Disintcsration of Observation-Disclosures

| l has seemed inevitable from the beginning
j that the dual empire, founded upon oppres-
sion and maintained by a rule of iron, should
one day dissolve. AS long as this conglome-
rate nation had peace, it might go it's way,
holding its unrelated peoples together and
preserving its autonomy, but once ut war,
these peoples might have been expected to
seek their opportunity to revolt to assert
their independence and to throw off the bur-
dens which they were too weak to resist as
long rs they remained subject to an over
powering force.
Now 1T appears that revolution and disso-
luton for Austria-IIungary has come. That
nation seems to exist only on the map 1t
has Il geographical outline, but it has little
else. Its strength has been Slapped by con-
tinuous fighting. Its armies have become
weakened by assertions, by disease and by
defeat. Its civilian population has become
Impoverished by hunger and privation. In
such state it is impossible for the Magyar

mated the Czechs the Slovaks, the Slavs the
Bohemians and the Slovenes to maintain
their rule
