NOW SEES NO
INDICATIONS
OFHONESTY|N.
TEUTON TALK.

Peace talk in the wake Of Austro-
German diplomacy in the near East
and Russia, does not interest Wash
ington now.
That was the very plain answer
given by officials and diplomats to-
day To the belated reply of the
Austrian Minister of Foreign At
fairs, Czernin, to President Wilson's
last war aims address. America
hasn't time to talk peace.
No Honest Desire.
President Wilson may be said' Of
ficially. to feel that there is no in
dieation that either Germany or Aus
tria are honestly desirous OF estab-
fishing the basis for just and last
ing peace. He has searched their
previous peace utterances for indica-
tions OF this.
In the speech OF Count Czernin
some weeks ago, he thought he saw
the possibility OF honest peace desire.
Since then Czernins complete sur
render to the will of the German
junkers and his drastic peace terms
imposed on Roumania, have eNtin-
Guished that hope OF the President.
Hypocrisy Seen.
In the absence of the official text OF
czernin's latest peace discussion it was
impossible for officials to discuss the
merits OF the Austrisn's position. On
the face of the speech at this time
there was an inclination to see hypoc-
risy in the utterance and a possible
effort 10 resume peace talk at time
when America is about to launch her
greatest war effort.
II the full text OF the Czernin speech
has reached him by tomorrow it lis
possible the President may refer to
IL in his speech at Baltimore Saturday
night. The President has not yet
begun work on this address.
