WASHINGTON. Jan. 25.-No ad- vance toward peace is seen here in the speeches made today in Berlin and Vienna by the German chancellor and Austrian foreign minister. upon the war aims of the central pbwers.
 Formal comment will be withheld until thr texts are put out by an authorized German agency but after reading press accounts of the speeches officials expressei the opsn-tn that they were framed largely for internal consumption with the incidental pur- roses tC plant seeds of discOrd among the allies by suggestions of separate resotiaticns and 10 appeal to the sympathies of the radical socialist ele nents in the enemy's countries.
 Regarding the desisI 70 affect the internal conditions of Germany and Austria one official suggested that the striking differences of tore in the two notes. the German,being almost defian- tly aggressive. and the Austrian com promising and insinuation- were cal culated precisely to meet the varying conditions in the two empires In Germany. strengthened by the Rus sian collapse resulting in the transfer Of vast forces from the eastern to the western front the militaristic party is in tie asceldency and the chancel- Tor. abandoning the conciliatory at titude he occupied when he assumed office. apparently voices the will of the military leaders.
 In Austria.
 In Austria the working people are reported in incipient rebellion and the demands for peace at almost any price srs insistent and clamorous This is the explanation found here for the for eign minister's vague promises of neace without annexations or indemni- ties. and his special bid for negOtia- tions direct with America.
 It is noted. however. that the speeches are inter-dependent; that Austria will not negotiate without Germsny's consent and approval. and that Germany gives her sanction to what has been done in Austria. Both spokeSmen express confidence in the success of the peace associations with Russia in contrast to the bitter den- UEeiation of the conduct Of the Tau- tons by Leon Trotzky. the BOlsheviki minister for foreign affairs. This at tituda officials and diplomats believe tc be the result of apprehension tha- the confession at this moment of the failure cf the Brest-I .itovsk negotia- tions would exasnerate the German and Austrian publics beyond the safe ty point

 Tn some uarters there was a dis position to find a grain of hope in the concession by both speakers that there were points in the utterances of TlOyd-George and President Wilson that might be acceptable to the Ger manic powers and afford the basis of further discussions But other off cials insited that thie was only anoth- CT demonstration of the truth of Pres ident Wilson's statement in his ai- dress 10 congress. that it was the Drac- tice of German diplomacy to mislead bv declaring adherence 10 large prin- ciDles and then neutralize them by in- sistence upon details of quite another character
 The present belief Of the officials is hat there is not the slightest prob ability of a compliance bv the United States and the allies with the final demand of the German chancellor for the submission of them of new prOpos- als for peace
