VIENNA, via Basel. Oct. i9-Steps for
the organization Of Austria on fed

peror Charles yesterday. The plan
does not include the union OF Austrian
Poland with THE independent Polish
State" the Emperor declared. The city
OF Trieste and the Trieste region will
be treated separately. "ln conformity

Emperor Charles addressed the Aus
trian land ,end sea forces at The same
time, expressing his firm confidence
that the concord which has existed in
the army and the navy until now will
exist for the future FOR the well-being
Of the new confederated Austria"
The manifesto to the Austrian people
reads:
Since have ascended the throne
have tried TO make II my duty to assure
70 all my peoples the peace so ardenty
desired and 10 point the way to the
Austrian peoples OF prosperous de
velopment mhampered by obstacles
which brutal force creates against in
tellectual and economic prosperity.
The terrible struggles in the ~s0rld
war have thus far made the work OF
peace impossible The heavy sacrifices
OF the war should assure 10 us an hon
Orable peace, on the threshold OF
which, by The help Of God, we are TO-
dav.
We must Therefore undertake with
out delay the reorganization Of our
country on q natural and therefore solid
basis. Such a question demands that
The desires OF the Austrian peoples be-
harmOnlzed and realized.
7 am decided 10 accomplish this work
with the free collaboration OF my peO-
pies in the spirit and principles which
our allied monarchs have adopted in
their offer OF peace.
Austria must become, In conformity
with the will Of its people, a c0nfed-
crate State, in which each nationality
shall form on the territory which II
occupies its own local autonomy.
This does not mean that we are al
ready envisaging the union Of the Po-
lish territories OF Austria with the in
dependent Polish State.
The city OF Trieste with all rs sur
roundings shall in conformity with the
desire Of its population be treated sep
