VORWARTS CONCERNING
 THE NEW NATIONL PARTY

The Socialist organ writes, in it's issue of October 13:
 There is no further room for doubt if ever any existed, that the new party takes it's stand opposite to the Reich stag majority, not with a view to heal ing differences of opinion, but with the deliberate intention of sowing dissen- sion. The latest war cry uttered against Kuhlmann's Alsace-Lorraine speech proves that the opposition of the new party will be equally directed against the Governments foreign pol icy. 4 Government, therefore, which permits such g party openly to pur- sue it's ends becomes a laughingstock. We personally have very short ans wer for the new party: Where the true majority of the German people rests can not be proved by the utter ances of a party press, subsidized and advertised by war-profiteering funds, not by organized demonstrations of 4OOO out of the 4,500,000 inhabitants of Greater Berlin. The fact of where the true majority rests will come out at the polls at the next general elect ion, to which, in spite of all the nation al party's shrieking we look forward with the greatest confidence"

AUSTRIAN AIMS AS
 DEFINED BY A
 SOCIALIST DEPUTY

In the course of recent debate in the Vienna Reichsrat the Czech So- cialist leader, Stransky, violently at tackled Germany and sharply criticized Count Czernin's peace program. Re Herring to Germany, Stransky said it was the fatal desire for the predomi- nance of the German nationality in Austria which had brought on war.
 But for that the concessions offered by Serbia would have been considered sufficient. Europe would stand a strong German Empires side by side, governed from Berlin. Perhaps, after all, Great Britain, France. and Ameri- ca are not so simple as to fight merely for the freedom of the Poles, Bohem- ians, and southern Slavs, but fight rather for political reasons, for se- curing the guaranty of an Austria in. dependent of Germany and not ruled from Berlin. It has been asserted that the alliance with Germany is in- dissoluble, but nothing on earth IS ln- dissoluble. Even if the union is so firm, circumstances may arise to rem der it's continuance impossible, be- cause they affect not only the policy but the actual existence Of the coun- try. Referring to Count Czernin, he called the counts peace conditions nothing but phrases. They were no conditions at all, but only designa. tion of the situation which should pre- vail after peace. They were not even as the count modestly claimed, his own ideas. but were made in Ameri- ca; that Is, they were President Will sons ideas put forth at time when America was at peace.
