Austrian Autocracy Is
Begging the Populace
To Cling to Germany

London, May 3.-(Correspond-
ence of The Associated Press "A
vigorous newspaper campaign is in
progress in Austria with the object
of impressing on the German
population of that country the alb
selute necessity of linking the des-
tiny of Austria Hungary with that
of Germany.
Even independent paperse like the
Zeit are pointing out with much
vigor that however much Austrians
may feel inclined to resent mani
festations OF German arrogance and
superiority, this is not the time to
resent this tone, which is part of
the north German nature 1t would
be more TO the purpose, says the
Zeit, to recognize that without
Germany's backing there is but a
poor prospect OF Austria Hungary
cutting any important figure at the
coming peace conference.
The Zeit points out with an air
of resignation that the same holds
good with regard to Austria's flu
ture economic development. The
has been too heavily hit
and its resources too far exhausted
for thought of independent econom-
lc action apart from Germany.
No extension of Austro- -Hungari-
an territories into the Balkans is to

operation, and even the thought
that the result may be OF more ben
eft to Germany than TO Austria
cannot prevent the conviction that
there is no other way of meeting
the situation than by cooperation.
The Vienna Tageblaat in an ar
ticle along the same lines, says:
DO not let us deceive ourselves.
This tone of antagonism to Ger
many is heard in many places.
There are vast bodies of our pop
ulation which still fail to see any
value in our alliance with Germany,
and which even after the evidence
OF the past four years of faithful
friendship on the part OF our ally
resent the intimate connection be-
tween us and our dependence on
one another.
We would do we'll TO go to school
to Germany. Germany is our true
friend, even if she is not always
a pleasant one.
Whatever people may say or
think, Austria-Eungary's future is
by the side of Germany. This cam
not be avoided. no matter how much
hatred we display, no matter how
much we give uttcrance to our
envy"

WAR SUMMARY

Committed, as they are, to a con
tinuation of heavy fighting on the
western front, the Germans appar-
emily are taking their full time be-
fore beginning another forward op-
Grafton on the line from Soissons
north to the Belgian coast. In two
weeks the enemy has made only one
determined attack and this was re-
pulsed by the allied forces south
west of Ypres.
Along the vital sectors Of these
salients driven by the Germans since
March p, the enemy artillery has
been active, but there are no signs
Of renewed infantry activity in
strength. North of KENNEL,
around Serre, on the line between
Albert and Arras; and on the
southern end of the British line
across the Somme and on the
French sector Immediately south,
big guns of the Germans are hurl-
ing thousands of shells into the
allied positions.
Allied airmen are taking advan-
tage OF every opportunity to invade
enemy territory. Many more tons
OF bombs have been dropped on inn
portant railway centers and other
military targets behind the German
lines in Flanders and Picardy. In
aerial fighting the British have
brought down six more enemy ma
chimes. While British naval air
men bomb the German submarine
bases at Zeebrugge and Ostend,
army fliers continue the aerial bonn
bardment of Bruges.
West of Montdider in Picardy
and northwest of Toul, American
artillerymen are harassing the Ger
mans with heavy fire. Considerable
damage is believed to have been
caused on both sectors.
The announcement from Ottawa
that the American army was not to
be employed fully against the Ger
mans until it was a complete organ
ization, it is declared in London.
was due to an error, which has
been corrected.
Lively fighting continues in the
Monte Corner (ltalian) region,
south OF Asiago, with the Italians
throwing back repeated Austrian
efforts to regain the summit of the
mountain. Elsewhere on the Ital-
ian front the artillery duel goes on.
but there are no indications that the
enemy is ready to start hi, heralded
attack.

ness for the defense. the two living
members OF the triangle which re-
suited in the death OF Mrs. Roberts
when she refused TO give up her
husband, silently watched the Ell
forts to complete the jury.
Twenty prospective jurors. most
ly farmers OF advanced years. occu-
pied the jury box. Seven of these
had been tentatively accepted by
both sides.
Questions hurled at the jurors by
attorneys for the defense indicated
that the plea OF insanity would be
the basis Of the battle to save Miss
Lusk. To oppose this the state is
depending on the testimony OF DR..
r. +. Davies. now a captain in the
