MUST ADMIT GUILT
BEFORE PEACE COMES
By the Associated Press

Paris, Sept. 27-The hope that there
will be no question of peace with the
Central Powers until they have been
brought to Gdmit their guilt. was en-
pressed by Nikoia Pachitch. the Ser
bian Premier. in statement given out
by him here yesterday. He voiced this
hope after having pointed out that the
Allied successes on all the batt!etields
had opened up prospect OF the end OF
a struggle that had been imposed upon
the world by the Germanic Powers.
Premier pachtch said he was glad
that the great Allied Powers had pro-
claimed their SympathieS with the
liberation of the CzeCho-S -Slavs and the
Poles and the formation by those ma
tionalitieS of independent States and he
hoped that the Allies also would rerog-
nize the right OF liberated Serbia and all
her sons the Juso-Slavs) TO be united
in an independent national existence.
\ declaration to this effect. the Premier
argued, would be timely now, as 1t would
paralyze all the intrigues engineered by
Austria Hungary against the Serbian
national union and at the same time
against the general policy of the Allies.
