sage. "In Austria the situation ap-
pears difficult" According TO a cor

Of military operations. On the other
hand the letter of Prof. Lammasch.
the text of which has not been pub
lished by any paper. but which puts
clearly the question OF NIittel Eu-

raised a great commotion in the

son an opportunity to do something
to help win the war and at the same
time benefit himself, for the work
