a thick soup oGmeat and vege-
tables In bowls the size OF wash ba-
sins, black coffee with or without
sugar-mostly without and plenty
of bread.
Also, we had preserves in tins. just
like the Limeys. If you send any par
GELS over, do not put any apple and
plum jam in them or the man who gets
1t will let Fritz shoot him. Ask any
Limey soldier and he will tell you the
same. / never thought there was so
much jam in the world. No Mans
Land looked like a city dump. Most
OF US took 1t, after q while, just to
get the bread. Early in the war they
used the tins to make bombs of, but
that was before Mills came along with
his hand grenade. Later on they fat
tened out the tins and lined the dug
outs with them.
Each man carried an emergency ra-
ton in his bag. This consisted OF bully
beef, biscuits, etc. This ration was
never used except In real emergency,
because no one could tell when it
might mean the difference between
life and death to him. When daylight
catches a man In a shell hole or at a
listening post out in No Mans Land
he does not dare TO crawl back to his
trench before nightfall, and then is the
time that his emergency ration comes
In handy. Also, the stores failed to
reach US sometimes, as I have said,
and we had to use the emergency
ratiOnS.
Sometimes we received raw meat
and fried it in our dugouts. We built

REPORTS ARE CURRENT THAT
GERMANY HAS ALSO REPLIED

Notwithstanding TO unofficial re-
ports reaching Amsterdam, the Ger
man reply to President Wilson has
been delivered 10 the Swiss minister
in Berlin. says an Exchange Telegraph
dispatch from Amsterdam.
In the note Germany consents to
the evacuation of Belgium.
Germany protests against the
charges of cruelty in the Presidents
note and says she was forced into
submarine warfare by the allied
blockade.
The German government, it adds,
denies responsibility for the loss OF
women and children on torpedoed
passenger ships, but to advance peace
Germany is prepared Professionally to
stop unrestricted submarine warfare.
Finally, the note disputes the right
of foreign powers to NEEDLE with
German internal affairs and declares
Germany should enjoy the same right
of self-determination as other nations.

So sat In the seat and trained the

the captain called the observation

gave him the range. Then the captain

placed the nose Of a shell in a fuse
adjuster and turned the handle until
1t reached scale 4128. This set the
fuse to explode at the range given
Then they slammed the she'll into the
breech, locked it shut and Brown sent
his best to Fritz.
The barrel slipped back, threw out
the shell case at our feet and returned
over a. cushion Of grease. Then we
received the results by telephone from
the observation tower. After he had
fired twelve shots the captain said to
Brown, "You should never waste your
self in infantry, son." And old dopey
Brown just stood there and grfnned.
That was Brown every time. He
knew about more things than you could
think of. He had read about gunnery
and fooled around at Dixmude until
they let him play with the ''75's," and
